I’m not a fan of badges. They stick there nose in other people’s biz, give ordinary people a hard time, do the corps’ bidding. But, sometimes it’s worth getting into bed with your enemies – at least they’ll owe you something for later.
There’s this badge, Jasmine Dixon. She’s been patrolling NC streets since ’61, reached the rank of sergeant. One day at the precinct she heard something she shouldn’t ‘ve. Instead of keeping her mouth shut, she took it to her supervisor. The next day they wheeled her off to a psych ward. The kind where they prescribe lobotomies and electrotherapy.
Your job is to get her out of there, but she doesn’t have any scratch. I’ll spot her this time – she’ll owe me a favor when I need one.
Objectives:
- Get Inside The Hospital
- Get Inside The Restricted Area
- Find Jasmine Dixon’s Cell
- Open Jasmine’s Cell
- Talk To Jasmine Dixon
- Escort Jasmine Dixon Out Of The Hospital
- Talk To Jasmine Dixon
Starting Location: Cuckoo’s Nest
Get Inside The Hospital
From the location above, there are two ways to get into the hospital. You can climb up the scaffolding to the left of the entrance and jump to the upper roof, where there is a door that requires 15 Body Ability Points to open.
If you don’t have that many, you will need to enter the hospital through the front door, disabling the security camera in the reception and entering the door on your right.
Get Inside The Restricted Area
Once inside, head into the break room and out the door. Wait for the doctor pushing the patient in the wheelchair to pass and exit the room again. You are now clear to head down the corridor.
Find Jasmine Dixon’s Cell
Now that you are in the restricted area, head up the staircase on the left. Quickhack the machine to distract the guard and incapacitate the enemy from behind. Jasmine’s cell is the one on the left of the block of three up on this floor.
Open Jasmine’s Cell
Open Jasmine’s Cell to begin talking with them.
Talk To Jasmine Dixon
Talk to Jasmine and get her to come with you by choosing the following dialogue options:
Dialogue:
- You’re coming with me.
- Get it together – we need to start moving.
Escort Jasmine Dixon Out Of The Hospital
Once you have finished talking with Jasmine, you can take the staircase up to the roof and open the door, jumping down to the lower level and then the ground and across the road.
Talk To Jasmine Dixon
Talk with Jasmine and choose either option to get her to go in the car, completing the gig.
This finishes Cuckoo’s Nest gig in Cyberpunk 2077 (CP77).

There’s a Johnny dialog on the ground floor, he comments on a soldier in one of the rooms, saying they were in the same unit and fought in mexico..
I was like woah wtf? I knew he was a merc I didn’t know he fought in the war, what a trip
Tech says
There’s a window you can open with 15 tech on the far right side of the building. There’s a scaffolding under it.
Sergey says
Ok can someone tell me why is there a transmitter (same as the one in the peralez family quest) on top of the building? I have scanned the landscape, but nothing there…
Zork says
I’ve searched line of sight up to 1.5km, found a gang situation in a backyard with some servers in the swimming pool, but no receiver. Neat spot to find though
Jose Pereira says
This is exactly what I looking for. Really weird and got me thinking. Haven’t found an explanation yet.
IamMe says
Anyone figure this out yet???
charly4711 says
Been hunting high and low, with no luck.
What strikes me, though, is that the transmitter looks just like the one in the “Dream On” job.
Faun says
there’s a parking lot up the curvy road right under El Capitán that is the perfect spot for a van to be, it’s empty at the moment. I wonder if you have to find them during the dream on sequence. The thing is she fits the profile for having been mind controlled, I think the whole quest is just unfinished and it became a simplified rescue mission when CDPR couldn’t finish the project
Fox says
Having a bug where I am unable to talk to her. There is no prompt for dialogue. Reloaded and tried many times and even older saves. Hope this is fixed soon. It’s all I was missing for my platinum trophy
G.Berger says
I never got paid for this gig, even after reloading and replaying it several times in different ways.
