History Fridge / TheWhiteChamber

* FridgeBrilliance: At several key points, the protagonist will give you hints on certain actions to take. These actions aren't necessary to complete the game, however. The hints in question are: trying to break the glass when the body is trapped in the tube, commenting that perhaps she could warm up the man in the freezer, and thinking about how cold the fully assembled body looks. While from a [[WatsonianVersusDoylist Doylist perspective]] this could be taken as the game's attempt to avert GuideDangIt, from a Watsonian perspective, it's a sign that [[EarnYourHappyEnding Sarah has genuinely earned her chance at redemption]] -- it's possible to earn the Redemption ending if you do all or two of these actions. Also note that she warns you against clipping the wires in the Analyzer, which is the only action in the game that can lower your KarmaMeter.
* FridgeLogic: So Sarah's reward for atoning for her sins is... Spending eternity completely alone on a tiny island in the middle of an eternal ocean? And not even the whole island at that; it's too densely forested to even walk between the trees maybe 25 yards from the coast.

** Besides, [[spoiler: [[SequelHook nothing can destroy the Artefact...]]]]

** Why exactly did [[spoiler: Sarah need to build that body, again?]]

*** [[spoiler: Even ''she'' didn't know why, and chalked it up to the space station doing something to her.]]
*** [[spoiler: So she could decide to place a blanket on him as an act of mercy.]]

** Judging by the ending cheesecake shot, she's doing quite well for herself. Set up a camp, a fishing line, and got that bikini from ''somewhere''.
*** Or alternately, the trees seen when back up in the ship were so dense because the artefact could only project a small portion for our heroine to explore. There's no telling what the real beach at the end was like, though we do see her amongst some flora during the Fanservice credits.
** It's better than the alternative endings....

** Why exactly did [[spoiler:Sarah need to build that body, again?]]
** So she could get trapped in the quarantine room and get the last video disc! Really, it's just another example of the artifact fucking with her head just ForTheEvulz
