Chapter 1: El Marrow
Manny
is in his office and he's pretty desperate. A message came in through the
internal tube station. So walk down to the tube post pipe. Open the Action
menu on the transparent valve in the tube and then click the "Grab Hand" and ....
Manny picks up the
mail and it is a "Special Work Order" from boss Don Copal. We hear
Eva and Don Copal read the message
There is a
"Poisoning" happening, so there are many "Clients" to
score. All travel agents should travel to the Poisoning.
Walk back to the cupboards and then go one
screen to the left, to the table against the left wall.
On the table is a pack of playing cards. Open
the Action menu on the pack of Playing Cards
and then take the package through the "Grab Hand".
Manny then has the deck of cards in his hand. Click,
in the lower right corner, on the Inventory icon to store the deck of cards in inventory.
Then walk down one screen and then down one
screen again and the game now treats you with a message about the Save system ...
Click "OK" to clear the message. Manny then
leaves his office and ends up in the corridor. First let's go save the game
now., so press your "Escape" key to
end up on the main menu screen. Then click on "Save
Game" to get to the Save Game screen.
You
see 4 Save Slots. Click in Slot 1 to save your game now. When you have used all
4 Save Slots you can scroll to new empty slots via the Scroll button. Click
"Return To Main Menu" or press Escape and then click "Return to
Game" to get back to Manny. Manny is now in the hallway. Walk to the
lobby.
Eva, boss Don Copal's secretary, is working
behind her desk.
Open the Action menu
on Eva and then click the "Talk icon"
to talk to Eva. Bottom left talk options will then appear
Click
on a talk option to use it, depending on which option you use you get other
options. You can now continue to talk with Eva for hours and hours, but that is
not the intention. Just ask Eva the "What
Poisoning" and where that outbreak of food poisoning is. Eva
refers Manny to his driver, but unfortunately Manny has no driver. Close the
conversation via "Well, I gotta go hit the
bricks".
Then walk to the left. You then see the 2 lifts
... when you walk to the elevator doors they open automatically.
The left elevator goes to the parking garage and
the rear elevator to the ground floor. Now take the left
elevator to the garage
When Manny gets
out of the elevator in the garage we see a "corpse car" tearing out
of the garage at high speed
.it is the car of
Manny's biggest competitor Domino, who is already on his way to the
"Poisoning".
Walk one screen to the right. You then see the
exit. Run a screen to the left and .......
At the back corner you see the work cabin.
Walk through another screen to the work cabin
and then click with the left arrow on the door of the work cabin and ...
Manny knocks on the door and mechanic Glottis steps outside. You will automatically see
a close-up and your conversation options appear.
Ask
Glottis "Hey, you are a driver?"
but no Glottis is not a driver. Introduce yourself to Glottis and then say "Looks like I need a new driver". Then
ask "You want to be me replacement
driver?" and then continue with "Come
on, Glottis. I need you to be my driver". But Glottis says that
he's too big and therefore doesn't fit in a car. So Glottis suffers from a
considerable inferiority complex. Tell Glottis that he is not too big but that
the cars are too small via "You're not to
big. The cars are just to small" and .....
Glottis wants to be a Manny's driver now, but he first has to adjust
Manny's car so that he fits into it. However, in order to be allowed to tinker
with the car, Glottis needs a Work Order with the signature of boss Copal. Glottis
gives Manny a "Work order" and Manny must now provide it with the
signature of Don Copal. Glottis disappears back into the hut.
So go back to the elevator, via the right, up,
down and then into the elevator.
The elevator takes Manny back up to the Lobby.
Walk to the left and talk to Eva again, air the
talk icon in the Action menu and say "Eva,
I really need the boss to sign this work order" and .....
Eva
"buzzes" the boss but he doesn't want to be disturbed. No luck for
Manny. Walk back to the
elevators and now dive into the rear elevator. Manny gets delivers in the
ground flour corridor and at the huge front door of the building. Click with
your up arrow on the front door and .......
