Episode[]
Introduction[]
At the Dixmor Hospital for the Criminally Insane, a severe thunderstorm causes the security system at the asylum to momentarily go offline, opening the cell doors throughout the facility, resulting in the populace wandering freely through the corridors. One of the inmates, Daniel Lamb, is disoriented and partly amnesiac, unable to remember how or why he came to Dixmor.
He is guided by another inmate, Leo Kasper, who guides him through the corridors of the asylum. Daniel is instructed to hide in shadows to bypass the three and reach the other corridor, where a hanging body can be found in a cell. Leo will tell Daniel to grab the Syringe lying ahead of him on the ground and use it to kill the nurse at the end of the hallway. Daniel appears to be uncomfortable with killing an innocent, and vomits right after doing so.
A wheelchair will come careening down the upward-slanting corridor as he turns the corner. The patient that was in the wheelchair will twitch and try to grab Daniel, who can simply ignore him and head rightward down the next corridor, where an inmate spots Daniel. The two face off and the fight ends with Daniel beating the inmate to death. After the fight, Leo tells Daniel to find some first aid. He finds some painkillers on the shelf, along with another Syringe.
Daniel heads forwards to the control room at the end of the corridor, where he'll be instructed to hide in the shadows and make some noise to make the guard come out of the control room. With his back turned, Daniel silently executes him. Daniel opens a nearby gate by pressing the switch in the control room and proceeds to find a way out.
He finds an elevator that leads him to another dark corridor, where a deranged patient walks by him. Daniel can hide in the shadows and execute him when his back is turned, or fight him. Eventually, he finds a cell room where a woman over the intercom will say that "the cell doors are open", and the gate adjacent to the cells is closed. Daniel must first shut each door with the corresponding switches, and when all four are shut, the gate will then open.
In the pathway, Daniel must deal with two asylum staff to proceed. After he kills the last enemy in the final room, he jumps out of the window. Leo will tell Daniel that the nearby trash truck is the way out of the asylum. But first, he must kill the two asylum staff and hide them in the nearby shadows before making his escape and ending the episode.

Trivia[]
- After getting on the elevator, a half cut body appears as Leo Kasper. This is a leftover from when Legion members looked like Leo.
- Female inmates were intended to appear in this episode.
- The Fire Axe was cut during the development in this episode.
- Dr. Pickman can be met early during this episode. Instead of taking the elevator after executing the orderly, going left to a gated off hallway will lead and cause Pickman to notice Danny. He will attempt to get an orderly to escort him back to his cell, however the button to open the gate in front of them short-circuits.
