1.1 Introduction to Day of the Tentacle
Day of the Tentacle is a graphic adventure game release by LucasArts
Entertainment Company. Before LucasArts was known for their many Star Wars
games, they had a huge following of adventure fans, and were one of the most
popular adventure game companies in the industry. LucasArts, formally LucasFilm
Games, created an outstanding collection of well loved adventure games that
ranged from stories involving pirates to tabloid reporters, and everything in
between. Their first adventure game, MANIAC MANSION is actually the prelude to
DAY OF THE TENTACLE and was released about 8 years earlier. Their latest
adventure game has been ESCAPE FROM MONKEY ISLAND (2000), the fourth in another
amazing adventure series.
DAY OF THE TENTACLE (DOTT) was release in 1993, during the height of LucasArts'
popularity. It was one of their earliest games to include full digitized voice
effects, and a separate CD "Talkie" version was released along with the
traditional 3 1/4" floppy version. Even to this day DOTT is remembered as one
of LucasArts finest titles, as can be attested by its induction into GAMESPOT'S
"The Greatest Games of All Time" list, on April 20, 2004.
One reason DOTT has always been popular is largely due to its great cartoon-
style humour. DOTT has seriously got to be one of the funniest games I have
ever played. Additionally, DOTT's cartoon graphics and wacky annimation still
to this day look fresh, original, and less dated than many games that have been
around for 13 years.
As a quick synopsis, DAY OF THE TENTACLE is a wacky adventure where one of Dr.
Fred's pet tentacles mutates into an insane genius, and tries to take over the
world. Well, what possible harm could one insane, mutant tentacle do?
You are about to find out...
On a personal note, DOTT remains one of my favourite games, and is only
surpassed by the Monkey Island series. For some reason I've always been more
interested in pirates than mutant green tentacles that are trying to take over
the world... go figure.
1.2 Introduction to the guide
In this guide I will attempt to provide a complete and useful aid that will
help you to finish Day of the Tentacle. Some people believe that by using
walkthroughs you are cheating yourself, and that they should be avoided. I,
on the other hand, rather use a walkthrough or guide to help me through a
particularly frustrating puzzle rather than giving up on a game and never
completing it. If this guide helps even one more person to finish this amazing
game I will know that my effort that went into this guide was worth it.
This guide is made up of many different sections, and depending what type of
help you are looking for, one section might suit you better than others. First,
there is a hint section for general clues that might help you overcome an
obstacle, without giving the puzzles away. Then there is a complete detailed
walkthrough section that describes one method of completeing the game in
detail. This is the most comprehesive section of the FAQ. For those of you
who prefer quick instructions to finish the game without extensive reading,
check out the Step-by-step walkthrough section. I've also included a list of
all the interactive items you will be using and where they can be found, along
with lists of all the locations and characters in the game. For added bonus
I've also included the majority of the cutscene dialog found throughout the
game, and a complete credits list.
Side Note:
You may be wondering why I wrote this guide for a game that already has quite
a few walkthroughs and FAQs available (some of which are really quite good)...
well my answer is this: I wanted to write a guide, and as all my favorite games
already have guides written for them I thought I wouldn't worry about it and
just write the guide that I would enjoy the most - yes, the main purpose of
this guide is to help people finish the game, but if I didn't enjoy writting
it I would never have finished. I thought that Day of the Tentacle would be a
very interesting guide to write, as it is one of my all-time favorite games.
It should also be noted that I have not read any of the other available
walkthroughs in detail, and that this entire guide is completely my own work.
Obviously some of the sections that I have included may be found in other
guides, but everything found in this file is my own work and I did not refer
to any other source other than the game itself while I wrote it.

| --- 2.0 PLAYING --- / / | | ... ON WINDOWS XP |
| THE DAY OF THE TENTACLE { / | | (WITH SOUND!) |
+=============================================================================+
DOTT is an old DOS-based game, and due to the many advancements in computer
technology you will be very lucky to get DOTT to run properly on a newer
machine. Most likely it will run, but there will be no music or sound effects.
Personally, playing DOTT without the awesome music and without the superb
voice-over actors would be like eating lasagne without meat, cheese, and...
well, anyway, it would definitely take away from the experience. Fortunately
there are a few things you can try-
1) SCUMMVM - This program seriously rocks. Thanks to some hard-working
individuals there is a free program out there that will allow you to play all
your old LucasArts games (and others) on the newest systems with full voice
and sound. Additionally, there are many other options where you can add
filters to the graphics, play the game in a window, etc...
