The main part of the Ireland chapter takes place in a pub. Just order and drink 3 beers from the bartender to pop this trophy.
Social Work
Get to know all the locals on holiday.
In the pub we have to exhaust all dialogue options with all guests before Fitzgerald leaves. That also includes Liam Maguire (the kid outside of the pub). Just use every dialogue option while you try to use the hand buzzer on them. Some dialogues unlock new optons for different characters.

Impressing Nobody
Gatecrash a secret meeting.
Near the end of this chapter we go through a wall and end up in a cave with a set of stairs leading down and a hole straight across. Take the stairs to unlcok this trophy. Saving manually before doing so is recommended, just to be safe.

Chapter 6 - Paris III

Repeat Offender
Waste yet another opportunity to decorate.
At the excavation site we have to paint a plaster key. To do we call Nico so that she distracts a painter. Instead of painting the key right then, we must follow the painter down the stairs and then call Nico again. It should be enough to repeat this process twice, but to be safe you can do it three times. If you paint the key too early, you lock yourself out of this trophy.

Everyone's Buzzing
Try to prank as many people as you can.
When we visit the costume shop in Paris we'll automatically get a hand buzzer that we have to use on each person we meet. Some of them are missable, because ceratin locations can't be revisited. So it's recommended to select the hand buzzer from the inventory and use it to interact with every person we meet before actually talking to them, just to be safe. Especially in the hospital. Below you find a list of persons that are necessary for this trophy. All of them must be "pranked" in the same playthrough.
