Wow. Ok. You should be moving forward then. Top of mind ideas:
- go to a previous save around the 28% mark (or sometime before this quest task appears on your list) and either look to advance another quest line(more on that in a minute)
- Let that one stew for a bit while looking to advance another quest line
I don't know if working on another quest line will snap this one back into shape or not. You could try to find another quest line by:
Going in the library during "normal hours" and follow
APoc1's usually correct advice: look for a strange book on one of the clickable book shelves. (If you haven't done so yet). If you have then - do the following until another quest line pops:
- Go to bed.
- When you wake up, click on everything in every room in your home.
- Click on every door of every house you have access to.
- Click on every location on the map (motel, estate, bridge, homes, apt building, warehouse, Fox Club, bar, hospital, park, mall, diner, store, school, etc).
- Click on every door in the school, the store, the diner, the mall.
- Click on every tree, window, door, etc in Priscilla's backyard.
- Click on every NPC standing, sitting, whatever in every scene at every time frame of the day.
- And then go to bed, again.
- Repeat.
I would hate you to have to start over (I assume you're over 50 game days in?)
