Rata Mall - Cafe - Phase 4 Locked

[ambic]

Pull meathook X

The shelves lift up revealing a secret door at the back of the freezer

The door has a security panel, awaiting a 4 digit pin, with a single Red Skull lit up.

Now 2 Red skulls[/img]

[RubberDuck]

Examine Secret Door

[ambic]

Pressing till buttons does nothing

The door is very sealed.

[RubberDuck]

Examine raised shelf

[ambic]

Its in the celing. Inaccessible

[RubberDuck]

stand clear off the shelves in case it closes

pull meat hook Q followed by Z

[ambic]

They do nothing

[ambic]

There is a detail I forgot to add. There is a wok lying on the floor next to the counter.

[RubberDuck]

Fill kettle with water

Use water with coffee maker

turn coffee maker on

look for a coffee mug

[ambic]

I couldnt be so cruel as to not have a single mug, in a cafe, with coffee available.

You have a nice drink of coffee, no milk (probably wise, given the time without power - any milk would be... interesting colours by now)

Edit: Yeah, nah, I didnt have any cups in the cafe - just cutlery. Smart of me no? Anyway you have a mug. It's useless due to the same reason I fail at Scattegories. I hadnt planned a use for it, but you can dream up something...

Me: Name things found in a cafe - Coke Machine, Chairs, Tables, Cutlery, Frozen Vegetables, Coffee Machine, Freezers with secret doors and pin codes
You: What about cups?
Me: F***
Anyways you could have used the Wok

[RubberDuck]

I can always use the mug with my soluble Aspirin; I have water in the kettle now, so something to dissolve them in. Makes me a tad more useful in the

White Mage

department.
Beats trying to cure someone with a can of Aspirin+Cola.

Refill kettle with water

[RubberDuck]

This might not work given Terry's current state of Undeath.. but just to see how the flavor plays out.

Diagnose BM (Terry)

Hoping to check pupils, heart rate, breathing, and look for injuries etc..

Wondering if i can medically monitor players from a distance, or whether i can give them a medical inspection which might give me clues about when to use bandages or aspirin, or any other medical items i might find.

[ambic]

Terry seems clinically dead.

[RubberDuck]

Use water+mug, add an aspirin

Drink Aspirin

[Battle Mage]

what are you doing? headache?

I assume Porochaz is wielding a knife now.

pick up wok

better than nothing

examine my stick for inscription

[RubberDuck]

Apparently, I'm the only Dr on the planet who doesn't know how or what aspirin does when taken and I have to try using it to see what happens.

So either it works and does something positive.

Or it's a red herring, a placebo item that actually does nothing short of being a cosmetic item for show and tell.

Or I can make something fizz in a chemical reaction to solve a puzzle.

I know in real life aspirin is also used as a blood thinner for people with heart conditions, but massively increases their risk of bleeding out if they have a stroke.
Whether Ambic did that much research on the item or not is unknown (to me)

[RubberDuck]

Enter code: "BREW" 2 7 3 9

[ambic]

Dr Higgs walks into the freezer, types in 2739, and watches a red skull get added to the display unit

[RubberDuck]

Dang nabbit!

Open microwave

[Battle Mage]

Enter code: "BEER" 2 3 3 7

[ambic]

The microwave is empty

Battle Mage heads into the door: 2337 didnt work. One more red skull

[RubberDuck]

<Thinking out loud> Could be "GROG", or the 1234 shown is the actual answer, but I'm concerned the presence of the skulls instead of

✓

or

x

Might mean the door is potentially lethal upon lockout...

Q X Z

doesn't appear to follow a standard logical pattern.

I find it a bit strange these aren't labelled in order like the following:

X, Y, Z
1, 2, 3
A, B, C

Examine the Q X Z labels for the meathooks

[ambic]

They are labelled Q, X and Z. Funny that

[RubberDuck]

Just needs the J to become J Q X Z, highest scoring letters

AND

most annoying to play in Scrabble.

[ambic]

The most commonly played word in scrabble has a Q in it... its not that bad
