L.A. Noire Walkthrough – Chapter 4: Vice Desk Cases – 2. The Set-Up

Published on June 17th, 2011

Welcome to the complete L.A Noire walkthrough, where we’ll walk you through every head-scratching mystery, show you where to find all the clues, tell who’s lying and telling the truth and help you solve every grisly murder.

The next batch of cases you need to solve before you move up ranks to the Arson Desk is the Vice Desk Cases. This is the second case: The Set-Up.

Boxing Stadium
Newspaper
On one of the tables in the middle of the dressing room.

Clue- Bookmakers’ odds
Look in Hammond’s locker. You’ll also find a telephone number. Visit a phone to have it traced.

Hotel El Mar
When you arrive at the El Mar, you’ll need to look in the ledger for Hammond. He isn’t using his real name, but he is British, so look for the prominent Brit in the ledger. Doesn’t get more prominent than Winston Churchill, room 207.

Clue- Telegram
Look in the trash can that’s been knocked over, by the window. A telegram from Hammond to his mother.

Clue- Movie ticket stub
On the dresser, by the box of chocolates.

Clue- Magazine Coupon; P.O.I.- Candy Edwards
Examine the magazine on the small round table. Look in the lower right corner of the second page. You’ll find that one Candy Edwards has filled out the coupon here.

Clue- Bookmakers’ payouts
Look on the night stand to the left of the bed.

Candy Edwards’ Address-Aleve Motel

As soon as you enter Candy’s apartment, you’ll have to fight some guy who just punched her. When he’s down, look in his pockets. He has a list of bookmakers and a switchblade.

Clue- Bus ticket
Look on the dresser in Candy’s apartment.

Clue- Cunard Ascania
On the dresser, next to the bus ticket.

Candy Edwards
Whereabouts of Hammond- Lie; Use the magazine coupon to prove the lie.

List of odds recovered- Lie; Use the bookmaker’s odds to prove the lie.

Plans to leave town- Doubt

You’ll have to tail Candy after staking out her apartment. This is simple, and you can do this without using cover or incognito to get the achievement. All you have to do is stay as far back as possible when following her. Sometimes the icon will flash, indicating that you’re lagging too far behind. Just run forward several steps and keep the distance.

First Bookmaker’s Office

Clue- Bookie’s notepad
After talking to the bookmaker, go to his phone and examine the notepad. Usethe pencil to shade it in. You’ll find out where Candy’s going next, the Examiner Drugstore.

Examiner Drugstore

Clue- Yellow Cab Co. card
Talk to the bookmaker, then look by the phone for a yellow card. Afterwards, use the phone to trace the location of the cab. Talk to the bookmaker again when you’re finished.

Bus Depot
Once you find the cab, Candy comes out and gets back into it. Tail the cab all the way to the bus station. Get out and take a seat in the first chair you can find with a newspaper on it. Candy will wander around for a few seconds and then go into the bathroom. Go towards the bathroom and you’ll hear
screaming and shots. Enter to find Candy, dieing in a bathroom stall.

Clue- Revolver
It’s on the floor just outside of the stall, by the handbag. Examine it further and you’ll find that one shot has been fired.

Clue- Movie ticket; Location- Egyptian Theatre
Examine the handbag on the floor next to the gun.

Egyptian Theatre
After all the cutscenes, you’ll have to take down three men inside the theater. One is on the balcony to your left, so watch out. Once they’re all down, the case is closed.
