Suicide Baby/Transcript

This is the transcript of "Suicide Baby," the seventeenth chapter of Heavy Rain.
==Transcript==
(The chapter opens with Scott driving up to a house. He parks his car beside it and gets out to see if anyone is home. The player can view his thoughts here.)
(If Scott chooses "Bowles":)
Scott: Susan Bowles, the mother of the Origami Killer's latest victim. Maybe she knows something about the circumstances surrounding her son's death...
(If Scott chooses "Asthma":)
Scott: Ah! Asthma-free for the moment and loving it! Good ol' inhaler in my pocket just in case.
(Scott can ring the doorbell, look in the window, or knock on the door.)
(If Scott looks in the window, he notices a baby crying. A new thought appears.)
(If Scott chooses "Baby":)
Scott: Baby's screaming and no answers. Don't like the look of this...
(If Scott tries to enter the house, he discovers the door is locked. A new thought appears.)
(If Scott chooses "Back Door?":)
Scott: I should have a look around. There should be another way to get in.
(Scott can enter through the kitchen door on the other side of the house. He notices a letter on the floor.)
(The player can view Scott's thoughts here.)
(If Scott chooses "Letter":)
Scott: A letter on the floor. Maybe I should have a look.
(If Scott chooses "Alone":)
Scott: Doesn't seem to be anyone.
(If Scott chooses "Feeling":)
Scott: I dunno why, but I got a bad feeling about this.
(If Scott chooses "Hypothesis":)
Scott: Jeez. Parents today, going out and leaving a poor little kid like that.
(Scott is given two options: "Mrs. Bowles?" and "Call.")
(If Scott chooses "Call":)
Scott: Anybody home?
(If Scott chooses "Mrs. Bowles?":)
Scott: Mrs. Bowles?
(If Scott interacts with Emily:)
Scott: Hello, little cutie! You looking for your mama?
(If Scott looks at the letter:)
Scott: Oh, Jesus... wait a minute.
(The player can view Scott's thoughts here.)
(If Scott chooses "Worried":)
Scott: This letter... holy fuck! I hope she... I hope she hasn't...
(If Scott chooses "Baby":)
Scott: Hang on baby, first I've gotta find momma...
(If Scott chooses "Quick!":)
Scott: Come on, I have to search the house! Maybe it's not too late...
(When Scott tries to enter Susan's bathroom, he finds that the door is locked.)
Scott: Mrs. Bowles? Mrs. Bowles, are you there?
(After forcing the door open, Scott finds Susan in the bathtub, having slit one of her wrists.)
Scott: Oh, shit... Mrs. Bowles! Mrs. Bowles, can you hear me? Wake up! Wake up!...
(Scott lifts Susan out of the bathtub.)
Scott: There you go...
(Scott carries Susan into the bedroom. The player can view his thoughts here.)
(If Scott chooses "Susan":)
Scott: She's lost a lot of blood. Lucky I happened to be on the scene...
(If Scott chooses "Plan":)
Scott: I'll get her onto the bed, then I'll call for help.
(Scott lays Susan onto the bed.)
Scott: I'm gonna call an ambulance.
Susan: No, I don't want to go to the hospital, please...
Scott: Okay. You got something 'round here I can dress this wound with?
Susan: Yeah... I think so.
Scott: Okay. Don't move, I'll be right back.
(The player can view Scott's thoughts here.)
(If Scott chooses "Bandages":)
Scott: Need some bandages and disinfectant. Gotta be here somewhere.
(If Scott chooses "Where?":)
Scott: She should have some bandages in the bathroom.
(If Scott chooses "Quick!":)
Scott: Quick, she's losing blood! I gotta hurry...
(Scott can wash his hands in the bathroom and get the needed supplies from the cabinet.)
(If Scott opens the cabinet, he quickly grabs what he needs out of it.)
Scott: Let's see. I need this, and this, and this.
(Scott returns to Susan's bedside and begins to treat her wound. He has two dialogue options.)
(If Scott chooses "Stay":)
Scott: Stay with me, Susan. Susan, do you hear me? Susan, stay with me. Can you hear me? Stay with me. Okay, come on...
(If Scott chooses "All Right...":)
Scott: I'm here for you, Susan. You'll be alright... I'll take care of you.
(After Scott finishes bandaging Susan's wrist:)
Scott: There, I've done what I can. That should stop the bleeding. Luckily the wounds aren't too deep. Hey... how are you feeling? Are you okay?
