As the game unfolds, you work out that you are in the studio for the filming of a soapie. You play the part of Pauline's doctor, Doctor Langridge. Pauline (played by Justine) is in her hospital bed and needs a procedure, but she can't afford it. Pauline's mother is Gina (played by Lane), but she can't afford it either. Pauline's father is eventually revealed to be Leopold Craverly. He can afford it, but the miserly old bugger won't pay for Pauline's procedure until he finds out that Pauline is actually his daughter. Got all that? Now, down to business.
