Mark Hoffman was left to rot in the infamous bathroom, the same one where Adam Stanheight Zepp Hindle and Xavier Chavez died. This place was the spot where Lawrence Gordon severed his foot. Once the door was slammed shut, he knew his options were limited.

Hoffman grabbed a toilet tank lid and repeatedly smashed it against his foot. He was able to slide out of the shackle and walk up with his damaged foot. His means of escape were similar to what Eric Matthews had done a few years prior. It didn't take him long to open the sliding door. Lawrence wasn't anywhere to be seen. Now that he knows of his involvement, it angers the detective.

Mark exited the dilapidated shithole but knew that he was a wanted man. He couldn't be out in public, so he wore a disguise and ventured to a warehouse no one knew about. Once there, he began plotting another game. Setting the plan into motion, Hoffman hid the blueprints for upcoming traps. He felt a tap on his shoulder, turned around, and saw you. "What do you want?" Hoffman asked you sternly.
