Dispatch Episode 2 Walkthrough: Best Dialogue Choices and Outcome

Episode 2 throws you into the deep end of Robert's new career at SDN, where every conversation and decision shapes your relationships with colleagues and heroes. This pivotal episode introduces key characters like Royd, Invisigal, and Blonde Blazer while testing your management skills through challenging hero dispatch scenarios. Your choices here establish the foundation for future episodes, making this guide essential for optimal outcomes.

What Makes Episode 2 Choices So Important?

Episode 2 fundamentally differs from the introductory first episode by focusing on workplace relationships and professional competence. You'll face five major decision points that significantly impact character relationships, plus numerous smaller choices during hero dispatch missions that affect your performance ratings.

The episode introduces the relationship memory system, where characters explicitly remember your choices and reference them in future interactions. Unlike Episode 1's more forgiving approach, Episode 2 punishes poor decisions with lasting consequences.

Critical Relationship Decisions

The Royd Bathroom Encounter

Your first major choice involves Royd's offered bro fist in the restroom. This seemingly casual moment carries surprising weight:

The conversation continues with Royd discussing his nickname concerns. Choose "No, I'm just kidding" to maintain the positive momentum you've built.

The Invisigal Command Crisis

During the Granny's Donuts incident, you face a complex tactical decision when Invisigal enters a standoff situation. The twist? Invisigal deliberately does the opposite of whatever you command, revealing her rebellious nature.

Your options are:

• Disarm Granny (Invisigal attacks the thief)
• Take Out Thief (Invisigal moves on Granny)

The Snitch Decision

After Invisigal punches Robert (which happens regardless of your previous choices), Blonde Blazer questions your bloody nose. Your response options are:

• "The air is dry"
• "Invisigal punched me"
• "I bumped my head"

Critical Choice Analysis: Choosing "Invisigal punched me" damages your relationship with Blonde Blazer, making her less trusting. The safer options ("The air is dry" or "I bumped my head") maintain professional relationships while avoiding workplace drama.

Hero Dispatch Mission

Episode 2 introduces the core gameplay loop of dispatching heroes to various incidents. Success depends on matching hero abilities to mission requirements:

Special Considerations:

• Vanderstenk Security offers two paths: sending Sonar improves his relationship and grants 200% XP, while sending others gives slight relationship loss with Sonar but XP for all heroes
• Fight at Crypto Night has Prism-exclusive follow-up options
• Blaze in the Burbs works best with Golem (choose "Body" for follow-up)

Hacking Sequence Mastery

Episode 2 introduces multiple hacking mini-games during critical missions. These sequences require specific path-building strategies:

General Hacking Tips:

1. Always complete Build Paths before attempting Key sequences
2. Memorize codes immediately when reaching Key spaces
