help with Wendie and a thank you to indy

Im having a large/small (large for me small for you
) problem and was wondering if i could get some help.
sadly, while i absolutely love this game, thank you indy!, i cannot seem to get where i need to be without the walkthru bc its way more detailed than anything ive played before.
So, i am stuck at the house of torture quest. the below is where im at.
i go in, i talk to demetrio, he says he can pay me 3k, 2 up front and 1 later and dont bother him he'll come see me. when i talk to him again, he says, i asked you to leave. hello! dont wanna go, want you to take wendie so i can go on with the game. any pointers? ive read all 24 pages, ok i skimmed, but still all 24 pages of posts and cant find anything. i dont think i missed anything but if i did, i apologize but if someone could help i would be very grateful.
oh, and indy, in case you missed it, THANK YOU! i love the lf and millenium series. some of my absolute faves to date.



If you have the Sacjdil House of Torture quest from LFII equip Random to increase his persuasion points and taking just Wendala go to meet Demetrio (top left house on Main Avenue). Demetrio offers 2000g for Random. With persuasion this can go higher. I got 3300g.
