Ok so I'm doing the quest where you pretend to kill a guy in debt before the loan shark kills him.So I poison the guy and run away.Then I return after a couple of days.Went to the chapel undercroft.So basicly I'm supposed to revive him with an antidote but he's awake!I don't have the option to talk to him,or to give him the antidote the only option is to kill him which I don't want to do.Please help me.
P.S
I know most of you hate the dark brother hood and have a hard time finishing the quest line (fable,wench)

You're supposed to go back the following day, not a couple of days later. If by a couple you men three or more then the cells would have re-spawned, which could be the root cause of your problem. Also when you say poison the guy I assume you mean you stabbed him with the Languorwine Knife and that you hadn't actually coated it with any additional poison.
I suggest you reload a save you made shortly after 'killing' him and trying again, or before you 'killed' him if you used the wrong weapon or had poisoned the knife yourself.
If you're playing o a PC then as a last resort you could use the console (see the sticky) the code you need to enter is
SetStage Dark05Assassinated 60
. If you aren't on a PC then your only option is to revert to a previous save, or forget the Dark Brotherhood.

I am on the PC and I do come back the following day I was just in a hurry and didn't bother to post it like that.I tried the console code it worked seeing as my main char right now is lvl 46 and I want him to finish most of the quests on Oblivion.Anyway thanks for the advice it helped.
