The Moment of Silence Hints

Where can I find some of the cocktail drugs?

  • 1 of 15: Why not try looking in a cocktail?
  • 2 of 15: Check out the bar in the back of the recreation area.
  • 3 of 15: On the end of the bar opposite Dr. Jenkins' favorite spot is a cocktail tray that you can get a close-up of.
  • 4 of 15: Do so and then click on the takeable cocktail.
  • 5 of 15: However, you can't just pour the whole cocktail into Jenkins' coffee cup, or he'd know something was wrong. You need to isolate the drug from the cocktail.
  • 6 of 15: Fortunately, the drug is added to cocktails in the form of dissolvable pill capsules, and the ones in the cocktail you took haven't quite dissolved yet (right-click on the cocktail in inventory to verify this).
  • 7 of 15: The equipment you need for extracting those capsules is in your cabin.
  • 8 of 15: Run all the way back to cabin 28 and check out the little table and the washing facility.
  • 9 of 15: Things can be set on the table, and the washing facility has a cup and a towel. Give you any ideas?
  • 10 of 15: You want to filter or strain the drug capsules out of the cocktail, but you don't have an actual filter or strainer device.
  • 11 of 15: But you do have a towel!
  • 12 of 15: SIDE NOTE: If you right-click on the towel in inventory, Peter will make some comment about the connection between space and towels. A reference to the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, perhaps?
  • 13 of 15: After getting the towel and toothbrush glass, get a close-up of the small table and click the toothbrush glass on it to set it down.
  • 14 of 15: Then put your makeshift strainer (the towel) over the glass by clicking it on the glass.
  • 15 of 15: Now click the cocktail on the towel-and-glass combo to strain it through the towel, leaving the partially dissolved capsules on top for you to take.