Manny
steps outside and then stands on the landing. Walk down to the sidewalk. You
can now go left and right. To the left the road goes to the "Petrified Forrest", but Manny will not
go there now because he has not yet have a reason to go there. So go screen to
the right and......
In the
distance we see that The Fair Festival is in the city. Do not walk to the fair.
On Manny's left is an alley. Walk into the alley.
There is a metal hatch in the alley. On the side wall of Manny's building you
see a blue "Eye" .... you can view that eye in close-up if you want. In
the back of the alley you see a "Ties
rope" hanging down from the roof of the building
Continue to the back of the alley. Manny is then
at the "Ties Rope". Open the Action menu on the "Ties Rope" and then click the
"Action icon" and ...
Larry now climbs up the "Ties Rope and ends
up on a ledge near the window of Don Copal's office. Notice the Pigeon sitting on the roof.
The window is open, so climb in through the
window. Boss Copal is not present at all. On the right stand the Automatic Answering Machine.
Open the Action menu on the round screen of the
device and then click the "Action icon" ....
You come in close-up of the round screen.
In the screen you click on the down arrow to scroll down to the 5th possibility
"Ah, cripes, Eva! Just sign it yourself,
will ya? I" m busy ".
Click at this 5th
sentence in the box to select the sentence. You will automatically go
out of the close-up. Climb back out the window.
Back on the ledge you open the Action menu on
the "Ties Rope" again and then
climb back down via the "Action icon".
Walk to the left and then further out of the
alley.
Then, on the sidewalk, go down one screen and go
back into the building.
Dive into the elevator again to end up in the
lobby.
Walk to the left again and talk to Eva again,
via the "Talk icon" in the Action menu. Now tell Eva again "Eva, I really need the boss to sign this work
order" and ...
it will now continue by itself for a while
............
Eva
"buzzes" the boss again and she gets to hear the automatic response.
that you just checked yourself and.....
....Eva puts the
signature on the work order and ....
we end up in the
garage where Glottis already has starting with "adjusting" the car
......
We are then on our way to the "Poisoning" but unfortunately
Glottis is not a very good driver and on the way we see that Domino is already
on the way back and that he has scored a "Premium Client".
Manny
then ends up in the Diner where the Poisoning happened. There is a bag on the floor. Walk to the bag. The bag
is moving. Click on the Inventory icon to
grab your scythe. Then open the Action menu
on the bag and click the Action icon and
....
Manny
"cuts" the bag and The corpse of a little man comes out of the bag
and we return to headquarters. Manny finds out that Bruno, the corpse, again
isn't a "Premium Sale" but just a poor man. Don Copal turns up to
tell Manny that he gets 24 hours to score a "Premium Client" or
else.......
We then automatically return to the lobby. It is
high time to cheat.
Go one screen to the left. Eva is still typing
behind her desk. Walk down one screen and see ...
Not only Manny's door is open but also the door
of Manny's biggest competitor, Domino, is now open. Enter Domino's room.
Domino:
Domino
is banging against a punching ball. Go talk to Domino. Domino has a mouth bit
in his mouth to protect his teeth against the punching bag. To give an answer,
Domino must always take the mouth bit off. The conversation is not important,
but you can throw a few insults at Domino. If you have had enough then you say
"Well, see ya in Limbo" to
end the conversation.
Walk down one screen and then on to the window. Behind
the desk is Domino's computer and the tube of the tube post hangs under the
window.
Open the Action menu on the tube post tube and then click the Action icon ....
But Domino has its tube post tube locked with a
lock.
Leave Domino's room and return to the
elevators in the Lobby and take the rear elevator to the ground floor
again.
Walk through to the front doors and ...... Manny
is approached by the caretaker.
The caretaker is angry because someone has sent a beer bottle through
the tube post and that beer bottle has damaged the tube station system quite a
bit. This gives Manny an idea. You can now go outside again, but you can also go left
and right. You can also follow the corridor down at the elevator. Both to the
left, to the right or down will bring Manny into the Foyer and we don't want
that yet.
