The Black Mirror Hints
How can I prove my identity to the caretaker?
1 of 5: Try showing him the few inventory items that Samuel saw fit to bring to Wales.
2 of 5: NOTE: If he gets impatient and takes off before you show him the right thing, you can ring the doorbell and try again.
3 of 5: How about the wallet? It's bound to have an ID card in it somewhere.
4 of 5: But the caretaker just interprets your offering him the wallet as an attempt to bribe him. Do you have anything that has the Gordon name printed on it?
5 of 5: How about William Gordon's mourning-card? It doesn't exactly prove that you're Samuel Gordon, but it's something "Gordon-ish", at least. (And it's about time that thing was useful for something!)
