No speech checks for Forty and Crimson

[hal900x]

I posted this in the F3 troubleshooting forums, but I could not find any mention of this issue in the Vanilla bug list so it could be caused by a mod. At the appropriate point in the quest, I cannot speak with Forty or Crimson after midnight in Paradise Falls. They give me the usual pre-quest shrug-off. Using updated unofficial patch 1.8, launching with FOSE, with the 3GB hack on.

I was just missing a trigger event. IIRC it was entering the cage and speaking with Sammy, but I could be wrong. Answer your own posts, ppl.
