How to unlock the Shattering Expectations achievement in The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil In Me - Definitive Guide

Spoilers ahead. This is one easy path to the achievement. If more are discovered, the solution will be updated.

Late in the story Jamie and Kate will find the central "control hub" of the house, and they will discuss trapping the killer between two sliding walls. Jamie will offer to be the bait for this plan, and you will have to decide whether to take the screwdriver with Jamie or leave it with Kate. Take the screwdriver with Jamie.

After several more scenes play out, Jamie and Kate will find themselves trapped on opposite sides of a moving glass wall that is designed to squish one or the other of them. The wall is moving toward Jamie, but there is a button on her side that can reverse the wall's movement and kill Kate instead. Do not push the button on the glass wall.

The scene will play out and Jamie will appear to die, but never fear! It was a fakeout, and the screwdriver saved her by shattering the glass.

I am, I replayed it twice and both times it skipped the part where you had to manually hit the button. Then I replayed it starting from the previous chapter and it worked fine.

Yeah I can confirm I replayed this part and she pressed the button regardless of what I did. Fucking stupid.

For anyone having trouble with Jamie automatically pushing the button if you use Chapter Select, I managed to fix that by just not saying anything during her choice. It then let me manually push the button and I just waited out the timer for Extinguished.

This part seems to be bugged through chapter select. The action prompt that should appear when you choose defiant with Jamie doesn't happen, she always pushes the button

That's strange. I replayed this part through Chapter Select to get the opposite achievement (Jamie sacrifices herself) and it worked for me. By "action prompt" are you referring to the part where you have to hover the crosshairs over the button until it turns red if you want to press it?

FeelSplean says everything correctly
but it’s better to kill two birds with one stone (version 1.4) I don’t know about others
1) give the screwdriver to Kate the left answer, thereby adding the item to the trophy box
Handy (get all items)
2) perform both QTEs while running
3) in the corridor choose the right answer (run)
4) having fallen in the plot, choose the left answer option
5) in the glass chamber behind Jamie chooses the left answer (I want to live)
6) press the button

The hint above is incorrect. The screwdriver should stay with Jamie, therefore the wall should move towards it (just don’t press the red button)

The FeelSplean tip is correct, but there are some nuances.
I can't say for sure why, but when I chose to leave Jamie's screwdriver and chose not to press the button, she still pressed the button, even though the morals stated that she did not press the button. Perhaps this is due to the low relationship between Jamie and Kate, or maybe it’s just a bug.
If this happens to you, do this: leave the screwdriver with Kate, when Jamie has the choice of “Apology” or “Challenge”, select “Silence”. Jamie will automatically press the button, but Kate with the screwdriver will remain alive and the trophy will fall out.