Susan: My baby... my baby needs me.
Scott: Right. You stay there, I'll take care of the baby. Okay?
Susan: Do you know what to do? With a baby, I mean.
Scott: I'm a private eye. There's nothing I can't do.
Susan: Her name is Emily.
Scott: Gotcha.
(The player can view Scott's thoughts here.)
(If Scott chooses "Emily":)
Scott: Mommy will live for now. Let's see how junior's doing.
(If Scott chooses "Thoughts":)
Scott: I was a private eye when I walked in here and now I'm a babysitter. Go figure.
(Once Scott has washed his hands, he can interact with Emily again.)
Scott: Hi there, Emily. So what seems to be the problem, huh? Oh! Going by the smell, I got a pretty good idea.
(Scott picks Emily up and carries her to the changing table. Emily smiles and giggles once she's set down.)
Scott: Okay, how do you do this again?
(Once Scott has successfully changed Emily's diaper, he picks her up again.)
Scott: There you go, fresh new baby! That should feel better. Right, Emily?
(Scott sets Emily down, but she starts crying again.)
Scott: Hey, what's the matter? I thought we solved the problem.
(The player can view Scott's thoughts here.)
(If Scott chooses "Help":)
Scott: Why is she crying? I'll ask Susan, she'll know what to do.
(If Scott chooses "Ill?":)
Scott: Doesn't look ill.
(If Scott chooses "Hungry":)
Scott: Maybe she's hungry?
(If Scott chooses "Intuition":)
Scott: Of course. Now I know why you're crying, my little peachie-poo. Mother Shelby to the rescue.
(If Scott asks Susan for help:)
Scott: Susan, I changed her diaper but she's still crying.
Susan: She's hungry. There's a bottle in the kitchen.
Scott: Gotcha.
(A new thought appears.)
(If Scott chooses "Baby's Bottle":)
Scott: The baby's bottle... Susan said it was in the kitchen.
(If Scott looks at the baby bottle in the kitchen:)
Scott: I guess I better warm this thing up.
(Once the bottle is warmed up, Scott can give it to Emily.)
Scott: Aw, Emily, are you hungry? Hmm? You hold on, I'll just tilt this bottle a little bit so you don't choke, okay?
(When Emily is done with her bottle, Scott pats her back until she burps.)
Scott: Good job, Emily. You're feeling good now, right? Now I'm gonna rock you very gently so you can have a nice little snooze, okay? All right.
(If Scott puts Emily to sleep too quickly, she cries until he rocks her gently again.)
Scott: Awwww... sorry kid, you're not done rocking, right?
(Once Emily is asleep, Scott lays her back down. A new thought appears.)
(If Scott chooses "Emily":)
Scott: Right, that's about the limit of my maternal powers. Poor kid. Life ain't gonna be easy for her.
(When Scott returns to the bedroom, Susan sits up.)
Susan: Thanks for looking after my baby. I didn't want to leave her, I just couldn't cope anymore. Just not having Jeremy around... He was such a good boy. Can't understand why anyone would want to hurt him.
Scott: Do you take care of this baby on your own? Doesn't Jeremy's father live with you anymore?
Susan: He disappeared, the day after Jeremy. I don't know what happened to him. Maybe... maybe he couldn't take it. Ever since I've had to look after Emily all on my own and... I couldn't do it anymore.
Scott: I understand. Did your husband say anything before he disappeared? Did he leave a note or something?
Susan: No. He left the house without a word and... there was just the cellphone.
Scott: A cellphone?
Susan: Yeah, I found a cellphone in his dresser. I'm sure it wasn't his, I'd never seen it before. I tried to turn it on, but it didn't work.
Scott: Do you still have it?
Susan: Yeah, it's in a drawer in the living room. You can have it if you'd like, I'm sure it's of more use to you than to me.
Scott: Do you have any family or anybody to help you?
Susan: Yeah, my mother. I didn't want to ask her for anything - we don't really get along - but I guess I'm out of options.
Scott: Well, look after yourself, and Emily.
Susan: I will. I promise.
(The player can view Scott's thoughts here.)
(If Scott chooses "Telephone":)
Scott: "In a drawer in the living room." That's what Susan said.
(In the living room, Scott can optionally interact with Emily again.)
Scott: Good luck, Emily. You take good care of your momma.
(Scott takes the cellphone out of the drawer next to Emily. He tries to turn it on, but gets nothing. After taking the phone, he returns to his car and drives away, ending the chapter.)
