Wes: Hey, Danny. Got a second to talk?
Danny: Sure thing!
Wes: Now that we’ve got this new rebel hangout, we’ll be adding a few students that may be a little... edgier than you’re used to. For example... I just got word that a girl named ‘Koh’ is about to join the school. Word on the street is that she’s already been kicked out of Hearst High, Twin Branches, AND Athena Academy!
Danny: That’s actually pretty impressive.
Wes: That’s one work for it. All I’m trying to say is, watch out for her. She’s trouble. And you know that means something coming from me.
In the distance, you see a car pull up. An unfamiliar girl gets out and starts walking toward your admissions office.
Wes: Like I said... be careful.
Danny: Look Wes, maybe I’m naive... But this school has always been a place that accepts ALL students, regardless of their pasts. I’m sure there were a few people that had their reservations when YOU joined the school.
Wes: I know... and maybe they were right to. You’ve got a big heart, Danny. Maybe too big. Just don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Requirements
A group of your friends sits near one of the school’s fountains and whispers in hushed voices.
Payton: ...I heard Koh burned down a fireworks stand, just to see what kind of explosion it would make!
Mia: I heard she got kicked out of Athena Academy for dying her hair... and then shaved her head in protest!
Nishan: I heard she picked a fight with the Hearst High lacrosse team... and won!
Autumn: Could all of that really be true?
Danny: Guys... I know there are a ton of rumors about Koh... but I’m sure at least half of them are made up!
Payton: Which means the other half are probably true!
Autumn: Now wait just a second... we can’t just sit around gossiping about some girl we’ve never even met! Remember how this school welcomed US when we first got here? If anything, we need to go welcome Koh to the school!
Danny: Great idea! We’ll round up a couple of our most enthusiastic fellow students and give Koh the welcome she deserves!
Requirements
Danny: Okay, everyone! Ready to welcome Koh to the school?
Maddie: Does a Republican like the color red?
Brandon: Let’s welcome this new student like she’s the visiting president of a major U.S. trading partner!
Autumn: I like this enthusiasm!
The four of you walk over to the Rebel Hangout, where you spot Koh chatting with Wes.
Koh: ...
Maddie: Whoa! She’s scarier than a late-breaking election night scandal!
Autumn: Just relax, everyone... I’m sure she’s a total sweetheart!
Time - 2 hours
Autumn: Hello there! You must be Koh!
Koh: Stalk much?
Autumn: No... I mean... I was just...
Maddie: We’re here to welcome you to the greatest school in the world!
Brandon: Are you ready for the time of your life? I’m trying to make that our school slogan!
Koh: I’d tell you my slogan, but it would probably get me expelled, and it’s only my first day here.
Maddie: Uh... I think we’d better go... lobby our congressman.
Brandon: Bye for now!
The two student govs speedwalk into the distance.
Koh turns her attention to you.
Koh: You must be Danny, right? I’ve heard about you. Did you organize this little welcoming committee?
Danny: I’m driving this welcome wagon.
Koh: Thought so. I’ve heard your story. You’re everybody’s friend or something?
Danny: I do my best.
Koh: Sounds like you spread yourself pretty thin. If you’re friends with EVERYONE... are you really friends with ANYONE?
Danny: You seem to know a lot about me for someone I just met.
Koh: At least you’re not a COMPLETE pushover.
Koh turns to Wes and smiles.
Koh: Looks like coming here wasn’t a total loss.
Wes: I told you there are good people here.
Koh: Oh, I’m sorry. Is that what you were saying? I was too busy staring at your lips to pay attention.
Autumn: That’s a rude thing to say!
Koh: What’s the matter, Twilight Sparkle? Don’t want me flirting with your secret crush?
Autumn: He’s not my secret... I mean...
Koh: Forget this scene. Danny, Wes, want to get out of here and grab a slice of pizza?
Autumn: But lunch is almost over!
Koh: So we’ll miss the next class! What’s the matter? Haven’t you ever skipped out before?
Autumn: I’m not blowing off my classes just to impress someone like you! Goodbye!
Autumn turns and leaves.
Koh: What about you two?
Wes: I’m in.
Danny: Should we really be doing this?
Koh: No one’s twisting your arm. If you don’t want to come, fine.
Wes turns to you and whispers.
Wes: I know you don’t like skipping class... but this might be your best shot to learn more about Koh. Let’s do this.
