Let's Play Technobabylon Part 07 - Puzzles With Fava Beans And a Nice Chianti
Regis' mystery helper turns out to be a colleague from his past, Nina: an unscrupulous scientist with big plans. She and her Illuminati clique all want Central out of the way, and one of them sheds some light on Central's suspicious behavior. However, the dinner party gets interrupted by a suicide bombing - and only those present knew about the meeting. With Regis as the only outside party, it falls to him to investigate and find the mole, in exchange for the whereabouts of the Mindjacker. The bomber didn't leave much to work with, so we start with their disguise and go from there.
