Seeking Out Future Luke/To Where Future Luke Awaits After asking at the hotel, we found our way to the casino. It's a new building, unsuitably large for central London, located far down Flatstone Street. It does seem to be the place we're supposed to meet, but I'm having trouble believing we're about to come face-to-face with Luke's future counterpart. It seems the only way to quell this doubt is to head inside. After asking in the hotel, we learned that the casino is located at the far end of Flatstone Street. It is a new building, unsuitably large for central London. It does seem to be the place we're supposed to go, but will we really meet Future Luke there? There's only one way to find out...
Future London's Plight/Future London According to Future Luke, this London is under the command of my future self. It seems I've become obsessed with completing a time machine and have been kidnapping scientists from the past, which is to say, my present. If these allegations are true, then stopping my future self is my duty as a true gentleman. According to Future Luke, this London is under the command of my future self. It seems I've become obsessed with developing a time machine, and have been kidnapping scientists from the past - that is, our present. If these allegations are true, then stopping my future self is my duty as an English gentleman.
To the Arcade Restaurant/To the Restaurant in the Arcade In an unfortunate turn of events, the Family attacked us on our way out of the casino. It appears one of their officers thought I was impersonating his superior. Perhaps in the 10 years that have passed, my appearance has changed only a bit. Following future Luke's lead, we have decided to head for the restaurant we visited earlier in the arcade. We ran into a spot of trouble as we were leaving the casino, and were attacked by the Family. One of the gangsters mistook me for his boss and then took offence at my appearance. I suppose my future self, even 10 years older, is still me, so it is not unthinkable that someone might confuse us. Following Future Luke's lead, we have now decided to head for the restaurant in the arcade.
The Towering Pagoda/The Base in the Towering Pagoda It appears that my future self has set up his base in Chinatown, within a structure known as the Towering Pagoda. What I've heard suggests the prime minister is being kept there, as well as the scientists who were kidnapped. We'll need a plan before approaching the enemy base. It appears that my future self has set up his base in the Towering Pagoda, located in an area called Chinatown. This may well be where the prime minister is being kept, along with the scientists who were kidnapped. We'll need a plan before approaching the enemy base.
Heading to Chinatown/First, to Chinatown After some discussion, future Luke decided to split off from us in order to find a way into the Towering Pagoda, leaving us to find our way to Chinatown alone. It seems we need to ascend some stairs that can be found on Flatstone Street halfway to the casino. We must be careful that we aren't spotted by the Family. Future Luke has gone off on his own, but Shipley told us how to get to the Chinatown area. It seems we need to ascend some steps somewhere on Flatstone Street, halfway to the casino. We must be careful and make sure we aren't spotted by the Family.
A True Gentleman/The Hat and the Vow Who on earth could that woman be? She's like a ghost, haunting me ever since we came to this London. When I received this hat, it was then that I realized how important is was to be a true gentleman. Has my future self completely forgotten that? No, perhaps it's as future Luke said. Perhaps I really did become obsessed with the idea of changing the past. That woman... Who could she be? She's like a ghost that's been haunting me ever since we came to this London. Has my future self really forgotten the vow I made the day she gave me this hat? I've striven to be the gentleman she believed me to be, but what about him? Perhaps it is as Future Luke said - I became obsessed with turning back time, back to the time of that experiment...

The Statue and the Lighthouse London appears to have changed significantly over the last 10 years. None of its sights are familiar to me anymore. Has the statue of a gentleman and a young always been there? One thing is for certain--the lighthouse alongside the Thames is a recent addition. London appears to have changed significantly over the last 10 years. None of its sights are familiar to me any more... Has the statue of the gentleman and the young boy always been there? One thing is certain, though - the big lighthouse overlooking the Thames is a recent addition.
White Coats and Wet Clothes/White Coats and Wet Feet We encountered a man in a white coat standing on top of a bridge. When we asked him for directions, however, he promptly ran away, seemingly mistaking me for the boss of the Family. That reminds me--we saw another man in white on the way to the restaurant, and his shoes and trousers were all wet. I'm having trouble understanding why they'd run around like that in wet clothes. We encountered a man in a white lab coat standing on the iron bridge. When we asked him for directions, however, he promptly ran away, apparently mistaking me for the boss of the Family. That's the second man we've seen in a lab coat and, oddly, both had wet shoes and trousers. What possible reason could there be for going about in damp clothing?
Chinatown Guards/Guards at the Chinatown Gate The two chaps guarding the gate bore a striking resemblance to Inspector Chelmey and Constable Barton, which reminded me that the two police officers were at the time-machine demonstration as well. I decided we ought to return to our time in order to have a word with the inspector. The two chaps guarding the gate bore a striking resemblance to Inspector Chelmey and Constable Barton, which reminded me that they had also been at the time machine presentation. I do wonder why they were invited to such a gathering of luminaries. I think we should return to our own time and have a word with the inspector.
The Mimicking Parrot/The Parrot On the way back to the clock shop, we met a fellow named Graham who was rather upset that his cuff links had been stolen by a mischievous parrot. Though we did have business to attend to, I felt it was my duty as a gentleman to assist the man with his problem. Thanks to the efforts of both Lukes, we were able to befriend the parrot, which turns out to be an excellent mimic. On the way back to the clock shop we encountered a fellow named Graham, who was rather upset because his cufflinks had been stolen by a mischievous parrot. Naturally, no English gentleman could leave someone in such a pickle. Thanks to the efforts of both Lukes, we were able to befriend the parrot the parrot and recover the cufflinks.
Back to Our Time It seems the great clock in Cogg's shop functions as a portal to a wormhole, and that Cogg will help us return to our own time. Though I must admit, given the way I burst into their shop, it's no wonder the owners are resentful toward my future self. It seems the purpose of the big clock in Cogg's shop is to activate a wormhole. It's no wonder he and Spring are resentful towards my future self, given the way his band of thugs burst into their shop. Anyway, Cogg says he can help us return to our own time.
Our First Stop: My Office The London that greets us when we leave the clock shop is the familiar old London we originally left. Now's not the time for nostalgia, though. I have to drop by my office before going to meet Inspector Chelmey. The London that greeted us when we exited the clock shop is the familiar old London that we originally left. Now is not the time for nostalgia, however, I have to drop by my office before going to meet Inspector Chelmey.
