Quick Answer
- In upper Medical Research, scan a living Android with flickering blue eyes.

Rewards: 5,000 XP, 1 Stella Montis Medical Storage Key, 3 Herbal Bandages and 2 Shield Rechargers.
Requirements
- Complete Home to Roost and accept this quest from Celeste.
- Have access to Stella Montis and orient yourself with the Stella Montis map.
- Bring healing, shield recovery and a weapon suited to enclosed rooms.
- Plan for an upper-level medical stop followed by a lower-level tunnel stop.
Keep the loadout modest, but leave yourself enough protection to pause for scans and console interactions.
Scan Any Live Android on Stella Montis
Start on the northern side of upper Medical Research. Look for an Android whose eyes flicker blue and listen for the sounds it makes. A silent, dead Android is not the scan target you need.
- Search the medical area for a living Android rather than stopping at an unresponsive body.
- Move close and complete its scan interaction.
- Wait for the first objective to tick before continuing to Research Lab 3.
In My Image also sends you to Androids on Stella Montis, but its searches are separate from these scans.
Find the Android in Research Lab 3
The quest's Medical Bay is the area labelled Medical Research on the map. Research Lab 3 is upstairs in its southern section, on the upper level.
- Move south through upper Medical Research and follow the Research Lab 3 sign.
- Enter the lab and approach the Android strapped to the middle hospital bed.
- Use SCAN ANDROID to finish the lab objective.
On Deaf Ears uses a computer in Medical Research, while Furtive Meetings also brings you through the medical area. Keep those objectives separate from the bed scan.
Search the Control Room in the Western Tunnels
This is the lower-level Western Tunnels Control Room, not a control room at the Assembly Line or Robotic Sandbox. Leave the medical level before looking for it.
- Exit Medical Research to the east into Loading Bay.
- Use the zipline around the central to eastern side of Loading Bay to descend to its lowest level.
- Continue north into the Western Tunnels and enter the Control Room with the red floor and wall bank of monitors.
- Look to the right inside the room and interact with the quest console to search for clues.
The room and console are the destination, not loose loot on the desks.
How to Extract and Turn In
After the console, head back toward Loading Bay Metro Station or route to Lobby Metro Station, choosing the extraction marked active on your raid map. Listen before entering the platform and leave yourself room to move while the transport arrives.
Return to Speranza and claim the completed quest from Celeste.
Get support for the Medical Research and Western Tunnels route, including the return to extraction.

What Comes Before and After
Home to Roost comes before this quest. Empathetic Prototypes follows, with Lance sending you to recover a core from a suspended crate on Spaceport.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why Can't I Scan an Android?
Look for a living Android with flickering blue eyes and audible signs of activity. Silent, dead bodies are not suitable for this scan, so move to another Android instead of repeatedly searching the same unresponsive one.
Are Medical Bay and Medical Research Different Places?
They refer to the same medical area for this quest. Use Medical Research on the map, stay on its upper level and head to the southern Research Lab 3 room for the Android strapped to a hospital bed.
Which Control Room Do You Need?
Use the lower-level Control Room in the Western Tunnels. Reach it after descending through Loading Bay, then find the console on the right inside the red-floored room with the monitor wall, not the Assembly Line or Robotic Sandbox rooms.
Do You Need the Medical Storage Key for ARC Raiders Someone Elses Shoes?
No. Celeste gives you the Stella Montis Medical Storage Key as a completion reward. The route takes you to a living Android, the Research Lab 3 bed and the Western Tunnels console rather than into the locked Medical Storage room.
