I can't remember exactly but I think you might need to go deduce some things in the office before you can continue.
hey, i was having fun but the deductions are really killing me now. i give up since at this point i am simply doing every combinations of every item and location and deduction and failing.
i tried to burn my dad's corpse and blew up myself with the pod tubes and matches. what am i supposed to deduce/find/combine, etc?
(edited out some spoilers)
hmmmm, i just get the "can't make deductions" from steve when i combine the book, the map in irene's office. and all combinations of the below clues and bag items.
x Behind Dad’s desk is a world map
x The entrance to Dad’s real office is somewhere behind his desk in LotF
-Ashokavadana
-Laser Pointer
in dad's office the map and book get me "I couldn't find a way to use that there."