Believe me, when I found out about SCUMMVM and found out most importantly
that it actually works, I was so thankful that I could finally play DOTT, Sam
and Max Hit the Road, Full Throttle, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis,
etc... on Windows XP.
www.scummvm.org
Additonally you can ask for help relating to old LucasArts games and using
SCUMMVM in the Help forums at www.lucasforums.com
2) Another option is to find a computer that is dated just like the game. A
good 486 with a CD-ROM drive and sound card should be able to play DOTT just
fine. Otherwise stick with SCUMMVM.

+===========\________________/================================================+
Pick up everything you can. Odds are, at some point all those strange things
will serve some purpose.
If you get stuck and can't figure out how to proceed, try looking through all
the items you've found and thinking about how each one might be used. Think
about the places you've gone and the people you've met. Chances are there will
be a connection that will put you back on track.
If you become frustrated with one particular puzzle try working on something
else. This a very non-linear game so many of the puzzle can be solved in any
order. Plus, there are times that by solving one puzzle you will inadvertently
allow yourself to solve another.
Note: The above hints can be found in the LucasArts game manual.
During the cutscenes in the middle of the game, when it shows different events
happening around the mansion, hints are often revealed about what you should be
doing next.
If you become really frustrated you can always take a break and play the
original Manaic Mansion by accessing the computer in Weird Ed Edison's room...
or you could aways resort to the walkthrough presented in this guide!
Although there is a set story that you progress through, there may be
times when you will be tempted to stray from this guide if something attracts
your attention. I found this game to be very non-linear (meaning that you can
solve many of the puzzles in any order), one reason I really like this game -
if you get frustruated by one puzzle you can always go somewhere else and
explore another part of the game. However, for the sake of this guide I will
provide the quickest route through the game - follow this guide and you will
be able to successfully complete the game. Deviate from this guide and you may
find some interesting things to look at or characters to talk to that you
would have otherwise missed - you should always be able to come back to the
guide if you get stuck and I will try to label different sections of the game
clearly. As a testament to the mainy quirky animations and hidden lines of
dialog, I just noticed something I completely forgot about - while I was
typing this Benard got tired of waiting for me and decided to pick his nose!
4.1 Objective: Find Doctor Fred's Secret Lab
Okay, this is where you begin. Your first order of business is to find Doctor
Fred's Secret Lab and rescue the tentacles. Take a look around the room you
are in, which will be hereafter called the lobby, or Front Hall. If you try
to go through the double doors Benard will tell you that Laverne has that
territory, and likewise Hoagie is looking up the stairs. Bernard will also
not be able to leave the house until he finds the tentacles. Before you move
on you can pick of a few things in this room : The Vaccum Cleaner Flier, the
Help Wanted sign in the window, and the dime in the change return of the
phone. You can try to pick up the dime on the floor, but it is stuck in a
piece of gum. After picking up these items enter into Doctor Fred's office to
explore and pick up a few more useful items (for later). Open the desk drawer
and you can pick up the Booboo-B-Gone. The Swiss Bank Book on the desk will
also prove useful.After exhausting Doctor Fred's office return to the Front
Hall and open up the grandfather clock, revealing a hidden passage to Doctor
Fred's secret lab.
4.2 Objective : Find Doctor Fred's super-battery plans
After a rather long and informative (not to mention downright hilarious)
cutscene you will be once more in control of Bernard down in Dr. Fred's secret
lab. From the cutscene, Doctor Fred has made it prefectly clear you have to
1)Find the plans for Doctor Fred's super-battery 2)Bring back Laverne and
Hoagie from their respective times, which involves getting a new diamond and
plugging in their time machines 3)Save the world from Purple Tentacle, and
finally, 4)Get out of Doctor Fred's house. To start with, let's find those
plans.
Although Dr. Fred is convinced that the plans are upstairs it might be a good
idea to check his "To Do" list. Head over to the right side of the basement
and you will see a bulletin board with a piece of paper stuck on it. Quickly
pick up the plans and trigger the next cutscene.
4.3 Objective: Find RED Edison and give him the super-battery plans
At this point you can now play Hoagie as he adventures in the past. At any
time you can switch to Bernard using the character symbol on the right of
your inventory. Your first order of business is to give the super-battery
plans to Fred's distanct ancestor, Red Edison, so head over to the left of
the screen and take the path toward the Inn.
NOTE:
At different points in the game there will be quick scenes showing what else
is going on elsewhere in the game. These scenes don't necessarly come in a
certain order, but most of them contain clues about future puzzles in the
game. Most likely one of these scenes will trigger when you leave the
outhouses and walk toward the house. A dialog collection of these scences can
be found in Sections 8.57, 8.65, and 8.77.
