Grave Decision
Call Clyde after Shift 12 and he comes to the station to sacrifice himself so the pet lives. The simplest ending to reach when the $250 never materialised.

How to unlock: Let Clyde die to save your Pet
Difficulty: Story
The fallback ending, and the easiest of the three to reach deliberately.
The actual condition
Call Clyde after Shift 12. That's the entire trigger. He comes to the station and sacrifices himself so the pet can live — no money required, no economic pressure.
This is the ending to take when the $250 for the surgery never came together. Rather than letting the run collapse into Empty Home, calling Clyde converts a failed economy into a "good-ish" outcome where the pet survives.
⚠️ Critical: if you killed Clyde Dawson earlier in the run, this achievement is unreachable — and so are the other two. A dead sheriff means there's no one on the other end of the phone.
How it fits the other two
- Call Clyde → Grave Decision (Clyde dies, pet lives)
- Don't call + $250 → True Ending (both live)
- Don't call + under $250 → Empty Home (pet dies)
Because the choice is binary, you can't get all three on one save file. Plan on a second playthrough for the branch you skipped.
