Scene 2, Outside:

• Chalk Message on left: Jeremy
• Window above prisoners, office cork board: Jason, Robert, Jimmy, Arthur, Daniel, Racketeering, Murder, Kidnapping, Homicide
• Leftmost inmate: Over
• Scarred inmate: Dug, Under,
• Rightmost inmate: Gun
• Guard: Utley, Gun
• Drainpipe: Drainpipe, Saw Blade
• Custodian at fence: Pliers, Wire Cutters, Henry, Wakefield

Hints:

• According to the map, this floor has 5 cells, but we only see 3 of them.
• The custodian outside is holding pliers, but there’s 2 empty spaces in the Sternwall toolkit he’s holding. It looks to be a similar shape to a wire cutter or pliers. Where’d it go?
• Looking at the outside of the building, it appears that every cell has a barred window. If we can’t see a window in the cell, it must be covered by a poster or something similar
• The window with the sawn through bars must be the one the escaped prisoner had
• The escaped prisoner, of course, isn’t here, so we don’t have a face to put his name to
• To escape, the missing convict needed three tools and three people needed to bring them to him
• One of the inmates outside has a note telling him to forget “what you think you heard.”’ Has anyone reported hearing worrying sounds?
• The cell poster has a group of numbered colored drowning and then a bunch of symbols with exactly the same color. We could turn a line of numbers into colors then symbols, if we only had a number
• The list of prisoners in the office gives first names to faces, crimes, and prison sentence lengths.
• If we can nail down the location of the prisoners and get one of their names, we can use the cell name list to name the other 4.
• The leftmost prisoner says he’ll be out in a year, which means he isn’t in prison for life.
• The journal says that Kempton likely cheats at gambling. He likely has some sort of rigged game of chance on his person or in his belongings
• Common sense check: a prison guard, no matter how trusting, is not going to bring an inmate a saw blade. He might bring something a little safer, though
• We just heard about the Harmony Foundation, so it’s funny that a book donated by them shows up in a cell.
• The redhead prisoner is neighbors with Utley, the prisoner being mocked by the guard outside
• The Message scroll is throwing you a massive bone – the secret message is six numbers long.
• The cell on the left and the middle have matching teacups. It’s nice to think that they’re sharing, but it might be quid pro quo
• The book the Harmony foundation sent isn’t in the best shape; it’s spine is practically falling off
