InLife is Strange: Double Exposure’s third chapter, Max’s primary agenda is making up for the horrendous way the last chapter ended. You know, the whole “caught on camera pointing a gun at Safi” thing? To do that, she needs tomeet up with Moses at the Observatoryand show off her powers.

After the time-swapping fun is done, Moses is on board. But, Max has a bigger problem, asAlderman’s doppelganger shows up. Then, the real Alderman shows up, brandishing a gun. Then the two Aldermans touch and it causes big problems for both Aldermen. So, should Max try to save him? Or let him face the consequences alone?

What Happens If You Help Alderman? Or Refuse?

In both scenarios, the two versions of Alderman disappear into a chronological black hole. This leaves Moses and Max shook.

Moses begins researching Alderman, to see if there’s any record of him existing and willtext Max throughout the rest of the chapter to update her on his findings. Here’s the most chilling part:

So, regardless of what you choose to do, the results are the same for Alderman. Henever existed.
