    Hey guys, newbie calling in!

    Finally decided to play the game all the way through, but I am now stuck in Spellhold. I just finished Bodhi's labyrinth, and then went onwards to free the prisoners, which is where the trouble started. When I've finished my conversation with Lonk the Sane (no matter how I do it), Irenicus ports in and the cutscene from the early Spellhold quest begins (the one where he puts you to sleep and removes your soul). During the cut scene there are 2 times Irenicus in the room, since the "real one" wasn't the one that teleported to me. When the scene finishes, I'm stuck in the glass jar in the middle of the room, and my allies are trapped in the room just north of the extraction room. This is a seriously frustrating bug, and I haven't been able to find a way around it. I quick saved after the conversation with Saemon, so I can't simply load to a place before I exited the labyrinth, and my last "real" save is before I even assaulted Bodhi's lair (joined the Shadow Thieves).

    Is this a known bug, and if so is there a fix? Would suck to do all the quests from Bodhi's lair all over again, just to end up in the same situation

    Sry about the wall of text :D

    Do you have Throne of Bhaal installed? Any mods, fixes or patches?

    This is a failing of the unpatched game, the fix is here. Look for "Spellhold Asylum Entry & Sequence Loop Fix".

    Downloading the latest patches or installing ToB should also help.
