According to the safety protocol, the air inside the central lab unit is highly toxic, and entering requires a hazmat suit. However, the air recycling system on the control platform outside the lab can temporarily clear the toxins.

A clipboard with the lab's safety protocol. To prevent a disastrous outbreak, a kill switch has been installed. One push of a key, and the virus instantly overheats and dies. However, the laptop that controls the kill switch requires an access dongle, and the scientist who holds this dongle has left a note that reads "gone to church."

According to staff, Caruso keeps a crate of VHS tapes from his childhood somewhere in the observatory. Apparently, he used to watch them on the projector in the observatory but stopped after his mental breakdown.

A joint belonging to the apartment's bohemian owner. Potent stuff, it's useful to cause drowsiness and increased appetite.

An antique cannonball.

According to staff, Caruso suffered a mental breakdown last year and was briefly admitted. He describes what can only be classified as poltergeist activity caused by his late mother, and he was found unconscious in Isabella's old bedroom.

A master key to Sapienza's town church.

Hair and skin cells belonging to Francesca De Santis. Caruso appears to be collecting DNA material on his closest allies as some kind of security policy. No doubt De Santis would like to know about this.

An expired can of spaghetti sauce. Looks like it was bought while Isabella Caruso was still alive. It appears the legend of her family recipe is somewhat exaggerated.

A golf ball that detonates upon contact.

A fresh bouquet of flowers. The recipient is Silvio Caruso.

A key to a ICA safe house somewhere in town.

According to staff, the antique gramophone player in the great dining hall belonged to Caruso's mother, Isabella. Like all her other possessions, Caruso keeps them untouched and unsullied.

A key. Grants access to all rooms in the mansion.

A journal from a mental institution in Naples where Silvio Caruso was briefly admitted last year. According to his statement, Caruso found his mother's favorite record playing in the empty dining hall and then saw her chair lift move by itself. Upon hearing the service bell ring in Isabella's old bedroom, Caruso entered alone and was later found unconscious by his staff. He claims to have no recollection of what he witnessed inside.

A note to Francesca De Santis from her lover, Roberto Vargas. The two plan to meet for a romantic rendezvous soon after Vargas' golf lesson with Caruso.

A note with a combination code. It likely opens the safe in the attic. Whatever Caruso wants to conceal is of interest to us.

According to the scientist in the confession booth, an accident at the Ether lab has claimed the life of a male scientist. His body is currently stored at the town morgue. The female scientist, who appears to be somehow responsible for the accident, plans to visit the morgue to pay her respects.

According to the Ether security guards, Francesca De Santis is searching for the combination code to Caruso's safe, which is located in the attic. She believes Caruso has written the code down and keeps it somewhere near. If Ether is concerned about the content, then it is probably worth investigating.

According to the flower deliveryman, today is the anniversary of Isabella Caruso's death, and Silvio Caruso has ordered a fresh bouquet of flowers for her grave. Judging from the damage, however, the flower truck isn't going anywhere.

The kitchen staff ring the dinner bell to notify Silvio Caruso that his meals are being served.

The Ether field lab must be located below ground. The cliffs around here riddled with natural caves, so the lab likely has multiple access points. All of which are heavily guarded, of course.

It appears Francesca De Santis is spying on Silvio Caruso on behalf of their mutual employer, the Ether Corporation. Ether clearly doesn't trust Caruso, especially when it comes to ownership of the DNA-specific virus. De Santis has been instructed to keep an eye on the bioengineer and potentially decommission him, and carry on in his place, if the need arises.

Apparently, Francesca De Santis is having a love affair with Roberto Vargas, a former golf pro who works as Silvio Caruso's private coach. Although Vargas is a notorious ladies' man, it appears De Santis is the one holding back.

Apparently, Villa Caruso's chef has hired a new kitchen hand by staff recommendation, and the two are yet to meet. According to our research, the chef has also been trying for some time to replicate Isabella Caruso's famous home cooking but has so far been unsuccessful.

According to the hairdresser, Sal Falcone, a private investigator from Milan, is in town to meet Francesca De Santis. This Falcone character has apparently performed services for Silvio Caruso in the past. Whatever they were, the case appears to have take him all around the country. Question is, does Falcone still work for Caruso, or does De Santis have an agenda of her own?

According to Dr. Lafayette's phone call, Ether has hired the world-renowned psychologist to treat Silvio Caruso. No doubt they are concerned about the bioengineer's mental health. The session will take place in private and furthermore, our records show that Caruso and Lafayette have not previously met.

The virus is not yet operational. The team appears to have successfully encoded the prototype with rat DNA, rendering the virus harmless to all but its target. However, they still have trouble sustaining the virus outside a Petri dish environment for prolonged periods of time.

An early prototype of Caruso's virus. Apparently encoded with Francesca De Santis' DNA. Likely the sample cannot survive for long outside a sealed environment, but the DNA targeting works.
