 > Can you please check what the original interpreter is doing?
 > Also that's not just the follow-up dialog when you bring coffee, but
 it's like the 30th dialog box. Please also include which script you are
 posting from.

 I thought I had updated the description before I went to bed, but I must
 have forgot to press the save button. I hope it's a little clearer now?

 The problem is that even if the problem happens with the original, I
 probably couldn't reproduce it. First I had a savegame outside the door
 where it seemed to happen every time when I tried it on my phone. Then I
 moved it to my computer for debugging, and found that it only happened
 ''some'' of the time, so it presumably depends on hitting a very specific
 window in time. It may be a wide window, but it still probably only
 happened because I waited for the intro to run its course, rather than
 skipping it.

 That's why I made the second, attached savegame during the cutscene
 instead. But I assume that's not compatible with the original interpreter.

 I also assumed that this could be a pretty nightmarish thing to fix, if
 it's a script shortcoming. But I've been surprised in the past by what
 could be fixed so I figured I'd better write a bug report anyway.
