When you click on your characters name do you get a drop down. Also and sorry for this, but if you are using an old save, some of the triggers may not have been in the game when you first started. That could be your issue. Sorry whole game is still a work in progress.
yes I get the drop down, and she can smile and bend over. But doing it at the basement does not trigger anything. Before knocking, after knocking… no difference.
Ah, there is one more skill you need, you can get that by doing the waitress serve guest scenes more. You need the flash skill, to get their attention.