Danny: Fine... I guess I’ll come too.
Requirements
A few minutes later, you, Koh, and Wes head into the pizza place.
Koh: Perfect. No one here.
Danny: Yeah... since everyone else is in class.
Koh: Is Danny always like this, Wes?
Wes: Danny only breaks the rules when it’s necessary. Not just on a whim. I’m the same way.
Koh: Well, in that case, thanks for gracing me with your presence. Let’s go grab some food so you can get back to your precious school.
Time - 4 hours
Before you eat, Wes pulls you aside.
Wes: Let’s see if we can figure out if some of the rumors about Koh are true...
Danny: Like that one about her setting fire to the fireworks stand?
Wes: Exactly. Follow my lead.
You, Wes, and Koh find a table together and sit down to eat your pizza slices.
Wes: Careful... don’t burn the roof of your mouth. Of course, you know all about burning stuff, don’t you, Koh?
Koh: Heh. I’ve burned a microwave dinner or two in my time.
Wes: I actually meant something a little more... explosive.
Koh: Are you here to eat pizza or ask me a bunch of annoying questions?
Wes: Pizza. I’m here for the pizza.
Danny: I did have one other question though... Could you pass the crushed red pepper?
Koh: Nice. I’m a big fan of spicy things myself.
You spend the next hour eating and making small talk.
Koh: ...and that’s why you always get piercings from a professional.
Danny: That was... quite a story.
Koh: Okay. I’m heading over to visit a couple of friends over at the army surplus store. See you later.
Koh takes off.
Danny: It’s nice that we’re getting to be better friends with her.
Wes: Yeah... but we still don’t know if the rumors about her are true.
Back at school, Autumn rushes up to you!
Autumn: Are you guys okay? Koh didn’t make you commit any crimes or anything, did she?
Wes: If eating bad pizza is a crime, we’re guilty. Otherwise, I think we’re fine.
Autumn: I just feel like she’s a bad influence... like she might even be dangerous!
Danny: I don’t think Koh is THAT bad!
Autumn: But how can you know for sure? How would you feel if she ended up hurting someone at our school?
Danny: I’d feel terrible... but what exactly are you proposing?
Autumn: We need to find out more about this girl... and I know just the place to find some info! Let’s go ask a few questions at one of her old schools: Twin Branches! What do you say? Want to pay our friends there a visit and find out more about Koh?
Requirements
You and Autumn arrive at Twin Branches.
Autumn: I’ll go ask around and see if anyone knows where Owen and Kimi are! They should be able to tell us all about Koh... and it’ll be nice to catch up with them!
Autumn goes to talk to a few students, then runs back to you.
Autumn: It sounds like they’re in detention!
Danny: I guess we’ll have to talk to them after they get out!
Time - 6 hours
A while later, Kimi and Owen head out of the school.
Kimi: Danny! Autumn! It’s so good to see you!
Danny: Sorry to hear that you guys are in detention...
Kimi: Yeah... I had this little incident with a fashion show gone wrong... and then there was the parade float disaster...
Owen: It’s been kind of a rough year.
Kimi: But anyway... what brings you here?
Danny: We actually wanted to ask a few questions about a new student at our school... a girl named Koh.
Owen: That girl is trouble. Let’s just say she and I didn’t get along too well... She got kicked out of here for slashing a jeep’s tires over in the school parking lot!
Kimi: I don’t know... I think she was just misunderstood.
Owen: Tell that to the jeep!
Kimi: You know, no one ever PROVED she did that! People just assumed.
Owen: All I know is, she went to talk to the principal about it... and then got expelled on the spot!
Kimi: I’m just saying... I think she’s got a good heart. She’s just a little... reckless.
Danny: Huh... thanks for the info, you guys...
Kimi: Sure thing! It’s good to see you! Come back any time!
Later, back at your school...
Autumn: I don’t know what to do... I feel like we just keep hearing more rumors... But we don’t have any facts!
Danny: Maybe it’s time to just talk to Koh directly. No more dancing around the issue, trying to be subtle about it.
Autumn: Good call, Danny! It’s time to just ask Koh about these rumors point-blank!
Requirements
You and Autumn find Koh spray-painting her shoes black on the roof of the rebel hangout.
Danny: Hi, Koh... Autumn has something she wants to ask.
Autumn: Should you really be up here? I don’t see a guardrail.
Koh: What do you want?
