Would you like to get on? >> sure Please answer yes or no.> yes You start to change lanes, but you notice that the ramp is out of service today -- some sort of maintenance work.

Would you like to stop here? >> yes You pull into the parking lot and hop out. Loungent Technologies parking lot You are at the employees' entrance to the Loungent Technologies building. There is a slot by the door, next to a sign reading "INSERT ID CARD HERE".

Loungent Technologies You are standing in a hallway near the back entrance to Loungent Technologies. The hallway leads north to the reception area and south to the parking lot, while a door marked "MATTHEW BOWMAN" lies to the west. There is a cubicle here; it is marked simply "HADLEY". >w You can't, since Bowman's door is in the way. >open door [Which do you mean, the back door or Bowman's door?] >bowman's You open Bowman's door. >w Bowman's office Unless you miss your guess, this office is a converted supply closet. The exit is east. On Bowman's desk is a laptop computer. >x laptop It's a Dell Inspiron 7000. Suh-weet! >turn it on Bad idea.

You try to make a break for it, but Bowman calls for security and they wrestle you to the ground before you can make it back to the car. [Press a key to continue.] The anchorman chuckles. "And now, on the lighter side of the news -- you've heard about the burglar who broke into a home and started stealing the family's valuables, only to get so worn out from the exertion that he fell asleep and was caught when the homeowners returned? Here's one to top that: a burglar broke into an East Las Mesas home, killed the owner and stashed his body under the bed, put his possessions in the trunk of his car -- and then fell asleep, woke up the next morning, went to his victim's office and tried to do the victim's job! An insanity defense is likely. And now here with the weather is Jay Doubleday -- or is it?" *** You have been sentenced to life imprisonment *** Would you like to RESTART, RESTORE a saved game or QUIT? > restart The phone rings.
