Part 22

Exit the Police HQ cell, go to the end of the corridor, and go through the door.

Watch the TV, then go through the next door and up the stairs.

Proceed through the corridor and up another set of stairs to trigger a cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically).

Go through the doorway, check the phone-tapping device, and go up the stairs.

At the top, go through the doorway, turn right, and proceed to your desk.

After meeting people, check the writing board and let them shoot you to end the level. This section concludes with a graphic novel.

The timeline is 'Earlier Tonight; Now.' Locations include the Hospital, Mona's Funhouse, and Police HQ (in dream), and The Manor (in real). Characters are Mona Sax, Max Payne, Jim Bravura, and Detective Winterson. No weapons are used, and 0 enemies are killed.

Chapter 1 begins with a graphic novel and a cutscene. The setting is New York City, Earlier Tonight, at the Hospital and Alfred Woden's Manor.

Collect painkillers from the cabinet and go through the door. Keep running and go through the first double-door on the left.

Take the stairs up two floors and go through the double-door. Turn left, then left again, and go forward.

Enter the 'Surgery' double-door. Turn right and go through the next double-door.

Go through the 'Recovery' double-door on the right, then take the only door on the left side of this room.

Hide behind the cubicles at the back of the room. Wait for two thugs to enter.

A guard will enter and be shot by the thugs. Wait for the thugs to approach you, then go around the right side and pick up the guard's weapon.

Kill both thugs using bullet time. Collect their weapons and any painkillers from cubicles and cabinets. Go through the door the guard came from.

Turn right, go forward, and enter the door on the left. Collect weapons and painkillers from panels and head towards the door on the right.

As you approach the door, it will open. Use the right side of the doorway as cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects). Three thugs will approach.

Equip an MP5 and headshot (a shot that lands on the enemy's head, usually an instant kill)-kill them as they get near. Check cabinets beside the door and go through to the next room.

Check the steel cabinets at the far end and go through the other door.

Watch the TV, then head left. Turn left at the end and go forward. The room on the left has nothing.

Go forward and peek into the first room on the right where two black-suits are talking. You can wait for them or attack using bullet time with a Kalashnikov or MP5.

After killing them, collect painkillers from the back of the room and go through the door on the right near the painkillers.

Go to the other door of this room, open it, and use it as cover. Wait for three black-suits who throw grenades. Kill them with a rapid-fire weapon.

Go to the end of the corridor and towards the door at the far end. A black-suit or two may come through.

Enter the room and kill the two black-suits at the back (if they didn't come out). Another black-suit may come through the other door.

Go through the other door into another room. Kill the black-suit here (if he didn't come out), check the closets, and go through the other door.

Watch the TV here. Go through the single door marked 'Exit' on the right and retreat.

Use the left side of the doorway as cover and wait for seven thugs to come through the door one by one. Kill them all using bullet time and MP5.

Go through the door again and to the bottom of the stairs.

Go through the double door marked 'EXIT' and hide (crouch) behind the police car.

Four more black-suits will approach. Enter bullet time when they are near, kill the closest one, and crouch again. Repeat until all four are dead. Prioritize the one on the right, then the left, then the two farthest right.

Go to the other side of the area. Another black-suit will come out from the room near the car at the end. Kill him.

Collect all weapons, and go beyond the last car and room to trigger a cutscene, followed by a graphic novel.
