53rd Street Walkthrough Part 6

Head back to Lauren's apartment again. You need to use the phone book to look up Columbia University. But before you call the university you also need to connect two clues in your notebook. Open your notebook and click on the name Sam and the name John Durkin. Lauren will come to the conclusion that Sam's last name is Durkin.

Once you have the name Sam Durkin in your notebook you can call Columbia University and get some information from him. But, he will challenge you to see if you really knew his mother. The question he asks is what apartment did she live in. Now in the conversations with Mavis you should already have heard her say that 'D' is written on her door. It should also have been mentioned in the conversations with both Mavis and Mrs. Sherman that she lived on the 3rd floor. That would mean she lived in apartment 3D.

The key point that you will learn from Sam is that he gave her a Mother's Day gift, but he won't say more than that. Luckily, that is all the information you need.
