- REGENCY HOTEL
- -------------
-
-
- Receptionist:The receptionist is a middle aged woman in a red dress who is
- looking decidedly agitated. She hammers away on her keyboard and stops
- occasionally to answer the phone. She is wearing a pair of large glasses.
-
- The receptionist looks up and says "Hello Sir. Welcome to the Regency Hotel.
- How can I help you."
- I'd like a room for tonight please.
- Well we haven't got many left and they are all quite expensive. David Crane,
- the singer, is staying here tonight you know.
- Oh yeah, I suppose he's got all the best rooms.
- Well Mr. Crane has the penthouse suite, naturally, but there is a vacant
- suite below that and it's quite luxurious.
- And how much would that cost just for tonight?
- I'm afraid that's 830 altogether, including tax. Will that be alright?
- Er, yes, I guess so.
- Well if you'd just like to sweep your cashcard through the scanner I can
- give you a room key.
- Right, thanks.
- The receptionist looks at you expectantly. Perhaps you should use your
- cashcard now.
-
- Hello again, if you still want that room just put your card through the
- scanner and I can give you your key.
- Thanks, I'll do that.
-
- Receptionist:The hotel receptionist continues to fiddle with things on her
- desk and occasionally she answers the phone. She looks slightly nervous.
-
- Hello again, what can I do for you now?
- Erm, can you tell me where my room is?
- Yes, it's on the ninth floor, just use the lift over there to get to your
- room.
- Okay, thanks.
- That's alright, just remember to use you room key to operate the controls in
- the lift.
-
- Oh, it's you again. What can I help you with.
- Oh, it's nothing. Don't worry about it.
- The receptionist returns to her work and tries to ignore you...
-
- Young man:The man has a yellow haircut which stands on end, a luminous green
- shirt and leather trousers and a jacket. He seems bored as if he's been
- stood here for hours.
-
- Hey, are you waiting here to see Crane too?
- Er, not really, I'm just staying here for a few nights. What do you know
- about Crane?
- There's nothin' we don't know about him. We've been waiting here for two
- days just to catch a glimpse of him.
- Are you sure he's in this hotel then?
- Oh yeah, he's got the best room in the hotel, the penthouse suite. It's
- supposed to have a pool!
- Well, I hope you see him.
- Yeah, catch you later.
-
- No luck yet. Crane still hasn't come down from his room.
- Oh right. Well I hope he does...
- Yeah, me too.
-
- Girl:Sat on the sofa is a girl wearing a purple dress made from a strange
- material that seems to change colour slightly as she moves. She sits staring
-
- out across the lobby. Occasionally she says something to the man stood next
- to her.
-
- Oh hello! We're waiting for David Crane. Don't you just love him?
- I...
- I've been to all his gigs an' I've got all his albums.
- Well actually...
- You know, I've even got his early stuff. He spat on me at a concert once. It
- was great!
- Um, yeah I'm sure it was. Catch you later...
- Oh, OK, see you then...
-
- Oh, hello again. I forgot to tell you about my signed photo that Crane sent
- me.
- That's OK. See you later. I'm busy.
-
- Light:The hotel lobby is lit by several of these small lamps. The yellow
- light doesn't quite reach the farthest corners of the room, giving it an old
- fashioned feel.
- :You can't use the light, it has no switch.

- attached to the wall with a brass fitting.
- :There doesn't seem to be a switch anywhere on the light.

- shines upwards onto the ceiling before being reflected around the room.
- :The light is controlled from behind the reception desk.

- outside the Regency hotel.
- :You can't find any way to switch the light off.
-
- Drain:A heavy looking cast iron drain cover with three vertical bars
- crossing it. The sound of distant water comes from within.
- :You brace yourself and attempt to lift the cover. It moves only slightly
- before you are forced to let go.
-
- Desk:The reception desk is made of solid wood. The fact that it is shows
- just how exclusive this hotel is. Behind the desk is a middle aged female
- receptionist.
- :You lean on the reception desk for a while.

