You'll find a bunch of Sierra employees in the PD's computer system: Jon Bock, Jane Cardinal, Jeff Crowe, Mark Crowe, Carlos Escobar, Frank Ferrell, Desi Hartman, Jane Jensen and more.

Clicking on any of the names will bring up their sheet, often with references to other Sierra games:
- Bock Jon's, Crowe Jeff's, Crowe Mark's, Ferrell Frank's, Jensen Jane's, Larson James', Smith Daryle's division is PQ3.
- Cardinal Jane's, Escobar Carlos', Hartman Desie's, Loyd Cheri's and Morgan Maurice division is LL5 (Leisure Suit Larry 5).
- Crowe Mark's Departmental Action states "Not enough memory to list awards. But he'll be greatly missed." Mark Crowe had just left Sierra to join Dynamix at the time.
- Loyd Cheri's Departmental Action states "A hats off salute for her artistic contribution in PQ2 and Code Name Iceman."
- Walls James (BB), who's division is "designer", Departmental Action states "Outstanding contribution of PQ, PQ2, Code name Iceman to Sierra product line."

Mr. Stumps, the janitor, loves fishing. Talk to him and he'll mention a "great little lake just outside town that's chuck fulla bass", a clear reference to Bass Lake in Madera county, California, not far from Sierra headquarters.

On day 6, after sabotaging the toilet and asking the janitor to clean it up, go talk to the janitor. He'll talk to himself, saying "Bet it was that Officer Walls again", referring to game designer Jim Walls.

On day 6, in the psychiatrist's office, repeatedly click on the Newton's cradle (the little pendulum with marbles on his desk). The game will respond with "Now that IS Freudian", but after multiple clicks the doctor, played by Corey Cole, will have enough of it and ask you to stop playing with his balls.
