    So I've gotten to the point where I need a password for a document. I'm pretty confident I know what the initials stand for, but the clue is pretty bizarre.

    I've done some open-source searching for the answer (it seems like that's where the answer is to be found), and I haven't found any hint of the entity they're asking for.

    Anyone else gotten the answer yet?

    Hey,
    If you look at the exact wording of the password hint;
    EM!'s other father (LAST NAME ONLY)
    you might want to revisit your idea regarding the meaning of the initials.

    For me this hint dont given nothing. Second day at this moment, and dont understand what this hint mean. I think EM is

    Emmanuel Macron, but last name of his father it is wrong password

    I can confirm that the english Wikipedia entry regarding EM! contains the correct answer...

    In hindsight that makes sense, though it might have been better had that entity been mentioned previously. I'm familiar with it, but it's not mentioned earlier in the case, and the other EM is a reasonable conclusion. Didn't run across it in my open-source searching either, and I'm not sure I would have come up with it on my own (though that exact wording did send me on some searching for other entities). Still,
    that entity is so centered on one person it's hard to find anything, even in their official literature, that might indicate more than one father.

    The clue does say last name only in all caps

    That's an interesting interpretation--I interpreted that as
    indicating emphasis, not case. In fact, I was wondering about case--I've been mostly using proper case, but on the more likely ones I used both proper case and lowercase.

    Yep, that's it though.

    I think I'm trying to open the same file, but, where the heck did you guys find a clue...?

    The clue is in the document--it says "here is what the password is".

    Sounds like I'm looking at the wrong file

    Grey, you may not be talking about the same document. For the one they're talking about, you're given a web link to browse to outside of the game. I think you're talking about tryng to crack passwords within someone's computer.

    With a follow-up hint
    You don't always have to break the password. In one case, browsing to the folder demands a password. But using active directory bypasses the password requirement

    The mission briefing tells you the types of ministers to look for (bold text in mission briefing PDF).
    Via google I found 2 that I could xkeyscore. There's a third you'll need to find (either trial and error, or better googling than I). that'll give you what you need.

    With the job types the mission document asks you to look for, you can cross out the majority of the list via the french government's official site. Keep in mind that not every guest is listed on the site. Also keep in mind that the president and PM have different teams.