Have Hoagie walk to the Inn and open the front door into the main hall. You
will now be in the front hall of the same mansion, 200 years in the past.
Near the grandfather clock you will find Dead Cousin Ted (Ted made an
appearance in the original MANIAC MANSION game, and plays a role later on in
DOTT). You can talk to Ted at this point, but this, although very funny and
definitely worth your time, will not progress them game in any way. To
progress, the grandfather clock next to Ted will get you to Red Edison's lab.
Once you enter the lab its a good idea to pick up the left-handed hammer, a
seemingly useless item, which will play an important role later. You can take
a look at the lab coat on the wall, but won't be able to pick it up right now
- it is for employees only. Giving Red the super-battery patent application
will reveal that he needs oil, vinegar, and some gold to fabricate the
battery.
4.4 Objective: Find oil, vinegar, and some gold and give it to Red Edison
4.41 Objective: Get some oil and vinegar and free Laverne
Your job now is to locate some oil, vinegar and gold so that Red Edison can
finish the Super Battery. The battery will eventually supply Hoagie with
power to run his Chron-O-John allowing him to return to the present. You
can now leave Red Edison's lab and go up the front hall stairs. You may
notice a protrait of "The late Max Attucks" in the second floor hallway
(Familiar? Maybe, if you played SAM AND MAX HIT THE ROAD). Enter the third
doorway and you will find yourself in a bedroom with some kite plans on the
wall. This is Benjamin Franklin's room. Look around for the wine-bottle and
leave the room. Head back downstairs and enter the Fireplace Lounge through
the double doors. Cross through the room and through the swinging door into
the kitchen. On the shelves you will find oil and spaghetti. (Note: The oil
is one of the items you need to give Red Edison, but the sphaghetti isn't
important till later. In adventure games it is often a good idea to collect
as many items as you can find, even if you don't need them right away. If
you rather collect these items later, when their use is more apparent, you
can always come back. An easy way to find the location of an item and to
find out its use is to look in Section 6, which contains all the items in
the entire game) Continue through the door on the right to the Storage Room
(pantry). In here you can pick up the bucket and a brush in the cabinet on
the left of the screen. Now return to the room with the fireplace and give
the wine-bottle to Thomas Jefferson for his time capsule. The reasoning
behind this is wine will turn to vinegar if you leave it long enough, say
for a couple hundred years...
Walk over to the fire place and climb up the chimney to the roof. Once you
are on the roof enter the window and pick up the red paint. Open the trap
door and go all the way downstairs and outside. Return to the outhouses and
where you will notice a kumquat tree. Paint the kumquats red and return to
the fireplace room. Talk to George Washington and Pick "Whoa, you're like
George Washington!" Choose any second option and then "Is it true about you
and the cherry tree?" and finally "I bet you've lost it. You couldn't cut
down a tree to save your grandmother." After this conversation George will
chop down the kumquat tree which he mistakes for a cherry tree. This action
has a direct impact on Laverne, 200 years in the future.
At this point you are now in control of all three main characters, and can
switch between them at any time. Switch to Laverne, and you will find yourself
stuck in a human Kennel. The inmates behind you are future relatives of Doctor
Fred, and their bitterness toward him is definitely apparent. Try talking to
the guard and tell him "Oooh... I don't feel so good..". The guard will bring
you to the Tentacle Doctor, who will diagnose you to be perfectly OK. Once the
doctor leaves you will have the oportunity to pick up the tentacle chart from
the wall. Once you have the chart exit through the door. As part of the human
race, Laverne is very restricted in her movement in the future. The chart
plays an important part in allowing her to move about, but the key is in the
past. Try going out the main door and you will find yourself back in the jail.
Talk to the guard again this time saying "I have to go to the bathroom!".
Once you are outside walk to the right and you will end up back at the Chron-O-
John. Flush the tentacle chart to Hoagie using the Chron-O-John (just pick up
the object and click on Hoagie's icon) and switch over to Hoagie, 200 years in
the past.
As Hoagie return into the house and go up to the second floor. Enter the Sewing
Room (middle door) and pick the only option, "I've got another design change
for the flag." Choose any of the following options and Betsy Ross will tell
you to put the design on the table. Use the Laverne's Tentacle Chart with the
plans on the table, which will cause a major change in history. The American
Flag will be replaced with one in the shape of a tentacle. The Tentacle Flag
will act as a disguise for Laverne, but first you need something to get the
flag within reach.
