You can also completely ruin things too...

How to get to the bonus unlock page

After talking to Amy and Lola in the gym, and not continuing to play Lola's game (--ADD LINK--), leave the canteen and head down the corridor.

If the time is still 1:30pm, you can take a look into the gym. Any later and you can only continue to the media department.

From the gym doorway you will see Bridgette who is about to start her workout.

You must unlock the bonus scene if you want to enter the gym.

This Bonus scene costs 100 credits

The bonus scene starts with a series of animated sequences of Bridgette on the treadmill.

As you approach her from behind and she is listening to music so cannot hear you.
You can look at her body as she runs from various angles.

Note that these are multi-frame animations that my take a short time to load in fully. You may initially get a still frame or juddering animation.

If you wait a moment you can use the in game page refresh button but not the browser refresh button. You will get nice smooth looped animations once the images are fully loaded.

Move forward to get Bridgette's attention and she will stop the machine.

How she reacts to your presence depends very much on how your relationship with Bridgette has developed so far.

If it's already positive, her score will be high and you won't have any trouble progressing to the later stages of the scene.
You can develop a good relationship with Bridgette by playing any of the previous bonus scenes with her, or basically just not acting like a jerk.

If however, you have upset Bridgette in previous chapters, her reaction to you will be negative and her score below zero.

You need to work hard if you want to improve matters.

Start with the "I came to apologise" or "I wanted to clear the air" dialogue choices.

Follow this up with "I've been a bit of a jerk..." or "I've not been very professional this week."

She will agree with you and then you can say "I still want to help you Bridgette."

You can tell her you like her/talk about your relationship, but she will question your claim and your motives.

If she asks if you will still help, don't say "Only if I can take you out this evening?" Bridgette already suspects that you may have motives for helping her.

Depending on the specific pathway, instead say "Maybe I can prove you wrong?" or "I want to prove that I'm a good guy." and then suggest a date, to which she will respond with a maybe.

These dialogue choices should bring her score to at least 2.
---

Don't try kissing her unless her score is at least 3 otherwise she will respond negatively and your work will be undone.

The best you can hope for if you leave the gym without kissing Bridgette is a date but only if you are successful in getting Principal Valentine fired.

This pathway is essentially a way for you to clear the air with Bridgette.
An essential requirement should you wish to have all options available from Chapter Nine onwards.
---

If you entered the gym already having nurtured a good relationship with Bridgette, getting her to kiss you will be easy.

You can still screw things up with your dialogue responses and actions though.

Don't try putting your hands on her chest at this point either as she will get upset with you and tell you to leave.

If you get past the first kiss, she will flirt with you and ask for another kiss before pulling back.

The gym door is open and she is afraid of getting caught with you.

Head to the gym exit.
(There is a replay button here if you want or need to start the scene again)

If Bridgette's score is at it's maximum she will call out to you as you are leaving the gym.

She suggests closing the door and this escalates to more kissing and touching. You can touch her body and undress her until she is completely naked.
---

Getting disturbed by Sebastian is unavoidable part of the scene, but Bridgette can hide from him behind the door.

When Sebastian insists on entering the gym you can prevent him from seeing the fully naked Bridgette as she hides in the corner.

You can try to get him to leave but he suspects that you may be hiding something from him.
You have an important choice here.

You can be cruel and reveal the naked Bridgette to Sebastian. This of course will upset Bridgette very much and ruin your relationship with her instantly.
Sebastian on the other hand is rendered almost speechless by what he sees...

The other option is to get Sebastian to leave by claiming you don't know where to get changed for your workout.
Bridgette clearly prefers this option.
---

Once Sebastian has left, you can return to the gym doorway and talk to Bridgette.

She will either be horrified at your cruel bahaviour, or happy that you helped to save her dignity in a very risky situation.

Even Sebastian however isn't impressed with you if you are cruel to Bridgette.

He will inform Miss Goodhead and that can eventually get you fired at the end of the day even if you are otherwise successful in getting Principal Valentine suspended.

On the other hand, if Bridgette is happy with you, she will reiterate her desire to go out on a date with you.
