The Black Mirror Hints
The doctor found me and locked me in the cell! How do I escape?
1 of 9: James was able to escape from this very cell. If you knew how he did it, you could probably use the same method.
2 of 9: If you don't know what that way was yet, you'll need to talk to someone who does.
3 of 9: Ralph's cell is right next door to James', and Ralph said before that he was James' friend. Maybe they had some way of talking to each other while in their cells without the guards knowing.
4 of 9: Search around on the wall adjacent to Ralph's cell.
5 of 9: If there was some method of communication, James would very likely have hidden it.
6 of 9: Check out the picture of an eye that's on the wall near some other sketches.
7 of 9: Right-click on it to remove it and find a *real* eye!
8 of 9: That's Ralph. Talk to him.
9 of 9: When you ask him about "escape", he'll tell you about a hole under the bed. You can use it to escape the sanitorium after you talk to Ralph about James and Robert.
