Cole is an FBI agent and colleague of Norman Jayden. Prior to the events of Heavy Rain, he and Norman take part in an ARI training simulation together.
Background[]
As the Chronicles episode Cole would have appeared in was never released, not much is known about him.
The simulation in which Cole and Norman participate has them facing a group of terrorists who have taken hostages and planted a bomb in a building. After finding the room with the bomb, Norman tries to defuse it while Cole stays behind to help the hostages and communicates with him by phone. The scenario can end with Cole being shot by either one of the hostages or Norman, with the two agents successfully defusing the bomb, or with the bomb exploding before they can defuse it. Regardless of how the simulation ends, a technician informs them that it still has a few glitches and reminds them to attend the debriefing.