Autumn: There’s something I wanted to ask you...
Koh shoots Autumn a sly smile.
Koh: Go ahead, Sunshine. Ask away.
Time - 8 hours
Koh: So what’s this big question you’re just DYING to ask?
Autumn: The things is... there are all of these rumors about you. Like how you... beat up the lacrosse team at Hearst High. Is that true?
Koh: Funny. I heard a rumor that you only shower once a week. Care to confirm or deny?
Danny: Easy, Koh!
Autumn: You don’t have to be so mean about this!
Koh: Oh, I’m sorry. I thought I was just asking a straightforward question. And as long as I’m at it, here’s another one... Do you ever wonder why you’re still single? I mean... what is it about your personality that makes you so undateable?
Danny: Watch it, Koh! That’s crossing the line!
Koh: I’m just making a point. Don’t come over here asking question, if you’re not ready to answer some yourself! Now get out of here... and stay out of my business.
You and Autumn walk away.
The next day...
Wes: There you are, Danny! You should come take a look at this... someone just vandalized a bunch of lockers!
Danny: Oh no! We’ve got to get to the bottom of this! I know a couple of people who should be able to investigate...
Requirements
You, Wes, Kimia, and Zayn arrive at the ruined lockers. Autumn stands next to them, crying.
Autumn: Someone broke into my locker! Part of it’s bent in, and a bunch of my stuff is missing!
Autumn’s locker door is a gnarl of twisted metal!
Wes: Hey... come here.
Wes pulls Autumn in for a hug.
Wes: Whoever did this is going to pay.
Danny: I’m sorry, Autumn...
Kimia: Yeah, we’ll find out who did this!
Zayn: But first, we need more facts. Fan out and start asking questions!
Time - 10 hours
Kimia and Zayn start asking questions and cataloging information. As they do, more and more students gather around the lockers.
Kimia: Let’s see... which students’ lockers were damaged?
Zayn: Autumn’s... Sakura’s... and Koh’s!
Danny: Interesting... so Koh’s locker was damaged too. This investigation could be a tough one.
Kimia: It’s time to throw some SCIENCE at this case! We’re going to need fingerprints...
Zayn: DNA analysis...
Kimia: ...and multiple interrogations!
Danny: I’m not sure we have the funds for any of those things..
Kimia: In that case, we’ll do our best to investigate...
Zayn: ...but we can’t make any promises.
Autumn pulls you aside.
Danny: What’s up, Autumn?
Autumn: Well, I think Koh might be behind the vandalism.
Danny: You think so? But her locker was damaged too!
Autumn: It might be a smokescreen to cover up what she’s done.
Danny: Well, don’t jump to any conclusions yet. I’ll talk to her.
You walk up to Koh, who slams her locker angrily.
Danny: Do you have any idea who might’ve done this?
Koh: Typical. Something bad goes down, and you think it has something to do with me?
Danny: I didn’t say...
Koh: Just forget it. I’m out of here.
You find Wes, running his fingers over the bent metal of Autumn’s locker.
Danny: We really need to figure out what’s going on here. I’m not sure if Koh is the culprits behind all this, but it does seem like she knows more than she’s letting on.
Wes: Seems like a good time to offer up my services...
Danny: You know who it is?
Wes: No, but I’ve got a good nose for this stuff. Do you think it’s Koh?
Danny: I’m not sure if it’s her... but I wouldn’t rule her out as a suspect.
Wes: Well, if she really is behind the vandalism and theft, she’s going to be doing something with the stuff that she stole. We need to follow her.
Danny: We have to find her first. She certainly didn’t tell us where she was going when she left.
Wes: Not to worry. I know someone who’ll lead us straight to her.
Requirements
Matt leads you and Wes a ways off of school ground, towards a sketchier part of the neighborhood.
Danny: Where are you taking us?
Matt: An abandoned lot.
Danny: Oh. Good. Why?
Matt: Koh sometimes comes down here to, uh, liven the place up a little.
Danny: ...meaning?
Matt: People leave their junk there. You can smash up anything you want. It’s a fun way to blow off some steam.
Just then, you see Koh swing a baseball bat at an old TV, shattering its screen!
Koh: ...
Koh drops the bat, picks up her backpack, and starts walking into the distance.
Danny: Quick! After her!
Time - 15 hours
You, Wes, and Matt start running to catch up with Koh. As you get closer, Wes holds up a hand.
