Follow this detailed walkthrough for Hitman: Absolution's Part 96, guiding you through taking down cops in a specific order to acquire the Pitcher Playstyle and complete the challenge.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Start the section by initiating the prisoner beatdown. Sidestep right to the 'Keep Out' sign and take cover. A Cop will leave the scene.
  2. 2
    Wait for the prisoner beating to stop. One Cop leaves the cell, another cleans the sink.
  3. 3
    Cop #1: This Cop is looking at a cell. Throw a Shiv at him.
  4. 4
    After killing Cop #1, wait for the Cop at the sink to finish and return to the prisoner. Sneak to Cop #1's position, grab the Shiv, change into his Disguise, and hide his body in a nearby Closet.
  5. 5
    Switch to your Silenced Silverballer. Aim at the bottom of the cell door near the blood pool and fire one shot to attract Cop #2. Hide in the Closet.
  6. 6
    Cop #2 will investigate the blood pool. Exit the Closet when he reaches it and throw the Shiv at him. Leave the Shiv in Cop #2 to avoid accidentally dropping it later.
  7. 7
    After killing Cop #2, grab the Wrench near the Closet. Crouch over Cop #2 to pick up the Shiv.
  8. 8
    Aim at the chair near the Entry Point and throw the Wrench at it. As the Wrench is in the air, pick up the Shiv.
  9. 9
    Cop #3 is sitting in the cell, and Cop #4 is standing over the dead Prisoner. When the Wrench hits the floor, Cop #3 will investigate. Throw the Shiv at him when he gets near the Wrench. Drag Cop #3's body to where Cop #2 is.
  10. 10
    Grab the Wrench again. Go back to Cop #3's position to pick up the Shiv. Throw the Wrench at the chair again and pick up the Shiv from the dead Cop.
  11. 11
    This time, Cop #4 will see the blood pool and investigate. Throw the Shiv at him when he gets close to it.
  12. 12
    If done correctly, blood pools will be by the Entry Point, not on the stairs.
  13. 13
    Drag Cop #3 halfway up the stairs and drop him. Do the same for Cop #4 after retrieving the Shiv from him. Drag Cop #2 and the Prisoner up the stairs as well.
  14. 14
    Go to the Closet and drop the Shiv in front of it. Grab the Wrench and switch to your Silenced Silverballer.
  15. 15
    Peek around the corner to see the Control Room. Fire one round at the base of the wall to attract Cop #5. Stand by the Closet and ready the Wrench.
  16. 16
    When Cop #5 nears where you fired, throw the Wrench at the abutment to the right of the cell door. Quickly grab the Shiv and hide in the Closet.
  17. 17
    Cop #5 will investigate the blood pool by the cell door, then run to the bodies. Exit the Closet when he runs past and Throw Kill him by the bodies.
  18. 18
    If successful, you should now have the [Pitcher] Playstyle. You may also acquire the [Brutus] Playstyle if you haven't already.
  19. 19
    Grab the Shiv and drag Cop #5's body with the others. Repeat the luring and killing technique for Cops #6 and #7.
  20. 20
    Head to the Control Room area. Cop #8 is inside, and Cop #9 is by the Gate. Hide in the nook between the wooden Container and the abutment.
  21. 21
    Wait for the conversation between Cop #8 and Skurky to end. Cop #8 will start his patrol.
  22. 22
    Wait for Cop #8 to stand by the button and Cop #9 to be at the corner. Go to the doorway and Throw Kill Cop #8. His body should fall where Cop #9 cannot see it.
  23. 23
    Quickly retrieve the Shiv and return behind the boxes.
  24. 24
    Wait for Cop #9 to stand by the gate. As he moves to the corner, get behind him and Throw Kill him with the Shiv just as he stops.
  25. 25
    Get the Shiv, open the Gate, and proceed.
  26. 26
    NOTE: If Cop #9 hears you killing Cop #8, go around to the other side. After finding the body, he will stand outside. Shoot the wall corner near the Container to lure him away. Loop around to re-enter the room and retrieve the Shiv. Wait for him to return to his standing position, then sneak up and Throw Kill him.
  27. 27
    The last Cop, Cop #10, is in the small room with the Evidence. Sneak up and attack him to complete the Challenge.
Tips
  • Leaving the Shiv in Cop #2 prevents you from accidentally dropping it when swapping for the Wrench, which can alert other Cops.
  • The randomness of the level can cause Cops to investigate dropped items. Leaving the Shiv in a target mitigates this.
  • Ensure bodies are hidden to avoid detection.
  • The blood pools' location is crucial for later steps.
  • [Pitcher] Playstyle
  • Completion of Part 96 Challenge
