"We're sorry. Two days on the road makes him a grumpy old man." — The mother to Sean Diaz if he aggravated the father in "Roads"
The "Father" is a member of the travelling Californian family whom Sean Diaz can optionally encounter at Bear Station during Episode 1 of Life is Strange 2.
Personality[]
He is unfriendly and somewhat distrustful towards strangers, such as when he gets suspicious of Sean and Daniel if they manage to get food from the family as well as acting rudely towards the brothers if they fail to get food from them.
Appearance[]
The father is a middle-aged man with blue eyes, short brown hair, and a salt-and-pepper goatee. He wears a dark blue quarter-zip pullover over a plaid white button down and a blue undershirt, blue jeans, and brown desert boots, along with a golden wedding ring on his left hand.
Background[]
The father and his family are from Berkeley, California.
Episode One - "Roads"[]
Two days into their drive to visit their new vacation home in Vancouver, the father and his family take a rest stop at a gas station near Mount Rainier National Park, where they purchase food and sit together at a picnic table. While they eat, the father complains about the lack of reception and the cold weather.
If Sean sent Daniel to beg
If Sean sends Daniel to beg, Daniel walks up to the family's table and has a short conversation with them. He mentions that his brother is sick, to which the mother sympathetically gives him a bag of chips. Sean can choose to have a conversation with the family afterwards, where he thanks the mother for giving them food. Should Sean ask the mother about their visit, the father will join in on the conversation regarding the weather, and Sean can either go along with the conversation or unintentionally agitate him.
If Sean eavesdrops on the family after successfully soliciting food, the father can be heard muttering to his wife about his suspicions regarding the brothers.If Sean begs for food himself
If Sean decides to talk to the family himself, he has the option to make small talk with them before asking them for food. During their conversation, the mother is the one who primarily speaks, while the father and their daughter occasionally make interjections. Should Sean ask the mother about their visit, the father will join in on the conversation regarding the weather, and Sean can either go along with the conversation or unintentionally agitate him.
If Sean either leaves an overall good impression or provides details as to why he and Daniel are there, the mother sympathetically hands them a large bag of chips, enough to last them for the rest of the day. Should Sean eavesdrop on the family afterwards, the father can be heard muttering to his wife about his suspicions regarding the brothers.
If Sean either leaves an overall poor impression, fails to provide details when prompted, or neglects to make small talk, the father and daughter make dismissive remarks after Sean asks for food, to which the mother gives into as she apologizes for not helping.
