After performing the seance with Amy, you’ll be led to an abandoned school. Once you make your way down the hall, you’ll find a door blocked by a golden statue holding out its hands.

From the statue door, head right and enter the double doors. In this new area, take a right at the door with the keycard reader and head around the corner from the vending machine. Here, you’ll find a keycard inside the duffel bag on the bench.

Take the Office Keycard back to the door with the keycard reader and use the item to unlock the door. In this room, take a left and head towards the toolbox on the desk. The code for the toolbox is 001. You’ll only be able to take the screwdriver since the pliers are broken.

Use the screwdriver on the vent behind the toolbox, near the brown cabinets. Follow the path and head into the boys’ locker room. In the locker room, head straight to the end of the hall, then crouch through the hole in the wall on the left.

Use the screwdriver here to open the drain on the floor and obtain the two quarters. Once you make your way to the exit, an enemy will appear. Use the lockers to hide from the enemy’s spotlight, then make a break for the exit once it’s safe.

Head back to the area with the duffel bag where you obtained the Office Keycard. Use a quarter on the vending machine here and enter the code B34 to get the Welding Glue. Go back to the toolbox in the office and use the Welding Glue to fix and obtain the pliers.

Go to the room with the vending machine, then take a left to reach a small patch of dirt near the lockers. Interact with the patch of dirt and click on the dirt to dig out the metal rose. Once the golden hands are exposed, use the pliers to pry open the fingers and get the rose.

Take the metal rose back to the statue door and put the rose in the statue’s hands. After getting past this door, put a quarter in the payphone to give Amy a call. You can call her with the number 555-0199.
