Once Chloe and Joyce have had a bit of an argument over curfews, school, and, of course, David, she’ll send Chloe out with David’s keys so he can drive you to school. Before he can, though, he’ll need the socket set from the garage to fix the spark plug on his car. Head in, open the toolbox on the floor and grab the socket set. Before heading back out, however, look back down at the toolbox. You’ll have the ability to graffiti his toolbox in a typical Chloe way.

This one’s a little bit trickier than the previous ones. When Chloe is in her rage with the baseball bat, you’ll need to first ‘smash’ the Good Kiddos sign in this area. Then, ‘smash’ the cans of paint piled up nearby and you should see a splatter appear on the sign.
Head back to the sign and Chloe should now have the option to draw some more optional graffiti. Now, let the smashing continue!

After Chloe’s fit of rage, she’ll find herself in the car. You’ll need to move the Tempest poster out of the pouch on the back of the seat in front of you.
