At this point I'm so frustrated. I've made all this progress to be stopped here. I'm doing the powering up mission. I'm at the part where I have to attend the meeting and sit on the chair but the mission won't play on. I sit in the chair and nothing happens. Any help would be amazing

you have to look at Father, he actually says something that prompts dialog

Not the first meeting mission the second one. (Spoiler) I'm supposed to become directorate but it won't let me go any farther

you have to look at the girl on the right

She doesn't respond. She just talks about the institute and nothing happens
