This ain’t too complicated, you know the drill. Something slipped through somebody’s fingers and it’s your job to get it back. Got this choom, Doug – Denver Doug – a ripper. Recently did this patch job on a 6th street dickhole and when he took off Denver noticed a gallon of beta acid gone missing. Dunno wtf he uses it for but that 6er knows all kinds of shit can get cooked from it on the street. 1+1 = a dealer klepped it.
So Denver hired a guy, Booker Updike, to find the missing acid, then POOF – he’s a ghost. Last seen at the Dewdrop Inn in Arroyo. Head over there, get your hands on that beta, and if you got a minute, find out what happened to this Booker guy.

Once you have rented a room, head down the corridor and look for room 103, which is where Booker is. You can get in if you have 12 Technical Ability points or you will need to bribe the mechanic working on the vending machine nearby to open the door for you by choosing the following options (If you have 9 Body Ability Points you can also threaten them):
