It is revealed that Mila was telling Dunning about what happened the night Jenny was kidnapped. Kyle will also find the letter Robert Evans wrote to Dunning in 1972.Īfter being rescued by Louie, the two find Dunning and Mila in a secret room nearby.
When Kyle is locked in the basement, he can find a photo of Dunning and Jenny inside the book Osterzone: The Phantom Painter.
More birthday cards addressed to her can be found in the desk drawer in Dunning's room. Her name is also hidden one letter at a time in the five apple paintings Kyle must find later that night. Kyle has the option of asking about these however, Rosa has no information, and questioning Dunning will lead to getting thrown out of the hotel. A birthday card addressed to her is on the desk, and her birthday is circled on the calendar. Kyle first learns of Jenny's existence when he sneaks into Dunning's office. He has been waiting for Jenny to come back, saying that waiting is all he can do. However, stories were circulating about the night of Jenny's abduction, and so he made up stories about the "wish room" in order to get good publicity. He said that Dunning only needed to complete one more job, then to "be patient" and Jenny would be returned.įive years prior to the game's events, Dunning reopened Hotel Dusk. Robert sent him a letter in response, dated September 9, 1972. In desperation, Dunning began to paint again, but soon became frustrated and wanted to give up. When he asked Robert why Jenny was taken, Robert claimed it was because Dunning refused to paint any longer. Upon discovering her missing, Dunning searched the hotel, but was unable to find her. Mila ran to the kidnapper and told him to stop, but blacked out a few seconds later. He grabbed Jenny and tried to take her, but she began screaming and crying for help. The girls woke up to see a man (presumably one of Nile's members) opening the door. They played for a while, but soon became exhausted and fell asleep. When their fathers went to the bar for a few drinks, Jenny and Mila were told to wait in room 111 until they returned. Ten years prior to the start of Hotel Dusk, Robert invited Dunning to the hotel, and each brought his daughter.
Dunning and Robert stayed in contact and created the painter Osterzone, until Dunning tired of it and refused to keep painting. In the airport, her father reunited with another new widower he knew in college, Robert Evans, and his daughter Mila. Jenny's mother died in the 1960 Las Vegas plane crash.
