Walkthrough

You're probably going to need some Stealth skill and Detection to catch the thief sneaking to the supply locker. For characters with low Stealth and Perception a Bear Trap can also be used, set it just inside the door to the room and wait, eventually Jared will walk into the trap where you can then talk to him.

Simply wait for the thief in Stealth Mode or somewhere out of sight , he'll eventually sneak in if he doesn't see you. Turns out the thief is Jared, who has become addicted to painkillers. Once he's caught red-handed, you can persuade Doc (no skill required) to call Captain Herve and have him arrested, or let Doc help him with his addiction. You can also offer Jared to accept money in exchange for keeping silence. He will pay you thirty charons or fifty charons if you pass the Intimidation skill check (50 effective skill). Even if you accepted the bribe, you can still complete the quest by breaking your promise and tell the Doc about Jared.

Trivia

  • After catching the med thief in the act, the player calls out: "Hold it right there, criminal scum!" It is potentially a reference to the video game The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (2006) where at one point a guard calls out: "Stop right there, criminal scum!"
