Returning from The Good Time Club, Booker and Elizabeth emerge into the Plaza of Zeal to discover fresh Columbia police forces guarding the square. Players can use the code cipher retrieved in the club to solve the optional Vox Populi puzzle in the watchmaker shop. The primary objective is fighting across the plaza and re-entering Chen Lin's gunsmith workshop to find him in the alternate reality opened by the tear.
