Here's a guide how to successfully steal Maya's contract from Patrick:
You can have up to 6 ep10_patrick_penalty points to be able to steal it. If you exceed that number, you WILL fail.
Here's a list of things that yield you those points:
1)Telling Josy about about Chad at the beginning of Episode 8 += 1 point.
2)Failing to hide from Patrick during freeroam += 3 points.
3)Choosing "He lets me be me" option when you're asked what you're thankful for at the table +=1 point. Afterwards, picking "Rub it in" +=1 point.
4)
a)Punching him when he physically abuses Maya += 5 points;
b)Confronting him += 3 points;
c)Chick option doesn't yield any points.
5)This is gonna be a pain in the ass to explain. It depends on your behavior during Patrick's visit to Maya's dorm in Episode 7.
a)If you were rude to him and didn't pick "cheap sheets" option += 3 points;
b)If you were rude to him and picked "cheap sheets" option += 2 points;
c)If you were polite with him and didn't pick "cheap sheets" option +1 = point;
d)If you were polite with him and picked "cheap sheets" option, you don't get any point.
