Beholder 4 Martha Guide: Saving Martha Walkthrough
A spoiler-filled Martha rescue guide based on the available Beholder community walkthrough, including medicines, costs, timers, and quest steps.
The available source is a community guide for Beholder, not a separately identified game or entry called Beholder 4. It does, however, contain a detailed walkthrough for Martha Stein, Carl’s six-year-old daughter. If “Beholder 4” refers to this same game and storyline, the route below explains how the guide reports saving Martha, including the required medicines, purchases, money checks, and follow-up conversations. The information is community-reported rather than an official quest document. (Aka’s Beholder Guide)
Martha’s Role
Martha Stein is listed as Carl and Anna Stein’s six-year-old daughter. Her illness storyline is part of the guide’s section titled “Saving Martha,” and it begins around the same period as the order to evict Klaus Schimmer.
The guide warns that this rescue is expensive. It also says that the Schimmer eviction gives Carl 240 hours, so the eviction itself should not necessarily be treated as the first priority when Martha’s illness begins. That does not mean the entire Martha sequence has the same 240-hour limit. The guide identifies a separate 92-hour limit later, when money must be gathered for imported antibiotics.
Because the source describes the quest as expensive and time-sensitive, keeping money available before triggering the later stages is a sensible preparation step. The guide specifically recommends having the large antibiotic payment ready before beginning the part of the storyline that requires it.
How to Start the Illness Story
- Watch for an exclamation mark above Anna’s head.
- Talk to Anna and ask what is wrong.
- She explains that Martha is sick and needs aspirin.
- Obtain aspirin and give it to Anna.
The community guide lists Nathan as a seller of aspirin and gives a price of $465. It also reports that aspirin may possibly be stolen from tenants, but the source does not present that alternative as a guaranteed or universally safe method. Buying the aspirin is the clearly described route.
After receiving the aspirin, the task may appear to be complete. The guide emphasizes that this is only the first stage. Talk to Anna again later rather than assuming that the initial medicine ends Martha’s illness.
Get a Doctor’s Examination
Anna eventually explains that the aspirin did not work and that Martha needs a doctor. At this point:
- Speak with Alloisius Shpak.
- Ask him to examine Martha.
- Wait for the examination to progress.
- Talk to Alloisius again to learn the diagnosis and treatment requirement.
Alloisius is identified in the character list as a doctor and tenant. According to the guide, he later says that Martha needs imported antibiotics. The antibiotics cost $20,000, and the guide reports a 92-hour deadline to collect the money and give it to him.
The source recommends preparing the money before triggering this stage. That advice matters because the payment is far larger than the earlier aspirin purchase. If the listed prices are followed, the aspirin, antibiotics, apple, heater, and cough syrup together require $38,435. This total is only the sum of the prices stated in the guide; it does not include other household costs, purchases, or losses.
Pay for the Antibiotics
When Alloisius explains the treatment requirement:
- Gather $20,000.
- Give the money to Alloisius before the reported 92-hour limit expires.
- Wait for him to leave and return.
- Speak with him after he comes back.
- Receive the treatment item from him.
- Give it to Anna.
The guide does not describe an additional purchase trip for the antibiotics after the payment. Instead, it says that Alloisius takes the money, returns later, and gives Carl the medicine. The next step is to bring that medicine to Anna.
Apple and Heater Requests
After Anna receives the medicine, she asks Carl to get Martha an apple. The guide identifies Nathan as the seller and lists the apple at $720.
The same section advises buying the heater at this point because Anna will request it immediately afterward. The listed heater price is $2,250.
The reported sequence is:
- Buy an apple from Nathan for $720.
- Buy a heater for $2,250.
- Give the apple to Anna.
- Talk to Anna again.
- Give her the heater when she asks for it.
The guide presents these as separate hand-ins rather than one combined delivery. If the heater is not already available, purchasing it alongside the apple avoids another delay while the family quest is active.
Final Cough Syrup Step
After the heater is delivered, speak with Anna again. The guide says that Martha then needs cough syrup.
Ask Nathan about the cough syrup. The community walkthrough reports that he requests $15,000 and then hands over the medicine after receiving the money. It specifically says that Nathan does not require Carl to go elsewhere to collect the syrup.
The final reported steps are:
- Talk to Anna after delivering the heater.
- Ask Nathan about cough syrup.
- Give Nathan $15,000.
- Take the cough syrup from him.
- Give the medicine to Anna.
The guide considers the storyline complete after this final hand-in and describes the outcome as saving Martha.
Preparation Checklist
Before starting or advancing the quest, the source supports checking the following:
- Have access to Nathan, who is associated with the aspirin, apple, and cough syrup purchases.
- Keep enough money available for the $20,000 antibiotic payment.
- Remember the reported 92-hour antibiotic deadline.
- Treat the initial aspirin hand-in as only the opening stage.
- Speak with Anna again after each major delivery.
- Keep the heater ready for the follow-up request.
- Avoid assuming that the Schimmer eviction must be completed immediately, since the guide says its reported 240-hour window provides some flexibility.
The source does not provide a complete money-making route, so it cannot establish the safest way to raise the required funds. It also does not confirm whether every alternative method, such as stealing aspirin, works in every playthrough.
Related Family Task
Martha also appears in the guide’s “Trust and care” section. That separate task involves finding Patrick economic books, locating Martha’s doll named Naira, and obtaining a saucepan for Anna. The guide says the books can be bought from Nathan or requested from Klaus Schimmer, while Maria Schimmer can provide the saucepan. It hints that Naira’s doll is nearby and is not the teddy bear visible in plain sight.
The author labels the overall “Trust and care” mission as possibly optional and says this is not completely certain. Therefore, completing that family task should not be treated as a confirmed prerequisite for saving Martha. The documented illness route begins with Anna’s exclamation mark and the aspirin request.
What Is Confirmed
The supplied material confirms only what the community guide reports for Beholder. A separate “Beholder 4” identity, release-specific version, platform detail, or alternate Martha storyline is not independently established by the source. For the referenced storyline, the reported rescue route is aspirin, examination by Alloisius, $20,000 for antibiotics, delivery of the returned medicine, an apple, a heater, and finally $15,000 for cough syrup.
