Stuff is starting to slowly come together. Now we know what we have to do.
Go back down to the cab and head to S. Kedzie. You'll find out the door to the woman's house is locked. Use Gun1 on the door to break the lock and open the door. The inside of the bungalow smells of cheap perfume.
Examine the white piece of paper on the table. It's a slip of paper with three numbers on it: 33-24-36. Take it. There's also a brown piece of paper next to it with three more numbers: 25-03-45. Take it as well. Here's the thing, though: one of these combinations is real. The other is fake.
Open up the table drawer to find Key5 and the Diary. If you Open up the Diary, you'll find a bookmark. If you Examine the bookmark, you'll find the initials J.S. Joe Siegel, perhaps?
If you Examine the Diary, you'll find out there was a case of jealously from Siegel towards this woman. She's more interested in John Sternwood, a married man, and wants him to divorce his wife. This smells of an affair. Take the Diary.
Get back in the cab and go to Sherman. Go through the door across from the cab and head into the hallway to the right. You'll be in front of Dr. Brody's office. Use Key5 on the door and go in.
You'll be in the doctor's office. Take all of the medication bottles, then use Med.6 on the Capsules that are in your inventory. Use them on Self. You'll slowly regain your memories. On the third dose, you'll realize you're Ace Harding, Private Eye!
Use Gun1 on the file cabinet to open the top drawer. File1 is a patient's chart for Ace Harding. File2 in particular is a receipt saying that Martha Vickers, Joey Sigele's secretary, wants an order delivered to Joe's Bar. File3 is pretty useless. File4 shows what the medicines on the shelf do, which we probably should have read before taking all that medicine. Medrezine is a nerve antidote, diethanol trimene causes memory loss, sodium bicarbonate eases pain of overeating, chemopapain induces gleeful euphoria, sodium pentothal is a truth serum (and also used in death penalty injections) and bisodiumits are diethanol trimene's antidote, which requires more than one dose to take effect.
Go back to the entrance and take the stairs to the left. It's your office! But there's someone's shadow coming through the glass. Use Gun1 on the shadow, The shadow disappears. Unlock the door with Key5. When you enter the office, you'll find the guy laying there dead behind the desk. If you Examine him, though, you won't find anything unusual.
Open the desk to find an AmmoCase. Open it and take the bullets. Open the file cabinet to find three more Files. File5 is a letter that says you'll have to perform a simple kidnap job in order to get off the hook for whatever it is you're implicated in. Turns out it's the kidnap of Mrs. Sternwood. File6 finally puts a name on the woman whose you knocked out earlier: Sugar Shack. She hates Siegel for something he did to her. File7 says she's doing five years for blackmailing an alderman. Take the Files.
You're done here, so head back outside to the cab.
