It Gets Worse

It Gets Worse is a story objective in the Prey DLC, Mooncrash. It is only accessible when playing as Vijay Bhatia, and is only unlocked after escaping as him using the Mass Driver.

Objectives

 * Find the Memory Marker.
 * Listen to Director Yu
 * Find Claire Whitten
 * Search the room for clues about Claire's whereabouts
 * Find and use the antidote (7 minutes)
 * Use the remote detonation controls to scuttle Claire's Escape pod (12 minutes)

Walkthrough
The memory marker is found in the Security Barracks, Habitation Modules 17-24 (Crew Annex). After using it, Vijay can be observed waking up with a hangover, having drunken himself asleep out of news of his son's death. The note Death Notice: Samir Bhatia may be found on the desk near the terminal, which cannot be found otherwise.

Riley Yu will call and assign Vijay with tracking down Claire Whitten, who is revealed to be a Kasma spy and has murdered several members of the security team.

Head to MoonWorks, to Claire Whitten's location. It is advised to use the crew tracker on the security terminals. Her tracking bracelet will be found in MoonWorks Maintenance in the Central Mine, surrounded by several dead security officers. Reaching the bracelet will cause two Security Operators will emerge and attack.

After dealing with the Operators, search the room for clues. This can be accomplished by opening the file on Claire's terminal, which will cause Vijay to be doused in neurotoxin. Claire will call, taunt Vijay, and offer him the location of the Poison Antidote.

It may be possible to dodge the poison gas by using the file and immediately retreating. This skips the Poison objective. Otherwise, the poison antidote must be located in order to survive. Possible locations include:
 * Crater, in the south near Ventilation, where each character spawns at the beginning of a run. Note that this has a guaranteed Moon Shark, including a reactivated Typhon Gate. This may require reascending to the top.
 * As an alternative, Medical Operator s can cure it just like any other status effect.

The escape pod detonation controls are in the Control Tower of the Crew Annex. There are no specific enemies found here, aside from those randomly placed by the simulation. Claire will try to convince Vijay not to detonate her pod, claiming that there are other survivors with her, though she is likely bluffing. Unlock the terminal with Vijay's password. There are two options from this point:
 * Activate the remote detonation. The terminal will detect life signs on the pod and ask for further confirmation, allowing one to back out should they choose so. Claire's escape pod will be seen crashing in the distance.


 * Alternatively, Claire can be allowed to escape by disabling remote detonation on the same terminal. Claire will thank Vijay, offering him a position with Kasma should he also escape, and the mission will conclude as normal.
