Doctor Bose was a visitor to the hotel, having been called there by Rose Hall, Jimmy's mother, to help understand and rationalize his erratic behavior.

Despite being a psychiatrist, he was unable to properly diagnose the cause of Jimmy's actions.

Doctor Bose began experiencing issues almost immediately, finding that Jimmy had been killing animals for fun. Recognizing that Jimmy needed help with empathy, he asked him to think of something nice he could do for him. Jimmy immediately went to the kitchen, put on a chef's hat he'd found, and began making him a sandwich. Doctor Bose, pleased at the genuinely thoughtful gesture, asked him to bring it up to his room when he was done.

**”This is a great idea, Jimmy. I reckon you’ll make a great cook one day. Why don’t you bring it up to me when you are done? I’ll wait for you, OK?” -** Doctor Bose talking to Jimmy in the Kitchen

At some point during this process, Hugo took over his mind and put broken glass in the sandwich before serving it to Doctor Bose. Doctor Bose, his mouth full of glass and blood, ran to the bathroom and attempted to spit it into the sink, using a cloth to stem the bleeding. He kept the blood-stained cloth in case he needed it as evidence. He was going to go to the police, but thought instead to try to help Jimmy to not do these things, rather than have the police punish him. He had Diazepam, a medication meant to treat erratic behavior in some individuals, on hand; it wasn’t the best medicine, but it was all he had, and he needed to help Jimmy immediately. Jimmy would not let him administer the medication, and he had to chase him around the hotel, finally cornering him at the dead end of floor 2, asking him to stop moving around and telling him he's not trying to hurt him.

**“This won’t hurt Jimmy. All you have to do is to stand still and stop moving around!” -** Doctor Bose with a needle.

Jimmy, however, accused Doctor Bose of beating Jimmy with a paddle to get him to submit to taking the medication. Doctor Bose was able to convince Rose, who at first believed Jimmy, that he was lying and that this behavior was why he needed to try the Diazepam. But then Jimmy stepped up the lie to an accusation of molestation. Rose called the police, and Doctor Bose was arrested and presumably charged with child molestation.

One night, while he was out on bail, Doctor Bose used his spare hotel keys to sneak in, intending to hang himself from the elevator as it ascended from the basement. He had experimented with some washing line and a rolling pin before, but the washing line was too thin to support his weight, so he found and used rope instead. Doctor Bose succeeded in ending his own life, as shown in an apparition. Doctor Bose said that he did it out of hopelessness; his career, his life, was over.

As it turns out, Jimmy had taken the molestation story straight from a newspaper article about a doctor molesting a young boy, which he had glued into his scrapbook. Harvey's story begins with him questioning the legitimacy of the accusation and defending Doctor Bose.

## Bugs

* As with a few visions, sometimes Dr. Bose's first vision outside room 217 will not spawn when you look at it, but the lights near the vision (not at the vision) will still flicker as if there's something nearby to see. This can be fixed by saving outside of floor 2, restarting your game, loading your save and attempting the vision again.
