Kate will eventually come around and fight off her suicidal thoughts upon recognising Max as a true friend, should the player continue to comfort her and tell her to be strong. She can then be seen in a hospital room during the end cutscene, surrounded by 'Get Well' balloons and looks happier than she has throughout the entire game thus far.]]
