The Shark

"The Shark" is the thirty-third chapter in Heavy Rain.
==Overview==
In this chapter, Ethan Mars undertakes the fourth of the five trials that he has to complete in order to save his son Shaun.
==Description==
With the gun from the shoebox in hand, Ethan arrives at an apartment owned by Brad Silver, a drug dealer he has been instructed to kill. He holds Brad at gunpoint, but when he hesitates to pull the trigger, Brad grabs a shotgun and starts shooting up his own apartment as he chases Ethan around. If Ethan avoids getting shot until Brad runs of ammo, he can then choose whether to kill or spare the dealer.
==Walkthrough==
==Transcript==
==Impact==
* Failure: Ethan will not get the rest of the letters, which means he will always have to guess the correct location or depend on Madison to tell him about the location.
* Completion: Ethan will get the next set of letters.
==Characters==
* Ethan Mars
* Brad Silver
* Sarah and Cindy Silver (in photo)
==Trophies==
* I'm a Killer... – Kill the drug dealer.
* I'm Not a Killer! – Do not kill the drug dealer.
* Trial Master – Completing this trial successfully contributes toward earning this trophy.
==Naming==
It can be assumed that this trial is called The Shark due to how sharks are stereotypically powerful, violent creatures that are at the top of the food chain.
==Trivia==
* A concept sketch by Morgan Yon depicts Ethan stabbing Brad to death in the bathroom of his apartment.
* In spite of Brad's shotgun easily being able to inflict lethal harm, Ethan cannot die in this chapter. If he fails too many QTEs during the chase sequence, Brad will throw him out of the apartment and tell him to "go die somewhere else."
* According to an interview with Pascal Langdale, the development team initially debated over how violent Ethan could be during this chapter. Langdale argued that Ethan pistol-whipping Brad if he spares him was reasonable because Ethan "isn't particularly happy" about being chased through the apartment and shot at.
* Despite leaving DNA evidence in the apartment, Ethan faces no apparent legal consequences if he chooses to kill Brad. A possible explanation is that the Origami Killer is held legally responsible for Brad's murder because Ethan was acting under duress when it occurred.
* Once Ethan is given the choice to shoot or spare Brad, the scene will loop indefinitely until the player makes a decision. Something similar happens in "The Old Warehouse" if Ethan goes to the warehouse alone.
* The photo Ethan takes of Brad's body if he shoots him can be viewed in the game files.https://youtu.be/MEMExH50-kc?t=106
