* DownerEnding: Crossed with FridgeLogic: [[spoiler:Faith's best friend has turned against her. Merc, her big-brother figure, is dead. She's almost certainly on the hook for murder, as it would be very, VERY hard to get through all of the game without killing anyone, either explicitly by shooting them right in the god damn face, or implicitly by 'nonlethally' knocking them off a very tall building. She hasn't succeeded in gathering any exculpatory evidence that goes anywhere in terms of proving Kate's innocence for murder in a court of law, but that's pretty irrelevant as law and order seems to flow from the barrels of hired guns in The City, and given that Pirandello-Kreuger were shooting to kill without provocation ''before'' Faith potentially started slaughtering them, they're not going to hesitate to do so afterward. Kate's boss, the actual, ranked Detective, who probably could have helped in that matter (and likely had gathered evidence of his own) is dead as well... And, critically, Faith and Kate are still stuck on the top of a roof of the Shard at the end; a roof-top which contains a very heavily-armed kill squad that was trying to kill them moments earlier. Worse, Kate's handcuffed, and while she is armed, a truncheon isn't going to do much good against a SWAT team, and it's very unlikely that Kate would have the skills and ability to follow Faith on whatever elaborate escape route Faith might manage to take, even if she had her hands free, which she does not; and the pair of keys is likely on the ground somewhere, either where or near Jackknife hit, or somewhere in the flaming debris of the chopper. All that Faith's accomplished, then, the reward for all the suffering and insanity she's gone through, is that she gets to be turned into swiss cheese by bullets whilst hugging her sister, as opposed to not whilst hugging her sister.]]
