Not necessarily. The game asked you to 'wait a few days' before visiting her again. Activating the LR quests does NOT automatically enable the final M quest, at least not for me.

This DLC is a little old now, but I finished Langdon Ricketts' mission, waited a while, and got nothing. Maybe you need to finish all four survivor missions? I have one left.

I'm actually pretty sure that you MUST complete all quests available, barring the missing persons ones, to get the next quest to trigger. So you'd have to do both Ricketts as well as any others left then you'd be able to return to her.

I can confirm that you have to finish all four (side) missions before she's available. I did Filth (...) last.

I brought in a retcher zombie and I got the next message: "A Normal undead is needed for testing. Bolters, Bruisers and Rethcers are too far gone". So make sure you catch a "Normal" zombie ;)

For me at the Graveyard, the zombies (or "Undead") kept on coming so all my ammo was gone. This has happened to me more than once but I found out that I just needed to use the deadeye on the zombies and then it work but its not working now. Any help?angry

This is a solution to the "glitch" that was keeping me from getting this achievement. I was getting the headless zombie glitch and could not complete the mother superior "sepulcro" cemetery mission and could not advance in the game on the 360 game of the year disc version. I tried saving the game to the cloud and downloading it on the Xbox one to see if this would correct it which did not work. This is what worked for me,

1. from the dashboard go to settings find your red dead redemption game save files. I took my latest save and made a copy on the 360 hard drive.
2. then I disconnected from the Internet (personally I prefer a wired connection so I just unplugged my cord).
3. Then I cleared my cache. I think you press y when under settings.
4. Load game and play. If you want to earn the achievement while online wait till you finish the cemetery to "connect to Xbox live" you will see it save in corner when the cemetery is cleared.
5. I then took the update and it restarted the game, now I'm back "online" and I went back to the town and completed the requirements (short cutscenes) for the achievement. And achievement popped and same old glitchy gameplay resumed.

I assume if you're stuck in the game in other spots the same thing will work. I was able to play most of the areas even with glitchy gameplay (or just do the storyline offline).

From everything I could find online and in videos it appears that the glitch is caused by the update and clearing the cache is what clears the update.

I also noticed that my challenges that should've carried over from the main story were not available when playing with the update installed but when the update was gone I had access to tomahawk and explosive rifle challenges. I plan on uninstalling again and getting those challenges complete I'll add an update if this works.

Story related, cannot be missed.

Complete the "Mother Superior Blues" Survivor Mission:

Upon entering Mexico, you will meet a Mother Superior who will ask you to clear out the local village and rescue the nuns inside. After doing so, she will then ask you to capture an Undead for her to experiment holy water on. After you have captured one, Mother Superior will ask you to give her some time to think about what to do next.

You will also come across Landon Ricketts, who will ask you for Undead Bait and dynamite but some from saving towns. After you have gave Ricketts the items he needs he will then reward you with Boom Bait. You will then be able to go back to Mother Superior at the church, after speaking to her the trophy will unlock.

You will need 2 bottles of undead bait and 2 sticks of dynamite. We saved the bait from one of the previous missions; dynamite can be obtained by freeing El Matadero.

bait for zombies can also be made from two types of flowers, desert poppy + wild pyrethrum (1 piece of each type of flower)