Wes: Hold up, guys. We don’t want her to spot us. Let’s follow from a couple hundred feet back.
Under Wes’s direction, you keep a healthy distance between you and Koh. Koh idly makes her way down the street and around the corner...
Wes: Come on, pick up the pace! We don’t want her out of our sight for too long!
You round the corner... but Koh is nowhere to be seen!
Danny: What? Where’d she go?
Matt: I don’t see her. She must have spotted us.
Wes: Heh, well done. It’s been a while since someone’s given me the slip. Touche.
You spend half an hour looking around for Koh to no avail...
Danny: So now what?
Wes: We’ll figure out what she’s up to later. For now, let’s get back to the car.
You walk back to Wes’s car... and find it completely trahsed!
Wes: ...
The windows and headlights are smashed out, and the car is covered with dents from a baseball bat!
Danny: What happened? Who did this?
Wes: I’ll give you three guesses, and two of them don’t count.
Danny: It’s Koh, isn’t it?
Wes: Yeah, she knew we were following her. That must’ve set her off.
Matt: She must have doubled back and trashed the car!
Wes: What she did... it crossed the line. You don’t mess with MY vehicle and get away with it! It’s time for me and Koh to have a little ‘chat’!
Requirements
At school the next day... You and Wes find Koh.
Wes: We need to talk.
Koh: About what? Your serious lack of personal boundaries? What’s a girl got to do in this town to walk without being stalked?
Wes: You destroyed my car. Don’t deny it.
Koh: I didn’t touch your car!
Wes: Oh, you’re good, Koh. The way you can just look me in the eye and lie to me... it’s pretty impressive.
Koh: Who says I’m lying?
Danny: Actually... I think Koh is innocent!
Koh: You... do?
Danny: I do. Honestly, I don’t think you would have had time to circle back and destroy Wes’s car while we were following you.
Wes: I guess that’s a good point.
Koh: For once, I’m speechless... it’s not too often that someone actually takes my side. And you’re right... I didn’t do it. Someone’s after me... first they trashed my locker... Then they must have trashed your car because they saw me riding in it when we went out for pizza!
Danny: Okay, I believe you. But if you didn’t do it, then who did?
Koh: I have a guess...
Time - 17 hours
Koh: There was this guy at my old school...
Danny: Which one?
Koh: Uh, Hearst? Yeah, I think Hearst. I knocked him into a trashcan in front of his pals when he was mouthing off at me. He definitely has it in for me.
Wes: You’re sure that’s the one who trashed my car and our lockers?
Koh: Well, now that you mention it... I DID accidentally light this one girl’s chemistry textbook on fire... And this other guy at Twin Branches who I pushed into a swimming pool when he looked at me funny.
Wes: What you’re saying is... you don’t know because you’ve made enemies at every school you’ve ever been to?
Koh: What can I say? I’m not a people person.
Danny: Okay, so we’ve got a few suspects. I say it’s time we knocked some names off this list.
Koh: I’d rather knock some heads together.
Danny: Here’s the plan, Koh. We’re going to get to the bottom of this. We’re going to ‘tour’ all your old schools... and figure out who wants to do this to you!
Which of Koh’s enemies is responsible for the vandalism at your school? Keep playing future quests to find out!
- Have 1 Rebel Hangout
Wes: Hey, Danny. Got a second to talk?
Danny: Sure thing!
Wes: Now that we’ve got this new rebel hangout, we’ll be adding a few students that may be a little... edgier than you’re used to. For example... I just got word that a girl named ‘Koh’ is about to join the school. Word on the street is that she’s already been kicked out of Hearst High, Twin Branches, AND Athena Academy!

Danny: Well, don’t jump to any conclusions yet. I’ll talk to her.
You walk up to Koh, who slams her locker angrily.
Danny: Do you have any idea who might’ve done this?
Koh: Typical. Something bad goes down, and you think it has something to do with me?
Danny: I didn’t say...
Koh: Just forget it. I’m out of here.
You find Wes, running his fingers over the bent metal of Autumn’s locker.
Danny: We really need to figure out what’s going on here. I’m not sure if Koh is the culprits behind all this, but it does seem like she knows more than she’s letting on.
Wes: Seems like a good time to offer up my services...
Danny: You know who it is?
Wes: No, but I’ve got a good nose for this stuff. Do you think it’s Koh?