Go out again through the front doors.
Festival:
Back outside you walk down the landing again and
then you go another screen to the left.
You can see the alley again and the festival. Continue
to the Festival
Manny
ends up at the tents on the festival site. The middle tent is the bread tent
and in front of the right tent stand a Clown. The Clown makes balloon figures. In
the bread tent, on the left, there is a barrel with fresh baguettes Open the
Action menu on the barrel with the baguettes and then click
your grab hand to steal a baguette
Manny then holds the baguette in his hand, so
click on the inventory icon to store the
bread in inventory.
Go
talk to the Clown, via the talk icon in the
Action menu. The Clown is not particularly friendly and does not want to talk
because he is practicing here, so ask "Practicing
what?" Then ask "Twist me up
one of them, eh fella?", But the Clown does not want to make a
balloon figure for Manny.
You
must now get the clown to make 3 balloons
for Manny. So challenge the Clown by saying: "Bet
ya can't do a cat" The Clown does not take this up and he lists
what he can do with the balloons and he asks Manny to name an animal. A list of
animals will appear. Select the "A dead
worm" option and .......
Manny
receives an uninflated balloon from the clown. Store the balloon in
inventory. Manny, however, needs another balloon so talk to the Clown again and
say "My kid wants another balloon animal"
and then ask "Do you have any
more dead worms back there" and ...... The Clown gives Manny
the 2nd uninflated balloon. Store the
balloon in inventory. Manny, however, also needs a figure balloon, so talk to
the Clown again and say "My kid wants another
balloon animal" and then choose a Cat or a Dingo balloon ..... I chose the Dingo. Manny now has 3 balloons, 2 uninflated balloons and 1 dingo or 1 cat
balloon.
Walk down 2 screens and then enter the building
again. Back inside the corridor, Manny is again in front of the front
doors.
Now go left. Manny ends up in the right
seating area.
Go through the opened door and we end up in the:
Packing Room:
Above
the table are 2 spray hoses, the left hose sprays blue liquid and the right
hose sprays red liquid. Stand in front of the table and then open up the
inventory. By default, Manny always picks up the last item that is stored away
in inventory. if you want to take another item from inventory, you scroll
through the items with your left arrow links or
right arrow key
Now take 1 of the 2 uninflated
balloons from inventory and then click on the Select button.
Then open the Action screen on 1 of the two spray hoses and click the Action icon and
......
Manny sprays the balloon full of liquid and then
stores the balloon back in inventory. Do this also with the 2nd uninflated balloon.
So
open the inventory again and use your right arrow to scroll through the items,
until Manny then holds the 2nd uninflated balloon. Then click the Select button and open the Action menu again on 1
of the spray hoses and click the Action icon to also fill the 2nd balloon with
liquid. It doesn't matter if you fill both balloons with the red or with the
blue hose. You can also fill 1 balloon with red and the other with blue.
Manny
has of course also put away the 2nd balloon again. Leave the room and return to
the elevator and take the elevator back up. Back in the lobby you walk another
screen to the left and down and then you enter Manny's
room. Back in Manny's room you walk on to the
tube post tube. Have Manny look at the
"valve" of the tube and then open the inventory.
Manny
automatically takes the last filled balloon out of his pocket. Click on the "Select" button and Manny then stands in
front of the tube post tube with the filled balloon in his hand .... Open the
Action menu on the tube post tube and then
click the Action icon and.......
Manny stuffs the filled balloon into the
tube and we see where the stuff ends up from the balloon.
The
stuff from the balloon ends up in the sorting machine. Open the inventory again
and press your right arrow until Manny has taken the
2nd filled balloon out of his pocket. Then click on the
"Select" button again. Then open the Action menu again on the tube
post tube and click again the Action icon. Manny stuffs the 2nd filled balloon
through the tube and you see again that the stuff ends up in the sorting
machine and you can see that the machine is completely jammed.
