Cyberpunk 2077 They Won’t Go When I Go Walkthrough

They Won’t Go When I Go is a Side Job in Cyberpunk 2077 (CP77). This walkthrough will guide you through all steps of the They Won’t Go When I Go Side Quest.

Area: Westbrook (Japantown)
Quest Giver: Rachel
Requirement: Complete Side Job “There is a Light That Never Goes Out“, wait 12 in-game hours for Rachel to call you
Reward: €$Money (Depending on whether the braindance was considered successful or not, Rachel takes a really long time to send it to you)
Mission Info: Well, whaddaya know. This corpo-slut from the crucifixion BD wants you to come back to give her star a pep talk, massage his fucking shoulders and whatnot. Normally I’d tell you to drop it, find something more fun to do, but… I dunno, seems like this Jesus freak could really use your help.

Objectives:

• Talk to Rachel
• Talk to Vasquez
• Go inside the braindance studio
• Talk to Rachel
• Talk to Joshua Stephenson
• Help Joshua record the BD
• Take the hammer and nail
• Nail Joshua to the cross
• Raise the cross
• Stay with Joshua until he dies
• Talk to Rachel

This job is part of a questline, make sure you don’t fail any of these as it would void the next quest: Sinnerman > There is a Light That Never Goes Out >  They Won’t Go When I Go.

Starting Location: They Won’t Go When I Go

Talk to Rachel

After at least 12 in-game hours have passed from finishing the prior job, Rachel will call you and ask you to come to the braindance studio. If you tell her no then the job just ends right here, so you should agree to go.

Talk to Vasquez

Go up to the studio gate and speak to Vasquez, and he’ll send you through and tell you what door in the lot to go into.

Go inside the braindance studio

Last building on the left, wait for the security guard to let you inside.

Talk to Rachel

Rachel is inside speaking to someone, then directs you back to speak with Joshua.

Talk to Joshua Stephenson

IMPORTANT: This “[Sit]” dialogue with Joshua is the last important dialogue for determining whether the braindance is successful or not. 2 of the 4 are considered “BAD” options, and picking either of them counts 2 towards the background counter from the prior job. So if you had picked two bad options in the prior job, then pick one of the bad options now, it would put the counter to 4 and the braindance would fail.

• “This is crazy, don’t do it” > Bad
• “Stay strong, you can do it” > Good
• “Got pure intentions, but this isn’t the way to act on them.” > BAD
• “You’re a true rebel, a true revolutionary.” > Good

After that dialogue Joshua asks you if you want to pray or not, which the choice of doesn’t matter. Finally, he asks whether you want to participate in the braindance recording with him.

• If you choose to participate you directly perform the actions of the recording, which gives some unique dialogue from both Johnny and V.
• If you choose just to watch someone else performs the actions and you just sit through it in a chair. Whether you participate or not doesn’t change the outcome or your rewards.
• If you chose not to watch then the job just ends right now and you get the rewards the same from Rachel later.

Help Joshua record the BD

Follow Joshua out into the other room. If you chose just to watch, you interact with the chair in the middle to wait through the recording.

Take the hammer and nail

Pick up the hammer and nail from the table to the left.

Nail Joshua to the cross

Interact with both of Joshua’s arms and legs to nail him to the cross.

Raise the cross

Interact with the nearby button to raise the cross.

Stay with Joshua until he dies

Wait in the room for Joshua to pass away.

Talk to Rachel

Speak to Rachel at the back of the room. Whatever you say to her doesn’t matter, the job will be complete. She will call you in the future and send you your reward dependent on whether the braindance was a success or not (this seems to take a really long time, don’t worry too much about it the reward isn’t huge even if the braindance was a success).

This finishes They Won’t Go When I Go side quest job in Cyberpunk 2077 (CP77).
