Guide your way through Heavy Rain's 'The Nurse' chapter. Learn how to treat Ethan's burns, administer medicine, and progress the story as Madison.

Alright, we're jumping into Chapter 22, 'The Nurse,' where you'll be playing as Madison. This one's all about taking care of Ethan after he's been through the wringer. There are no Trophies tied to this chapter, so just focus on getting Ethan back on his feet.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You'll start as Madison, noticing Ethan's motel room door is open. Head inside to help him out. To get him onto the bed, you'll need to tap Down on the D-pad, mash the [Triangle] button, and hold down both L1 and R1 along with Up on the D-pad.
  2. 2
    Once he's on the bed, check him over: his forehead, arms, and then his chest. You'll need to remove Ethan's shirt to treat his burns. To do this, hold Up on the D-pad and R1. Quick Note: You'll only have to do this if Ethan actually got zapped by the condensers earlier in the game. If you managed to avoid that or quit before that section, he won't have any burns to worry about.
  3. 3
    After that, head over to the medicine cabinet to grab the supplies.
  4. 4
    Now, you've got a few options for treating Ethan: applying ointment, disinfecting, bandaging, and giving him medicine. I'd suggest starting with the ointment. You'll need to slowly rotate the left analog stick clockwise until the on-screen prompt disappears. Do it one more time to make sure his burns are soothed.
  5. 5
    Next up, disinfectant for his arms. Slowly press Down on the D-pad four times.
  6. 6
    For medicine, you can give him the anti-fever, antibiotic, or painkiller meds – they all work fine. Just steer clear of the sleeping pills, though.
  7. 7
    Finally, it's time to wrap those bandages. Rotate the left analog stick clockwise for a bit to bandage his arm. Then, to bandage his burns specifically, hold L1, mash [Triangle], and rotate the stick clockwise again.
  8. 8
    Once all that's done, you just have to wait for Ethan to recover.
  9. 9
    When Ethan wakes up, you'll have a few conversation choices. Honestly, none of them really change anything significant. Madison will eventually leave, and you'll switch back to controlling Ethan.
  10. 10
    Open up the next origami figure, and Ethan will head off to face whatever the Origami Killer has planned next.
Tips
  • Don't stress too much about the conversation choices after Ethan wakes up; they don't have a major impact on the story.
  • Pay close attention to the analog stick movements for treating Ethan's wounds – precision matters here!
