We arrive in Hong Kong. Brady told us that Roger Carlyle is held at the Yeung Wo Nursing Home. We decide to stay at the Chinese YMCA. Li Wen-cheng tells us that the biggest library in town is the Hong Kong University, which was founded recently. He also knows there's a Royal Observatory. Quinn wrote a report on the train and files it with the local Catholic church to begin making its way back to the Order of the Sword of St. Jerome.

The investigators head to Yeung Wo Nursing Home, except for Anthony, who stays behind to guard our stuff. Brady told us that Roger was listed under the name Randolph Carter. Jack stays outside and chats with a nurse on break. Quinn talks his way in[1] saying that the church sent him to minister to wayward souls and gets Li Wen-Cheng and himself seen to Roger. Roger asks for the password. We wait at the suggestion of the nurse, and he whispers, "Hotep." The nurse says sometimes it's Anastasia or Nyarlathotep or other things at different times. We start interacting with Roger by ministering to him. He talks about the Red Pyramid, opening the door, the eye watching him, Erica Carlyle, and mentions the other members of the Carlyle Expedition. Quinn recites Mark 16:17, "And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues;" but mistranslates

"new tongues" as "bloody tongues" to judge his reaction.  He starts screaming.  Li Wen-cheng calms him down[2], but they restrain and drug him anyway.  We talk to the nurse a bit afterward.  She says no one else visits him.  He talks about the names mentioned quite often.