-
- Terminal:The receptionist has a booking terminal in front of her. It has a

- back and disappears into the desk.
- :You can't reach, but the receptionist can book a room for you.
-
- Keyboard:This small keyboard is connected to the booking terminal on the
- desk. The receptionist occasionally taps something into it before carrying
- on with her work.
- :You lean over the desk and the receptionist coughs loudly. You decide not
- to bother.
-
- Lamp:This small angle-poise lamp has a square base. It is wired directly
- into the wall. It casts a circle of light across the top of the reception
- desk.
- :You twist the head of the light around before you notice the receptionist
- watching you.
-
- Lift doors:These large doors must be at least a foot thick and they are
- covered with studded brown leather, to match the rest of the lobby.
- :The doors will open if you call the lift.
-
- Pad:On the wall you see a square plate with the word "Lift" printed across
- it. Below is a button labelled "Call".

-
- Chair:The receptionist sits in this comfy looking swivel chair. Along with
- everything else it is made from leather and has brass fittings.

- :Try booking a room.
-
- Camera:A small security camera that tracks your movements around the street
- outside the hotel.
- :You can't reach.
-
- Plant:This weird plant is set into an artificial base. It seems that the
- only reason it looks real is because it is pumped full of water.
- :Use it? For what?
-
- Rail:The hand rail in the lift is made of solid brass. It's so shiny you can
- see your face in it.
- :You peer at the rail and you see your face expand as you get closer.
-
- Rail:The hand rail in the lift is made of brass. The lift travels very fast
- and it is there for you to grip in case you find the sensation of speed
- disturbing
- :You grip the hand rail tightly for a moment.
-
- Mirror:One wall of the lift is covered with a vast mirror. The lift looks
- alarmingly big because of this.
- :You study your reflection and notice that you are looking more crumpled than
- ever.
-
- Controls:The lift controls are completely blank apart from a thin slot. You
- are supposed to place your key in here
- :Try using your room key. If you haven't got one, then get one.

- Plant:A leafy green plant that sits on the reception desk. The leaves are
- thick and slightly furry to the touch.

-
- Sign:A small plastic sign that says "Reception" in black lettering on a gold
- background.
- :You pick up the sign and read it again.
-
- Table:A small octagonal table made from synthetic wood. It stands in the
- corner of the room next to the sofa.
- :There is no need to do that.
-
- Light:A gold light fixed to the wall of the lobby. A small wire comes from
- the side of the light and enters the wall underneath it. You assume this is
- the power lead.
- :You shouldn't mess about with the fittings.
-
- Light:A neon light that spreads light across the room. On the top you notice
- a tiny panel. This must be some kind of detector or switch.
- :You jab at the panel but nothing seems to happen.
-
- Bell:A brass bell with a small knob on the top. You are supposed to ring it
- when you need attention
- :You ding the bell loudly and the receptionist looks at you over her glasses.
-
- HOTEL LIFT:Everything in the lift from the wooden floor, to the brass
- fittings, to the huge mirror on the rear wall is highly polished. The lift
- positively gleams. A control panel is by the double doors.
-
- HOTEL LOBBY:The lobby is dominated by a curved wooden reception desk across
- one corner, behind which sits a receptionist. Most of the room, including
- the floor, is made of wood. Strangely, the consoles and monitors here don't
- look out of place.
-
- OUTSIDE HOTEL:The rain pours down in sheets outside the hotel. A sign above
- the doorway shines bleakly in the dim light and reads "Regency Hotel". The
- inside is visible and looks warm, dry and welcoming.
-
- Keycard:A small blue square of plastic with your room number printed on it.
- It says "Suite 4221". This is the second best suite in the whole hotel
- :Find somewhere to use it.
-
- Leaflet:A small printed leaflet that advertises the good points of the
- Regency Hotel. The word "Regency" is printed in embossed letters on the
- front
- :The leaflet looks totally uninteresting.
