After flooding the mines, you can go to Baldur's Gate at last. There, you will meet Scar (you can trust his words). He will ask you to investigate the Seven Sun which in fact infested with dopplegangers. It's quite a simple guess if you've been a DM as long as I have.
Anyway, inside you will meet another character who will join your cause. His name is Quayle the Cleric/Illusionist.
Also, upon entering Baldur's Gate you will meet Elminster for the third time, if you did meet him in Beregost telling you where to go to investigate the bandits. Bla bla bla here...
Anyway, you'll meet a shop which pretty well sell cursed stuff, I really laughed at this point. Also, when you enter the houses and some dude walks up to you and ask for a password, it's "Fafhrd". It's the password for the thieves' guild here in Baldur's Gate. Try not to make enemies with them because they are pretty neat actually and there is a thief in there that sells Potions of Thievery which will really come in handy picking those rich folks or completing certain subquests. Also, you will meet a person who tells you that some people are looking for you and gives the same password in this area.
Also, there is a really peculiar place that looks like a big colorful onions and in there they sell magic stuff. Inside, you will find a stairway upstairs. Upon going upstairs, you would have interrupted a bunch of wizards casting a spell which you have so kindly interrupted. They are really rude and don't feel hesitant killing them if they attack you, you won't get a reputation decrease unless you attack them while they are still neutral.
Here's the trick to finishing chapter five. Go to the Iron Throne Mansion (at the North West corner of the docks in Baldur's Gate) and kill the baddies at the top level. Pretty tough bunch and strategy 13 and 14 are best here. Then you will get documents saying of their plan.
Then go to the area just west of the docks and somewhere south, you will meet a merchant who claims that his partners in trade have turned weird all of a sudden. This subquests should be taken for you will get a neat sword that has a +3 vs shapeshifters which you will meet a lot later on. Remember to have the documents of the dopplegangers involvement on the character when he is talking to the person in charge.
After disposing of those nasties, you head over to the Seven Suns which should be close by. There, you will also meet a couple of hungry dopplegangers which wants your flesh (by the way, dopplegangers uses ESP to get your thoughts then shapeshift into your body hape which later they eat you afterwards, gross isn't it?). Go upstairs and get rid of them. Then in this same area, go to the Flaming Fist headquarters which is huge Garrison and tell Scar about the dopplegangers. Then he will ask you to clean the infestation. Say you will do it and talk to him again, and he will give you your reward and you gain a freebie XP. Later he ask you to go find out what is making people missing and you should head to the sewers. That is pretty easy to solve though. Anyway, if you want to finish this, tell Scar you have to time for that and he will lead to you to Eltan the duke of Baldur's Gate. Make sure your character's inventory is not filled up for he will give you the Tome of Great Value for which you need to be allowed into CandleKeep again.
There is a good subquest in here which is relatively easy if you have 2000 gp. You head to the area North West of Baldur's Gate where the Hall of Wonders are located. Somewhere north of this great white buildings, a kid will approach you with a problem. Tell the kid you accept the quest and he will show you the house to go to. There you will see a Priest of Tymora who will ask you to get his dead son back from the temple of Umberlee. The Temple is just is in the same area as the docks so getting there should be that bad. Talk to the person who greets you upon entering the temple and ask for Priestess in charge. Give her a large donation and she will meet with you. Then pay the priestess 2000 gp for the body and immediately head back to return the son to the Priest. You will get a Shield of Missile Deflection.