Switch to Bernard and go up to the second floor. Stop by Dwayne's room (middle
door). You can talk to Dwayne for a while, but before you leave grab the
disappearing ink by the door. Before going upstaird enter the last room on the
right (far end of the hall) and you will find Green Tentacle. After talking to
Green Tentacle, pick up the videotape off the stereo and continue upstairs. Go
all the way up to the attic and out the window to the roof. On the flag pole
you will find a crank, which you should grab and send to Laverne through the
Chron-O-John.
Switching back to Laverne, walk back to the front of the former motel and enter
the front door, ending back in the Kennel. Convince the guard that you are sick
again by saying "Oooh... I don't feel so good...", and you will be brought back
to the Doctor's Office. If you exit the office you will have a marginal amount
of freedom to explore, enough to get to the room with a fireplace (door under
the red sign). Climb up the fireplace and up onto the roof. Use the crank that
you got from Bernard to lower the tentacle flag and "use" the flag to have
Laverne pull it on as a costume. Grab the crank before you leave and head back
down the chimney. Return the the main hall and walk past the Purple Tentacle
Human Catcher and up the stairs. Enter the first door on the second floor and
quickly switch back to Hoagie.
Have Hoagie send his can-opener to Laverne and Laverne will be able to use it
to open the same time capsule Thomas Jefferson was making 200 years in the
past. Inside you will find the same wine-bottle, which has now turned to
vinegar. Have Laverne send the vinegar back to Hoagie, which he can later give
to Red Edison.
4.42 Objective: Find some Gold
Your next order of business is to find some gold for the superbattery. Switch
back to Hoagie, and return to the Fireplace Lounge if you are not already
there. Try to pick up the gold pen on Thomas Jefferson's desk. You will then
be plunged into a conversation. By choosing "Whassup? You cold?", "Why don't
you build a fire?" and then any dialog line you will find out that Thomas
won't build a fire unless he has a really good reason. Your next task is to
get a fire built in the fireplace, which you can then use to distract the
founding fathers, allowing you to make off with the pen.
4.421 Objective: Convince Thomas Jefferson that George is cold
Have Hoagie go outside in front of the house and open the mailbox. Grab the
letter inside and send it to Bernard. If you read the letter you will find
out that it was addressed to Benjamin Franklin, praising one of his new
designs. As Bernard return to Dwayne's room and give him the letter. Dwayne
will get really excited and leave the room. Once Dwayne has left pick up the
flag gun on the floor and head down to the room with the fireplace. Switch
the Cigar Salesman's lighter on the desk under the Rubber Chicken poster
with the flag gun. (The Rubber Chicken poster is a reference to THE SECRET
OF MONKEY ISLAND, a hilarious game where you are forced to use a rubber
chicken with a pulley in the middle in one of the puzzles.)
After making the switch talk to the cigar salesman and choose the option "Nice
cigars." and then "Sure, lay one of those Havanan babies on me." If you forgot
to switch the flag gun with the lighter the cigar will blow up in Bernards
face, otherwise you will be able to keep the cigar.
Next, head over to the left side of the room and open up the grate near the
wall. Return to the right of the room, past the salesman and you will see a set
of chattering teeth. You need to get the teeth, but if you get too close they
will quickly scurry away. The trick is to force them over to the left side of
the room and into the hole underneath the grate. Try to keep Bernard between
the teeth and the hole at all times, and eventually they will get stuck. Pick
up the teeth and send the cigar, lighter, and chattering teeth to Hoagie.
Now, once you switched back to playing Hoagie, you can give the exploding cigar
to George Washington. The cigar will explode and knock out his teeth. Give
George the chattering teeth and Thomas Jefferson and John Hancock will build a
fire, convinced that George is cold.
5.422 Objective: Distract the founding fathers so you can steal the gold pen
Now that there is a fire in the fireplace John Hancock will have stopped
complaining and dropped his blanket to the floor. Grab the blanket and head up
to the attic. Climb out the window and onto the roof, where you will see a wisp
of black smoke spirling upwards. Use the blanket over the top of the chimney to
fill the lounge with smoke, leaving Hoagie free to return downstairs and steal
the gold pen.
Now that you have the oil, vinegar, and gold, return to Red Edison's lab and
give him all three items. Once he has finish his creation, pick up the battery
- now to get the battery charged...
4.5 Objective: Charge the Super-battery
4.51 Objective: Get Benjamin Franklin to return inside
In order to get the super-battery charged you need to find Bejamin Franklin
and help him build a kite. As Hoagie, go up to the second floor of the Inn
and enter the first door, into George's Room. Push the bed causing the the
sheets to wrinkle. To summon the maid, pull the cord on the left of the door.
