Waiting at the Record Store

Walkthrough for Life is Strange: True Colors' "Waiting at the Record Store" chapter. Includes choices, dialogue options, and finding the hold list.

When you step inside the record store, you'll witness a cutscene introducing a familiar character from a previous Life is Strange game. The store also functions as an indie rock radio station. You'll be prompted to choose between two records to play; your selection does not affect the outcome.

Alex then meets Ryan, Gabe's best friend. After choosing your dialogue options, you'll be tasked with finding the store's hold list to help select a present for Gabe.

Minor Decision: Near the entrance, you can find a listening station. This is a "Zen moment," where Alex can sample music and reflect on events. After you're done, press B (Circle).

Trivia: A banner for Firewalk, the band from Life is Strange: Before the Storm, is displayed high on the wall near the back room.

Browse the store and find Valkyrie, an adorable black cat, in the back-right corner. She is lying on the hold list. You can either "Move" her or "scare" her, but neither action retrieves the list. Ryan suggests finding one of her toys to lure her away.

Go to the front desk and help Ryan. You'll have four options: the shelf, the drawer, the metal box, and the cash register. Choosing any of these leads to further dialogue and unlocks a fifth option, the junk box, which contains the toy. After acquiring the toy (a stuffed reindeer-mouse), you can lure Valkyrie away from the list. Taking the list triggers a lengthy cutscene.

Minor Decision: During this cutscene, you can choose to reveal information about Gabe. Your choice does not significantly impact the story.

Following this, more events will unfold, concluding the scene.

PSA: During this scene, you will receive MyBlock posts and text messages. Check them using the "View" button (Xbox) or the touchpad (PlayStation). New messages are indicated by white text in the bottom-right corner of the screen.
