The chapter opens with a brief cutscene showing Grace picking up Emily and running. Once you regain control of Grace, you’ll be prompted to get to the surface.
Getting to the Surface
The path forward is largely linear, so keep moving along the main route. You’ll soon come across a staircase, head up, and you’ll reach a panel with green lights. With Emily in your arms, you won’t be able to interact with it, so keep going. Head through the large door in this area, and a cutscene will trigger. Grace spots the Girl lurking nearby and makes up her mind that she has to deal with the Girl herself if she wants to protect Emily. She sets Emily down on a metallic platform, and the cutscene ends.
Preparing for the Girl
Once you’re back in control, check the area around you before heading out. On the table directly in front of you, there’s a Roof Hatch Manual file. On a nearby barrel, you’ll find a Transfusion Bag and a Med Injector, along with a full set of 5x 12.7x55mm Ammo for the Requiem Revolver. There’s also a typewriter here where you can save your progress before continuing.
Head outside into the main area. You won’t be prompted to open the hatch just yet. Interact with the roof controls first, but the hatch will only open partway. You’ll then be prompted to restart three power distributions on the lower floor.
The Three Generators
Take a right from the roof controls and follow the red lighting until you spot a staircase beside the railing. Drop down. As soon as you land, you’ll find more Requiem Ammo nearby. Take a right and prepare to navigate the lower floor carefully — the Girl is down here, so stay crouched as much as possible to avoid drawing her attention.
Generator One: Keep moving forward from the ammo and take a right when you see red lighting and barrels ahead. From there, take another right and then a left to find the first generator room. Turn on the first power distribution and head back out.
Generator Two: Trace back to the barrels, then move straight ahead and follow the right railing. Take the first right and you’ll see a room on the left with a red light above it. Head inside. Within this room there’s a storage area. Go inside and collect the Crank Lever. Return to the main room with the red light, and a cutscene will play where the Girl ambushes Grace, grabs her by the head, and throws her out of the room. Run to a safe distance and use any bottles you’re carrying to divert the Girl’s attention away from the door. Once she moves off, head back inside and turn on the second generator.
Generator Three: Exit the room and follow the right path all the way to the end, then take a left. In this area, you’ll spot a floodlight; keep its location in mind, as you’ll need it in a moment. Continue to the right at the far end to find the final generator panel. When you try to activate it, the lever will jam, and the Girl will ambush you again. Break away and run back to the floodlight and switch it on to stun her. With the Girl temporarily blinded, rush back to the panel and turn on the third generator.
Opening the Roof Hatch
With all three generators running, head back up to the roof controls and begin activating the hatch. The Girl will attack you while you’re working — keep holding on and don’t let go. The hatch will swing fully open, and sunlight will flood the area, stunning the Girl and burning her. The moment she’s burning, aim with L2 and fire with R2. Keep shooting until she goes down. Once she’s defeated, you’ll be prompted to return to Emily.
A cutscene plays. Grace rushes back to Emily, but things take a sharp turn for the worse, and Leon steps in to handle the situation. After it’s over, Grace hands the Requiem Revolver to Leon and walks away alone, only to come face to face with a familiar figure who promises to show Grace her true destiny in the ruins of Raccoon City, where Leon will soon follow to find her.
