Map
You can click these maps to see each store. You can rollover the map to see which store is which number.

Camera battery
As Frank leaves the warehouse, to his right is Cam's Camera, where Frank can refresh his camera battery in the far left corner.

Cut From The Same Cloth scoop
Otis will call Frank about this scoop at 2 pm.

Since Cut From The Same Cloth has less time left than Case 1-2, and it is also conveniently in the same plaza Frank starts out at, make it Frank's first goal before going to finish Case 1-2 Backup for Brad.

Picking up items in Paradise Plaza
Before meeting Brad in the Food Court, pick up two books, the katana, and a sub-machine gun in Paradise Plaza. There is also food and a blender in Colombian Roastmasters restaurant on the second floor.

Sub-machine Gun
All of the sub-machine guns in the game are hidden. There is one in Paradise Plaza.

To begin walk to first set of stairs, next to Kid's Choice Clothing.

Second, when Frankes reach the stairs landing, turn towards Kid's Choice Clothing and the door to the Warehouse. Jump over the railing and climb onto the blue overhang, being very careful not to fall.

Continue to walk or jump from overhang to overhang. One overhang has a Stuffed Bear, Orange Juice, and a Cardboard Box.

Third, Jump on two more overhangs and a sub-machine gun is on the third blue overhang.

Colombian Roastmasters
Colombian Roastmasters has infinite orange juice. It also has a blender, which allows Frank to make power-ups with food collected in the mall.

Katana
Because of the poor targeting system in Dead Rising melee weapons work much better than firearms. One of the strongest melee weapons is hidden in Paradise Plaza. Walk to Colombian Roastmasters. Just to the right of the cooler with orange juice is a railing.

Jump over the railing onto a brown overhang, being careful not to jump to far. A katana is laying on this overhang. The katana will respawn each time Frank returns to Paradise Plaza.

Books
Books increase Franks abilities. Frank does not have enough item slots to carry all of the books available, so pick up the two most important books right now in two different bookstores:
 * 1) Contemporary Reading, Weekly Photo Magazine (see prestige points icons over zombie's heads)
 * 2) Bachman's Bookporium, Engineering Book (makes construction and tool items last three times longer).

Leisure Park
Walk out of Paradise Plaza and follow the arrow to the Food Court entrance.

Leisure Park Lawnmower


At the entrance is a horde of zombies. To the right of the zombies is a lawnmower which Frank can try out.

pushes the lawnmower and releases the lawnmower. Clear a path, then enter the Food Court.

Barricade Pair Scoop
Depending on the time, on the way to help Brad, Otis may call Frank with the Barricade Pair scoop, which starts at 4 pm.

Wine
In Chris' Fine Foods is wine, stock up before going to attack Carlito.

Carlito escapes
After defeating Carlito, Carlito escapes through the roof. Helping Brad defeat Carlito apparently isn't enough for Brad to start trusting Frank, but a photo of the old man that Frank saw in the Entrance Plaza catches Brad's interest enough for the Department of Homeland Security agent to agree to a temporary alliance with Frank.
