The Ties That Bind/Transcript

Frank: , I can't believe Spangler told us he helped an alien escape! As if we'd ever believe that crazy talk!

Frank: And now he wants to meet him in some sort of festival in the middle of the desert?

Frank: I checked, it's a gathering of weirdos who get their kicks from drinking beer and then burning a big statue, I know, , it makes zero sense. But you know, kids these days...

Frank: Makes you wonder, what is Spangler really up to? Why would he go to a place like that? And why does he need you? Something doesn't seem right.

Frank: I agree, . I don't believe in aliens either, but i love a good mystery. Let's go to that festival!

At the Festival...

Frank: What the hell is up with this place, ? Looks like those hippies just passed the ultimate acid test!

Frank: And of course they didn't clean up after themselves when they left! The place is a mess!

Frank: I really don't get why Spangler wanted us to come here. Can you have a look around and see if you can find him?

Chapter 1
Investigate "Festival Grounds".

Frank: Oh come on, can't we visit a place without tripping over a dead body?

Frank: What are you saying, ? Those medals... that mustache! You think it's Colonel Spangler?

Frank: No, that's impossible! We've known Spangler for ages, he's always been around! And now you're telling me he's dead? I just can't believe it!

Frank: Sure, i didn't like the guy, but he didn't deserve to end up burnt to a crisp like this, it's so undignified!

Frank: Why did he want us to come here? Did he know he was in danger? You're right, , to know what we're up against, we need to solve his murder!

Frank: Hopefully this video camera you just picked up will give us a visual on what happened here, You'll just have to unlock it first!

Frank: And you're right, this footprint is fresh and it's facing away from the murder, as if our killer fled the crime scene! Can you run it through the database, ?

Frank: I agree, there was definitely something written on that flyer. But don't expect me to work on that piece, you're the one with magic skills.

Frank: You're right, , i should behave. The colonel's been killed for some mysterious reason and we need to solve this!

Examine Video Camera.

Frank: On a roll, ! You unlocked the video camera you found near Spangler's body!

Frank: Oh wait, you're right, there's a video running and Spangler's in it! We'd better watch it.

Spangler's Video...

Spangler:  , if you're seeing this, it means that i'm dead, i knew it was a risk when i decided to help the alien escape!

Spangler: But i needed to keep them from turning this poor alien into a lab expirement!

Spangler: I know we didn't always see eye to eye, but i respect you,  . Please, you need to finish what i started! You must protect the alien!

Spangler: Go to the oasis, and everything will become clear. But remember, whoever killed me will likely come after you, too! Be careful,  !
