Talking Brenda down in episode 2

[Mornai]

In episode 2 when Brenda is holding Katjaa at gunpoint, you have to slowly advance while talking to her to calm her down. One thing i noticed is that in some videos I've seen, the dialogue is different toward the end.

In a few videos, Lee starts talking about the farm and how it was their family's pride, and what would Terry(Brenda's husband) think of her now, etc. In most examples, however, Lee just uses a generic 'don't do this, let her go" sort of speech. Does anyone know what the trigger(s) are to change this, if any?

It's not just this moment, either. In episode 3 when talking to Clementine about her parents on the train, some people had the option to say "I think i heard them die" whereas most others had "They're dead, we have to move on."

In episode 4 when talking to her again in Crawford, some had an option that mentioned Katjaa and others did not.

Maybe you have to examine specific items like the St. John family photos or say specific things in conversations.

Just a small thing i noticed and wondered about.

Yeah. If you notice certain ribbons and trophies around the dairy, you will get to change the dialogue with Brenda.

i did not know that pretty cool

The items I believe you need to look at are:
-Danny's high school diploma
-Andy's college diploma
-Danny's baseball trophy
-Ribbons outside of the house
-The picture of Terry and Brenda

And asking Brenda about the house is a maybe.

..Wow, I never noticed that!

Just did this the other night.

I believe you need to ask her about the house, check out the awards on the side of the house, and before you go upstairs, look at the picture of Terry and all the awards on the wall.

I think talking to her about family was more of an understandable way of making Brenda back away than simply telling her don't do this. Maybe she simply didn't have the guts to shoot Lee, and she obviously wanted Kat for the cow, but I still thought Brenda would've shot Lee in fear.

This video is one example...i think you just have to talk to Katjaa about it in episode 1, but out of everyone I've seen so far this guy is the only one who had that option.
