 | | -->examine penguin The amphibious fowl stares ahead silently.
Provided your previously preconceived proper penguin perception preoccupation, it becomes appearant that this particular penguin seems to be in perpetual peril.
That is to say, the penguin looks upset.
The silk tie on it's neck is an indication of the penguins status, being that it probably is like something formal because fancy people wear ties and there is the stereo type that penguins are fancy due to their tuxedoean appearance. Not that they have choice in the matter, the pattern of their feathers really has nothing to do with the social-economical upbringing of this person, so such prejudments are rather unfounded. In fact I don't think they even have a single proper opera house in the Antarctic.
It is quite probably that the penguin would have something for you to do and likely would give a reward upon completion of it's desired task: that is usually how games like this work.
Unfortunately it is a penguin, so it cannot speak english. Infact I don't even know how to transcribe whatever sound a penguin makes. Is it like a woop or a squawk? Most weird birds squawk, I'll just assume it would squawk. But oh look there I go being prejudicial now. Not that any of this is verifiable as the bird is, as before mentioned, silent.

--> examine bump in rug
Yup, it is, in all certainty, a bump.
A wiggly bump at that. It is kind of hard to animate a surface without photomanipulation however, so suffice to say those wiggly lines around the bump may be movement lines.
Or they could also indicate the bump isn't only the obvious definition of "bump-shaped" but may actually be consistent of multiple unrelated bumps? Especially considering the top bump is moving independent of the shape underneath?
This is probably like one of those clue things you see all the time where like the camera kinda goes all zoomy and everything greys out except for the object.
Kinda the way Sherlock Holmes sees things according to pretty much every adaptation of his story arch.
Which is kind of silly, I would imagine the color of all objects around to be significant, and the sudden lack of color perception to be unnerving I hope Mr. Holmes doesn't have some like eye problem, but then again with all the drugs he usually is described as taking, I wouldn't be surprised if his sight was ill-affected. Then again I am not a super awesome detective so maybe that's just how they are trained to see things?
So yeah, its a really fancy purple rug, as evident by the fact that it has those frilly's at the end and is purple. Usually expensive stuff is purple. Did you know they used to make purple die out of abalone shell? Was really expensive too, now they just synthesize all that crap with artificial chemicals or indigo, which is actually a poisonous plant. Maybe the rug is poisonous and was a murder weapon or something? Man that would be an exciting twist. Probably not though...