Leave
Manny's room to the Lobby and take the rear elevator to the ground floor
corridor. Back down the hall you walk through to the outside doors, but do not
go outside. Now, at the outside doors, turn right. Manny will then enter
the left seating area and here is the entrance to the Sorting room
Sorting room:
The caretaker is
busy removing the junk from the sorting machine, in the loft.
The door of the machine room is open. On the right wall is a red fire
extinguisher. The Caretaker almost causes a fire and Manny then grabs the fire
extinguisher off the wall and runs to the Caretaker. But nothing seems
to be wrong, so Manny puts the fire extinguisher in his deep pockets.
On the inside of the door is a rotary wheel and a so-called "Dead Bolt". That "Dead Bolt"
is currently retracted.
Open the Action menu on the "Dead Bolt" and then click the Action
icon to extend the "Dead Bolt".
Manny extent the dead bolt so that the door
won't lock again
Walk away from the door and leave the room and
we see that the Caretaker has had enough ....
The Caretaker is
leaving the sorting room but because you have extended the "Dead
Bolt" , the door of the machine room does not fall into the lock.
Manny
is in the left seating area, in front of the door of the sorting room. Go back
one screen to the right and then take the elevator back up. Back at the top of
the lobby you go stand in front of Eva's corner. On the front desk of Eva there
is a "Hole Punch", with
which holes can be punched in paper. Open the inventory and scroll to the deck of playing cards and then click the
"Select" button again. Then open the Action menu on the "hole punch" and click the Action icon
and ......
Manny uses the "Hole Punch" to punch
holes in the ace of spade card. This card has is a punch card. Store the card
in inventory.
Dive into the rear elevator and return to the:
Sorting room:
So the
sorting machine is working again. Continue to the left. Manny ends up at the
door of the machine room. The door is closed, but because you previously
extended the "Dead Bolt", the door did not fall into the lock. Open
the Action menu on the door's wheel and then
click the Action Icon and .......
Manny
pulls in the door and then walks into the cabin. A red tube protrudes to the
left of the machine. Take the Ace of Spade card
from inventory, where you have punctured the holes in, and then click the
"Select" button. Then open the Action menu on the red tube and click the Action Icon and ..........
Manny inserts the "punch card" into the slot of the tube and
he finds out the name of the client, who will be picked up by Domino in a
minute, and her name is Mercedes Colomar. Mercedes seems to be pretty much a
saint. Manny is going to put on his robe and then goes to the garage. In the
garage we see that Glottis has somewhat rebuilt the car into a super fast car
We then race over the road, on our way to Mercedes Colomar. On the way
we pass the car from Domino, who is also on his way to Mercedes. However, Manny
reached Mercedes first, who only now realizes that she is dead. Manny takes
Mercedes to his office. Manny is convinced that with Mercedes he has finally
scored a "Premium Client", but when he looks into his computer, he
finds out that the system says that Mercedes is not eligible for any extra packages.
That can't be right .......
Now talk to Mercedes, Meche for her friends,
through the conversation options and use them all
Mercedes really
has never done anything sinful in her life, so something is not right here. Manny
is now convinced that the boss and Domino are messing things up.
Leave Manny's office and walk on to Eva in the
lobby and ......
As soon as Manny
enters the lobby, boss Don Copal bursts out of his office and he is very angry
with Manny.
Manny gets a wind
full in Copal's office, with Domino also present.
Because Manny did not sell a ticket for the Number 9 train to Mercedes,
Mercedes has since left on foot. Boss gets even more angry about this and it
all ends with Manny getting locked up by the boss in Glottis' work
shack, downstairs in the garage
You have control again. Click with the arrow on
the door and Manny knocks on the door and screams that he wants to get out
....
A shadow will appear in front of the window and
conversation options will appear.
Start by asking "Who's
out there" and then continue "The
DOD runs a crooked game, and I intend to prove it ".....
... and then finish with "I'm
gonna blow the member of this place ....." and.....
