While retrieving the blocks, Crane overhears the sounds of infected coming from the basement and confronts Rupert. Crane learns Rupert's wife, Jasmine, has turned and is being kept trapped in the basement as Rupert is unable to kill her. He asks Crane to put his wife out of her misery, initiating the Dungeon side-quest.
Crane:"Hey there, bud. What's your name?" Kadim:"Kadim." Crane:"Kadim, I like that name." Kadim:"I have a secret." Crane:"Really? So do I." Kadim:"What's your secret?" Crane:"I'm a GRE agent. What've you got?" Kadim:"Can you get my blocks for me?" Crane:"That's not really a secret." Kadim:"But some of them are downstairs... near the basement. And Mr. Rupert said we're not ever to go near the basement. Not EVER. But I went down there, just to see... ...and I heard a scary sound, and I kind of dropped my blocks. They're kind of... all over. Could you get them back for me?" Crane:"That's a tall order. But I'll give it a shot."

Who was that again?" Crane:"You're secret is safe, Kadim. But I'm going to talk to Rupert about those noises in the basement. I heard them too."
