Alerted Big Sam without raising Tyler's suspicion

How to unlock the Message Received achievement in As Dusk Falls - Definitive Guide

For some reason I couldn't get the guides already on here to work for me, but this game does seem to genuinely alter based on various choices, so this is the combo that worked for me.
This takes place in Chapter 1, if you're replaying from 'explore story' you can pick the scene "Big Sam Arrives" and start from there.

Earlier in the episode I had lied and said it was just Me & Dad to the robbers. So the wife and kid were safe until they came into the room during this scene. I'm not sure if this will work if your family has already been found.
Choices in this order;

Don't Move Evidence

Wife and Kid

On the Run

Fugitives on The Loose

Help

If Big Sam tells you that he will call for backup and "you should laugh like (he) just told you a joke" then you did this correctly.

It is likely there are more possibilities but this one actually works.
And even the dialogue options make the most sense.
Funny thing is tho, Tyler actually gets suspicious, but you'll get the achievement lmao.

To earn this achievement you need Big Sam to become suspicious of Vince and his wellbeing without raising the Holt's suspicions.

To accomplish this, load up the "Holts Stormed the Motel" section of the Chapter 1 story tree.

The important decisions which will impact this achievement are as follows:

When asked by the Holts who you're with, choose "Just my dad".
When Big Sam enters and Vince looks at the earring on the ground, choose to hide the evidence.
When asked by Big Sam who you're with, once again choose "Just my dad".
When your wife enters the motel, wait for a few moments after the two dialogue options appear. A third option will appear above the first two saying "Nothing", select this.
When Big Sam and your wife ask if everything is okay, just say "Yep".

Big Sam will walk past you as he leaves and let you know he's going to call for back up. Your achievement should then pop.

This can be found in the video below at the 4:28 mark.

This is during the scene where the three Brothers have everyone hostage at the motel and the cop comes in and starts asking questions.

The answers I gave were:

•don’t hide evidence (Blue earring)

•Help

Requires that you admit you wife and kid are with you , and crack a joke about being on the run. When Zoe and Michelle enter, Zoe should find the earring triggering Sam to question events, and when Sam asks respond help. You should end up telling him to call back up which triggers him to walk by you and respond before telling you to laugh like you just told a joke. Achievement should then pop.

If you admit family is with you, Dale will go search rooms and bring them back (but out of sight). In that case big Sam finds the earring and Vince still gets the option to say “help.”