Danny: I’m not sure if it’s her... but I wouldn’t rule her out as a suspect.
Wes: Well, if she really is behind the vandalism and theft, she’s going to be doing something with the stuff that she stole. We need to follow her.
Danny: We have to find her first. She certainly didn’t tell us where she was going when she left.
Wes: Not to worry. I know someone who’ll lead us straight to her.
Requirements
- Wes
- A Rebel Except Koh (Matt)
Matt leads you and Wes a ways off of school ground, towards a sketchier part of the neighborhood.
Danny: Where are you taking us?
Matt: An abandoned lot.
Danny: Oh. Good. Why?
Matt: Koh sometimes comes down here to, uh, liven the place up a little.
Danny: ...meaning?
Matt: People leave their junk there. You can smash up anything you want. It’s a fun way to blow off some steam.
Just then, you see Koh swing a baseball bat at an old TV, shattering its screen!
Koh: ...
Koh drops the bat, picks up her backpack, and starts walking into the distance.
Danny: Quick! After her!
Time - 15 hours
You, Wes, and Matt start running to catch up with Koh. As you get closer, Wes holds up a hand.
Wes: Hold up, guys. We don’t want her to spot us. Let’s follow from a couple hundred feet back.
Under Wes’s direction, you keep a healthy distance between you and Koh. Koh idly makes her way down the street and around the corner...
Wes: Come on, pick up the pace! We don’t want her out of our sight for too long!
You round the corner... but Koh is nowhere to be seen!
Danny: What? Where’d she go?
Matt: I don’t see her. She must have spotted us.
Wes: Heh, well done. It’s been a while since someone’s given me the slip. Touche.
You spend half an hour looking around for Koh to no avail...
Danny: So now what?
Wes: We’ll figure out what she’s up to later. For now, let’s get back to the car.
You walk back to Wes’s car... and find it completely trahsed!
Wes: ...
The windows and headlights are smashed out, and the car is covered with dents from a baseball bat!
Danny: What happened? Who did this?
Wes: I’ll give you three guesses, and two of them don’t count.
Danny: It’s Koh, isn’t it?
Wes: Yeah, she knew we were following her. That must’ve set her off.
Matt: She must have doubled back and trashed the car!
Wes: What she did... it crossed the line. You don’t mess with MY vehicle and get away with it! It’s time for me and Koh to have a little ‘chat’!
Requirements
- Wes
- Koh
At school the next day... You and Wes find Koh.
Wes: We need to talk.
Koh: About what? Your serious lack of personal boundaries? What’s a girl got to do in this town to walk without being stalked?
Wes: You destroyed my car. Don’t deny it.
Koh: I didn’t touch your car!
Wes: Oh, you’re good, Koh. The way you can just look me in the eye and lie to me... it’s pretty impressive.
Koh: Who says I’m lying?
Danny: Actually... I think Koh is innocent!
Koh: You... do?
Danny: I do. Honestly, I don’t think you would have had time to circle back and destroy Wes’s car while we were following you.
Wes: I guess that’s a good point.
Koh: For once, I’m speechless... it’s not too often that someone actually takes my side. And you’re right... I didn’t do it. Someone’s after me... first they trashed my locker... Then they must have trashed your car because they saw me riding in it when we went out for pizza!
Danny: Okay, I believe you. But if you didn’t do it, then who did?
Koh: I have a guess...
Time - 17 hours
Koh: There was this guy at my old school...
Danny: Which one?
Koh: Uh, Hearst? Yeah, I think Hearst. I knocked him into a trashcan in front of his pals when he was mouthing off at me. He definitely has it in for me.
Wes: You’re sure that’s the one who trashed my car and our lockers?
Koh: Well, now that you mention it... I DID accidentally light this one girl’s chemistry textbook on fire... And this other guy at Twin Branches who I pushed into a swimming pool when he looked at me funny.
Wes: What you’re saying is... you don’t know because you’ve made enemies at every school you’ve ever been to?
Koh: What can I say? I’m not a people person.
Danny: Okay, so we’ve got a few suspects. I say it’s time we knocked some names off this list.
Koh: I’d rather knock some heads together.
Danny: Here’s the plan, Koh. We’re going to get to the bottom of this. We’re going to ‘tour’ all your old schools... and figure out who wants to do this to you!
Which of Koh’s enemies is responsible for the vandalism at your school? Keep playing future quests to find out!
