The Black Mirror Hints
How can I get the doctor to help me develop my photos?
1 of 8: First, Samuel will have to learn that Dr. Hermann can develop photos in the morgue.
2 of 8: The way to do that is to examine an object in the morgue that has to do with photo development.
3 of 8: Click on the canisters that are under the big basins near the exit, then talk to Dr. Hermann about your film.
4 of 8: Before he can help you, he'll need a new bottle of toner. He says Murray has some, so go ask him about it in the Willow Creek pawn shop.
5 of 8: Return to Dr. Hermann with the toner to get him to agree to develop your film.
6 of 8: He won't be able to develop it right away, though. When it's ready may vary according to how soon you give him the photos. Keep trying every now and then until you get them.
7 of 8: NOTE: You have to talk to Dr. Hermann at least once about the photos before they're ready, then travel elsewhere and come back. If you try that and it doesn't work, then there's more you need to do in the Willow Creek and Hermann's House areas first.
8 of 8: When the photos are done, ask the doctor about them, then pick them up from the tray that is over on the basins. Samuel will put them in the back of William's diary, where you can view them from now on.
