How to unlock the This Is Despicable achievement in Tell Me Why - Definitive Guide

I unlocked this one trying to open the barn door, near Ronan's house, three times with cn_A (thanks BlakManDan)

Here's the location, you can access it from Isolation Mode (via Chapter Selection) in case you missed it:

EDIT: Apparently, this is the only place it works, if anyone got somewhere else please let us know.

The front door didn't do anything but can confirm it worked trying to open the barn door 3 times in "A Big Wooden House" chapter.

If you missed this, like I did, you can replay the chapter and scene in Isolation mode and get it.
Just go to main menu, chapters and select Homecoming - big wooden house. Try to open the door on the right of the barn 3 times

I could not get this to work with any of the locked doors in the police station. Tried each 3-4 times.

First opportunity seems to be shed. Ronan house front door just says “locked” after 1st attempt. Can test shed door 3x in quick succession for achievement.

Yeah, the door for the shed is the only one that works afaics. Which is the normalsized door to the right of the garage double doors.

The doors in the police station will not unlock this achievement, neither will the front door to the house.

Chapter selection --> (Ep1) Homecoming --> A Big Wooden House --> Isolation Mode --> the door is in front of you and to the right.

just to be clear it's the little door on the right, not the big double doors. this can be done as soon as you start part 4 "A Big Wooden House".

This requires you to try to open the same locked door three times in a row. The earliest point is to use the shed door when you arrive at your old family home in "A Big Wooden House". But you can do this with any locked door in Episode 1. You can replay any section of the Episode in Isolation mode without overwriting your story progress.

Thumbs up for being the only solution which actually mentions which section to do it in.

When you reach the old house (The Ronan's house), there is a barn to the right of it. You have to try to open the locked side door of the barn a few times for it to pop!

Here is a video guide with all the missable achievements! The This Is Despicable Achievement Guide starts at 0:42! The timestamps for all the achievements and collectibles are in the description! Hope this helps!

Here is my 100% Achievement guide for Episode 1 of Tell Me Why.

This is the first missable achievement in the game (although if you do miss it, you can easily chapter select to get back there quick).

After you take a short boat ride with Alyson and her car and have a long convo with her.
You end up outside the Ronan house (Its Obvious as you can't miss it and they explain that its the house)

They try to open the door but its locked.
When you regain control of Tyler again, from the door go left and you see a barn.
Well just right to the barn you see a door, try to unlock that 3 to 4 times with the cn_A button and achievement should unlock.

Go to 27:25 in the video to see the exact location of where this is obtainable.

Hope This helps!

This requires you to try to open the same locked door three times in a row. The earliest, and only, point is to use the shed door when you arrive at your old family home in ‘A Big Wooden House’. It seems that no other door through the chapter works for unlocking this achievement. You can replay parts of the chapter in Isolation mode and not overwrite your story.
