    This achievement was giving me fits. Apparently, the right answers aren't so obvious to meredface I found a video, which you can watch here
    I will list the dialogue choices by chapter.
    Chapter 2 One of Us
    -Drink tea
    -Correcting paths?
    -Not the same cause
    -... (this will be the only time you ever respond with silence)
    -Open it
    -Does it matter?
    -Redeem?
    -My interrogator
    -Assadollah Lajevardi (he will smack you, but that's fine)
    -Hajj Agha
    -Just a photographer
    Chapter 7 Big Brother
    -Tell me more
    -You had a cause
    -I'll talk!
    -He was foolish
    -Yes
    -Yes
    -I don't know
    -Are you serious?
    Chapter 12 Pulled the Trigger
    -Then show compassion (he will shove your face to the table, also fine)
    -You have it easy
    -I've made mistakes
    -A free Iran
    -Anything is a weapon
    -I'm sure you'll tell me
    -I didn't realize
    -Okay, fine (this and the last will be to Hossein)
    -I had to hide
    After all that, load up Chapter 19 My Brother's Keeper (which has no dialogue choices) and when it ends, the achievement should unlock.

    I can't say for certain that this is exactly what you have to say, i.e. there may be more than one acceptable option at times, but this worked for me.

    GuinIceWizardFinally got it to unlock. I did a complete playthrough of the game, Chapters 1 - 19, following the above dialogue exactly. I also chose generally peaceful choices, saved Hossein and chose Nazar as the mole. No idea what helped and what didn't so best of luck!

    KittyLitter72This achievement can be obtained while staying completely defiant. As a general rule for all the decision based achievements: You don't need a complete run of the game, the relevant chapters suffice as long as you play them in successive order, though you might need to play chapters 16 to 19 without break to unlock them.
    This said, during my first playt-hrough I've been defiant in all interrogations at start. While going for the Hero achievement, replaying chapters 1, 5, 8, 16 (thug not necessary btw and saving the brother) this achievement popped nevertheless. Transitioning from 1 to 2, I quit before the decision to drink or reject the tea, just in case the game resets defiance / submission decisions at the start of chapter 2.

    Archer SpenseSort of similar experience to the others, excepting I did unlock the achievement and several others when I finished the game the first time. As I was cleaning up the rest of the achievements, my xbox gaslit me by saying I still didn't get this one. In other words, this one specific achievement had that microsoft server sync issue that used to be common and I haven't experienced in a long, long time. Either that, or this game didn't want to call me a coward. IDK.

    There are several interrogations with Hajj and in each one you need to do as you are told to keep him from losing his temper.

    Take a drink when you are told, open the folder when you are told, just generally be submissive to him and give him answers that won’t antagonise him. They are pretty obvious. You’ll know when you have this as the last one is at the very end of the am and wi pop along with the achievement for completing Chapter 19.

    Jdobemargh, cant get this unlocked. Re-did Chap 2,7, 12 and 19 and no unlock
    I'm told i'm cooperative but something else is blocking the detection.

    FullMoonBeaverThere is a walkthrough that will assist you if you're having trouble. Should unlock just fine. Failing that, it's worth checking Steam as there is a hide there too.
