Adam Jones

**Adam Jones**, also known under his alias **Simon Hillary** was the forensics medical examiner of the Police Department who was later revealed to be the real Trapper killer. He was voiced by Gabriel Schwalenstocker, and modelled on Leonardo Patane.

## **Appearance**

Adam has short dark brown hair. He has green eyes and a fair complexion. He has a mole on the right side of his forehead, one closer above his right eye brow and one beneath it.

For the majority of the story Adam wears a grey longsleeved button-down shirt with a black tie and tight black jeans, along with some black shoes.

Later on in Part 3 he can be seen wearing a grey hoodie, some grey sweatpants, and sneakers.

In the Credits he can either wear his longsleeved button-down shirt with a tie, or the grey hoodie.

## **Personality**

As Simon Hillary, Adam was a relative calm person. After the murder on Calvary, he becomes more cautious and nervous. If Becky goes to his house to talk about the recurring motives of the Trapper killings, he acts distracted, nervous and oblivious.

After being identified as the real Trapper, Adam drops his facade and acts like the cold blooded murderer he is. He does not shy away from threatening others with violence and if the player isn't quick enough, he will shoot or use a knife.

Adam is vengeful, even going as far to kill the social worker who didn't help him when he was younger. He also went after Rupert Walsh because he was abusive toward his wife, which must've reminded Adam of his own father.

## **History**

Adam led a life of tragedy. His father abused his mother until she killed him in front of Adam. He was then sent to an orphanage and was abused by Father Rominski and other adults. Vernon LeMay reveals that his brother used to beat Adam but that the boy always had a dead look in his face. Judge Vanstone prevented his mother to see her son, which left Adam with a grudge for said judge.

## **Hidden Agenda**

### Prologue

Adam is not seen or mentioned in the prologue.

### Part 1

He can be seen as Simon Hillary in a meeting about Finn's release. The officers will ask him about the forensics evidence found at the previous Trapper cases. Later, Simon is seen at the aftermath of Calvary's murder, which unbeknownst to the player and characters still, he is responsible for. While he is investigating the crime scene, he sets off the bomb he put in Calvary to give himself an alibi.

### Part 2

Simon is seen in the opening scene after the explosion in the cabin. Another cop asks if him if he's doing okay to which Simon remains relatively quiet. Riggs/Nelson will briefly talk about what happened and if the player chooses to ask if this case is the work of the real Trapper Riggs/Nelson will comment on how he's glad that thanks to Simon's quick thinking, the explosive didn't go off as hard as it could've been to which Simon responds relieved he still has his hands.

While Becky is investigating people/places who were connected to previous Trapper cases, Adam can be seen stalking her in a hoodie with a scarf hiding a part of his face. If the player succeeds with the QTEs they'll have enough time to look at Adam's figure, which can aid later in identifying Adam as the Trapper.

Becky can visit Simon at his house to discuss the connection between the Trapper killings and the targets having a thing for hookers. Adam will act distraught, hiding behind the explosion that happened to him earlier. When he drops his cup and goes to another room to get some cleaning tools, the player can decide to follow him. Becky will sneak after him and see the hoodie he wore to stalk her, lay close to him. If the player had a good look at the stalker, Becky will connect the dots.

### Part 3

Adam is seen at the start of Part 3 disguising himself as a waitress at the bar Becky Marney is at, and depending on the players choices he can drug Becky and kidnap her. When Becky has woken up in the Elliot Hotel along with Judge Vanstone's trapped body, she gets a call from Adam; telling her that she has to shoot Vanstone to survive. Depending on what you do here Becky and Vanstone can either live or die. If Becky survives and escapes out of the hotel she will go to Adam's house if she is certain that he is the Trapper. In the basement Adam is dousing all the evidence in gasoline, but before he can light it on fire Becky walks up behind him with her gun. He will attempt to escape but will be stopped by Tom/Karl if he is alive.

Depending on the player's choices, it's possible for Becky and Felicity to lure Adam into a trap and lead him to an open area where a helicopter will spot him. In this scenario, Becky and Felicity can be killed by Adam if the player makes the wrong choices and fails the QTE's. It's also possible for Adam to surrender to the police or for Adam to get shot by Becky. Another possibility, is for Adam to commit suicide if the player chooses to reveal that Judge Vanstone is alive and fail the QTE to stop Adam from shooting himself.

*TBA*

### Credits

Adam can be seen talking to an interviewer about Becky's escape, arrest, or death, if he's alive. He can also be seen not responding to the interviewer if he has been caught as the Trapper.

If he is not caught as the Trapper, there is the possibility to see a cutscene where he is buying more mouse traps, revealing to the player that he is the Trapper.

## **Relationships**

### Becky Marney

As Simon Hillary, he is cooperative and often answers Detective Marney's questions. However, he often acts oblivious or forgetful. As Adam, he acts malicious and hostile against Marney but if Becky knows about his real identity, he states that he finds it almost tragic that others will not know how good a detective she truly was.

### Jonathan Finn

John and Adam were friends during their time in the Orphanage. Due to their shared trauma, they had grown closer. Due to Adam’s actions, Finn was wrongfully convicted of his crimes and put on death row. Depending on the choices of the player, Finn will tell the player that he regrets having trusted Adam. But if the player makes Finn distrustful towards them, he will side with Adam. However, Adam's personal thoughts on Finn are never revealed. If they team up, they don't speak or interact much.

### William Vanstone

As the man who prevented him from seeing his mother, Adam wanted him dead and tried to kill him.

## **Quotes**

"No, Detective Marney. What we wanted was a future. We never had one, and thanks to you, we never will."

## **Trivia**

* He shares the same character model as:
	+ Abe White, an orderly from *The Inpatient*.
	+ Private Cooper, the sailor in charge of Ourang Medan's radio from *Man of Medan*.
	+ Simon Carver, the reverend from *Little Hope*.
	+ Jeff Whitman, the husband of Marie Whitman from *The Devil in Me*.
* Ironically, his character model is used for a corrupt reverend and an orderly in other Supermassive Games. Both characters entailing a role that Adam despised in Hidden Agenda: father Rominski also being a priest, and the corrupt orderly.
