Wtf, this is possible? I thought they all died from the poison gas and there was no way to change the outcome
If you force Erik to pay Lucy more money and (IDK if this is a check or not) tell her daughter, "That's what hero's do." she gets excited & wants to join HERO, then she awakens as a super and Leif runs her into the barrier before the gas can finish her off. Everyone else dies, who didn't already leave the city, including Lucy (RIP) (convicts I think survive since they left before the gas started).
If you go the other path with Deryl, you still end up saving the convicts & they help Deryl, & you get to scan Deryl.
