I don't remember the name of the quest.
What I do know is, that it took place in Solitude.
Your objectives were, among other, to disrupt a party held by some 'up tight' woman.
By doing so, you're supposed go give someone a beer which, in return, will make him make a scene at this venue.
So you sneak off and all that, BUT, and this is the .... part:
After handing over your armory and weapons, I never got it back during the actual quest.
MEANING that I had to do it all with my fists and with my untrained magic skills.
ALSO, I forgot to sneak so all of the guards were instantly at my back every time I respawned.
So basically, after dieting/kiting for at least 2 hours, I finally managed to free some prisoner..
I really, really hated the game at that particular time
