Divided They Fall is the 14th scene in Manhunt, where James Earl Cash is ambushed by Ramirez and the remaining members of the Wardogs, and must kill them to escape.
Mission[]
After escaping Darkwoods Penitentiary and eliminating the Smileys and White Rabbit in Kill the Rabbit, Cash is on the run from Starkweather. While making his way through the Darkwoods district of Carcer City, he suddenly runs into Ramirez and the Wardogs who have been instructed by Starkweather to capture the death row inmate.
Caught completely off-guard, Cash takes a beating from Ramirez, pinned down to the ground, and is stripped of all his weapons before he and several Wardogs mercifully let him loose outside an abandoned apartment building, for a game of 'hide and seek'. Ramirez heads up to his room and uses a Sniper Rifle to try and spot Cash from above, while three of his Wardogs are at ground level hunting him. But Cash kills them with ease.
Now frustrated, Ramirez angrily sends Wardogs armed with Shotguns down in an attempt to finish Cash off. But, he kills them as well and begins making his way up the apartment complex in search of Ramirez, killing all the Wardogs in his path.
Ramirez doubles back past Cash and runs downstairs while more Wardogs head upwards. Cash heads back downstairs killing all the Wardogs in his way once more. If Cash fails to kill Ramirez within 2 minutes and 30 seconds, two additional Wardogs with Sniper Rifles will arrive, making it harder to survive.
Once Ramirez himself is finally dead, Cash escapes the area and runs away to the sound of gunshots (implying he did not completely wipe out the Wardogs) and is suddenly but thankfully picked up by the female Journalist seen in the opening cutscene of Born Again who drives him away to safety in her car. She explains to Cash that she is trying to bring down Lionel Starkweather, but he is on to her and needs his help.

Trivia[]
Manhunt - Ramirez Execution HD
- Unlike other antagonists or traditional Hunters, Ramirez cannot be executed. If the player tries to perform an execution, there will be a short cutscene where Cash grabs Ramirez from behind into a chokehold, but being a former U.S. Air Force Combat Controller (suggested by the red beret he wears) he fights and knocks Cash off and then taunts him, leaving the player vulnerable to attack. To kill him, Cash must shoot him down with a firearm or beat him to death.
- When Cash tries to execute Ramirez, the game oddly will still count it in the number of Hunters executed, although Ramirez himself won't die nor take any damage.
- Ramirez's backup consists of two Wardogs wielding Sniper Rifles.
- Strangely, if the player tries to execute Ramirez with a Plastic Bag, it will disappear after the "execution". But, if the player tries that with a Wire, it will remain in Cash's inventory. With the use of trainer mods, if an attempt with the Chainsaw (not found in the level) is performed, the same animation will play and Ramirez’ head will fall. However, he still will not die or take damage.
- When Ramirez is killed by Cash's hand, a Painkiller is rewarded.
- During the opening cutscene, Cash is carrying a Shotgun and a Heavy Handgun, despite what the player may be actually carrying at the end of the previous scene.
- This is the scene where Cash (and the player) find out the Director's actual name, revealed by the Journalist in the ending cutscene, although it was already mentioned several times before by the Smileys and Ramirez in dialogue.
- This level has the only appearance of the Ice Pick (obtainable only via trainer).
- The shop on the ground floor of the left building is a copy of the doughnut shop in Little Haiti from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. But, this one is a little larger.
- The map of this scene is actually the cut area from Born Again. This explains the interior of the same donut shop, as well as the ending cutscene taking place right outside the entrance to the cut area.
- The scene has 32 Hunters in total. 29 Wardogs will be encountered if Ramirez was killed before his backup arrives, while two more Wardogs will come if the player fails to kill Ramirez within a 2 minutes and 30 second time limit.
- Inside one of the rooms in Ramirez's apartment are two hung decapitated corpses above four body bags resembling Piggsy. These same corpses can also be seen in Hard as Nails.
- This is the only scene in the game where all the garbage bags have hidden weapons. Also, this is the only scene where the player can find two hidden Painkillers in two garbage bags.
- In the ending cutscene, gunshots can be heard, implying Cash did not kill all the Wardogs entirely, and therefore the only gang in the game that has not been completely wiped out by the death row inmate.
- Graffiti resembling the style of the Innocentz can be found outside the apartment block sprayed onto the walls. This would suggest that they once inhabited this area.
