Back to the Dawn Beth Birthday Code (Nurse)

Written by Michael Owen | Back to the Dawn

In *Back to the Dawn*, Beth’s birthday acts as a crucial code for escaping through the infirmary. Players must build trust with her, gather personal details, and navigate multiple steps to exploit this route. Below is a breakdown of methods to access the infirmary, earn Beth’s trust, and execute the escape.

Gaining Infirmary Access

Players can enter the infirmary using the following strategies. Repeated visits help increase your Rapport with Beth.

  • Physical Exam: Grants one-time access per playthrough for temporary work privileges.
  • Losing a Fight: Lose intentionally to be hospitalized.
  • Using Laxatives: Request guard assistance after consuming the item.
  • Weak Body Status: Ask guards for infirmary access if you have this trait.
  • Treatment Plan Unlocked: Schedule regular visits after earning Beth’s trust.

Earning Beth’s Trust

  • Increase Rapport to **60+** by visiting frequently.
  • Accelerate progress with gifts like bouquets or love letters.
  • At 60 Rapport, confess feelings to receive her treatment schedule.

Retrieving the Infirmary Code

The healing room keypad requires a **randomized four-digit code based on Beth’s birthday**. Two methods exist:

  1. Reach 60 Rapport and ask her directly.
  2. Use the **IT skill** to hack the keypad (requires unlocking via specific books).

Escaping via the Infirmary

Follow these steps after obtaining the code:

  • Enter the infirmary after **17:30**.
  • Input the birthday code at the keypad.
  • Disassemble the window (200-point timed check).
  • Escape using **8 Agility** or lockpicking nearby doors.
  • Scale the radio tower and glide down with items like a Strength Belt.

Note: Success varies based on timing, stats, and NPC interactions.

Sewer Escape Alternative

Bypass the birthday code entirely with these steps:

  • Enter sewers via the toilet area.
  • Craft a wooden bridge using planks from the large door.
  • Cross to the abandoned operation room.
  • Position the medical bed under a rusted vent.
  • Befriend **Walter the Skunk** to unlock corrosive solution crafting.
  • Apply the solution during daytime.
  • Access the infirmary through the vent at night.

This method skips Rapport checks and code RNG but requires meticulous preparation.
