Police News

"Police News" is the twenty-fifth chapter in Heavy Rain.
== Overview ==
In this chapter, Korda is interrogated and Grace Mars reports her worst fears about Ethan, or if Korda escaped in "Covered Market," Jayden and Blake take a phone call on Korda's status, then take Grace's report.
== Description ==
The chapter opens in the interrogation room of the police station, where Gary is interrogating Miroslav Korda about the Origami Killer case. Korda tells Gary that he only ran from Blake and Jayden because he had forgotten to report back to his parole officer and didn't want to go back to prison. Behind the one-way mirror in a different room, Blake, Jayden, and Ash are watching the interrogation take place. Ash tells Blake that Korda has an alibi for at least three of the murders so it couldn't possibly be him. The phone rings; Ash picks it up, then tells Blake that Ethan's ex-wife, Grace, is at the precinct and wants to speak to him.
Grace proceeds to tell Blake and Jayden that late one night, when she and Ethan were still married (after Jason was killed and soon after Ethan came out of his coma), he left until about three in the morning. When he returned, he spoke to her about "drowning and the rain," and she felt as though it wasn't really him speaking to her. She goes on to say that there was an announcement about another victim of the Origami Killer the following morning, and tearfully begs Blake to find her son. Despite her making a point to say that the incident may have no connection to the murders, her statement sparks Blake's belief that Ethan is in fact the Origami Killer.
This chapter is directly connected to the chapter "Shrink and Punches," but in spite of having no real gameplay, it stands on its own.
If you fail to capture Korda in the chapter "Covered Market," the opening of this chapter will change. It starts with Norman standing next to Blake while he's on the phone asking if they found Korda. It's then revealed that Korda has an alibi for two of the killings. Ash tells Blake that Shaun's mother wants to speak with him, and the chapter continues from that point with no differences.

== Trivia ==
* This is the first chapter that is not playable - it is more like a cutscene.
* This is the second chapter where the opening may differ depending on previous actions (the first being "Covered Market").
* This is the last appearance of Grace Mars, not counting two of the possible endings ("Ethan's Grave" or "Innocent").
* It is unknown why Grace claims that the incident with Ethan happened "a few months back," when Ethan mentions in "Welcome, Norman" that he and Grace have been separated for six months. Grace also mentions that the morning after Ethan came home, another victim of the Origami Killer was announced; her statement would mean that these events happened during the summer, when no new victims would have been taken (as the victims are all murdered in the fall). It is possible that she made the story up, or that she simply didn't give the police an accurate timeline of events.
* Despite the fact that this chapter is narrated from Norman Jayden's point of view, it uses Madison Paige's loading screen.
