Quests from The Panic Room: House of Secrets

Divination in the dark

Jack: I suggest turn the light off while taking the pieces, so no one could look what he gets. Three, two, one. Go!

Task: Go through the living room in "night" mode.

Jim: Jack, this idea has not an ounce of common sense. All the surprises are put closer to the bottom. If none of us got X-ray vision, then no one will be able to see that he takes.

Jack: Shhh, you grumpy! Don't spoil the fun. No more than one piece in hand, otherwise... We'll shoot you. Under martial law. Join the queue.

Bill: Leave me the last piece - let the person in front of me have a choice. The old man should not take the alternative away from the young.

You hear the sound of breaking glass. Jim turns the switch - bright lights dazzle everyone in the room.

Bill: Sorry, girl. Clumsy me.

Isami: Do not worry, Bill. We've already poured all the juice so just a few drops have spilled.

Scarlet stain slowly fades on the white cloth of the tablecloth.

Jenny: This color... It's just like Alice's dress. She in fact has a birthday today. How could we forget?

Jack: Indeed, how could we forget about that date? Halloween. Ha. God marks the rascal. It is a pity she's not with us today, 'cause I wouldn't let her go away without a gift. Silverware Is a suitable dress, don't you think? For example, a fork in the ribs? With a bow, of course.

Bill: Lynching is not an option, Jack. Not today. Never.

Jim sponges the spilled liquid with cloth.

Jim: Jack, do you know that the Irish pound means ?

Not very diplomatic, but it's enough to distract Jack.

Jack: It, my brother, predicts to the fact that you'll lose yourself into drinking in an Irish pub. I guarantee you that. You will have a practice in a Dublin suburb, and in the evenings after a glass of something intoxicating you'll tell the stories of how you'd got out of the house.

Bill: There is some truth in this. You have seen and handled a lot of difficult cases here so outside you won't get rid of patients. Let's see what I have here. Peas... What does it mean?

Jenny: You cannot create a family in the coming year.

Bill: What a pity, I had so many plans! Even prepared an ironed aloha shirt to take sunbaths with a young wife somewhere on the tropical islands…

You completed Jack's task and received some points of freedom and some tokens.

Bill: Your barmbrack has mistaken, Jenny. I've already found a family. Here in the house.