Go out to the hall and swipe the soap from the maid's cart. Head down to the
kitchen and use the bucket with the water pump, and then add the soap to the
mix. If you then return outside you can instigate a storm by using the soapy
water and brush with the old carriage (This puzzle is a little obscure, but
Bernard will make a comment about how it always rains when he washes his car
if you look at the dirty old car in front of the mansion in the PRESENT).
4.52 Objective: Find a suitable material for Ben's kite
If you go upstairs to Ben's room and offer him something he will say "If it's
not a lightweight, waterproof material, I don't want it!" In order to help
Ben out with his new electrical experiment he requires a material for a
lightweight kite. Go back down into Red Edison's lab and switch over to
Bernard. Send the Help Wanted sign to Hoagie and have Hoagie give the sign
to Red Edison. Red will then hire Hoagie as a lab assistant, allowing you to
pick up the lab coat on the wall. With the coat head up to the second floor
and enter Ben's room. Give the lab coat to Benjamin Franklin.
4.53 Objective: Charge the super-battery
Now that you are out on the hill with Benjamin Franklin flying his kite you
have the oportunity to charge up the super-battery. Once Ben leaves the
screen you will have a limited amount of time to 1) put the battery in the
pocket of the kite ("use" battery with kite) and 2)push the kite, before Ben
says "Now". If on the first try you don't manage to attach the battery and
push the kite then you will be given an additional chance (unlimited actually)
to try it again. Once you manage to get the battery and kite into the air a
lightning bolt will strike down, charging the battery. Benjamin Franklin will
take off and you can grab the fully-charged battery from the ground. Finally,
bring the battery over to the outhouses and use it to power Hoagie's
Chron-O-John.
4.6 Objective: Provide power for Laverne's Chron-O-John
4.61 Objective: Get to the basement of the mansion (FUTURE) (distract the
Purple Tentacle Human Catcher)
4.611 Objective: Enter a contestant in the Human Show
In order get down into the basement of the mansion, Laverne must first distract
the Purple Tentacle that is guarding the entrace to the basement by the clock.
As he is a Human Catcher, the only way to distract him is to give him a loose
human to chase! Your next task is to distract the Purple Tentacle Guard so that
Dr. Fred's descendants will try to escape from the prison.
If you talk to the Purple Tentacle Guard, he will try to make a pass at
Laverne, and you will find out that in order to distract him you will require a
ticket toClub Tentacle for a date. Luckily there is a human show going on
upstairs, where the first prize is a ticket to Club Tentacle. As Laverne go
back to the room with the fireplace and talk to the blue tentacle. He will
then give you a human name tag to enter a human in the show.
Now go up to the second floor and enter the second room. Pick up the roller
skates and the red extension cord. Now use the roller skates and the name tag
on the mummy. Push the mummy and it will then roll quickly down the stairs,
allowing you to enter him in the human show. Go all the way upstairs and
continue until you reach the judging floor.
4.612 Objective: Win the human show
4.6121 Objective: Spruce up the mummy
If you talk to the judges in the room to the right, you can ask them to judge
the contestants in each of the three categories: best laugh, best hair and best
smile. In order to win first prize the mummy must win in all three categories.
First, in order to win best laugh you need to send your scalpel to Bernard and
then as Bernard walk to the fireplace room. After using the scalpel with the
clown pick up the box o' laughs and send it to Laverne along with the fork.
Now, to get a smile for the mummy send Bernard's textbook to Hoagie. Hoagie can
then go downstairs and use Bernard's textbook with the horse to put it to
sleep. This will allow him to pick up the horse's dentures from the glass of
water. Send the dentures along with the spaghetti to Laverne.
At this point switch back to Laverne and use the soggy noddles, dentures and
box o' laughs with the mummy. You can then use the fork with the mummy's
head to style his hair.
4.6122 Objective: Get rid of Harold and win the contest
Although at this point Dead Cousin Ted is highly stylish, you still will need
to remove the competition in order to win first prize. Switch back to Bernard
and go upstairs to Green Tentacle's room. Push over the speaker and turn on
Green Tentacle's stereo. This will cause the fake barf stuck to the ceiling
downstairs to unstick itself and fall to the floor. You can now turn off the
stereo and grab the fake barf from downstairs.
Send the barf to Laverne, and have Laverne use it with Harold. This will cause
him to be disqualified from the contest.
Now that Harold is out of the way, you can venture over to the right into the
"highly restricted judging area" and have them judge the three categories.
4.613 Objective: Remove the Purple Tentacle Guard
Now that you have the pass to Club Tentacle go back downstairs to the prison
and give the ticket to the guard. He will immmediately ditch Laverne and take
off.
4.614 Objective: Distract the Purple Tentacle Human Catcher
You now can turn off the switch to free the Edisons, but you will find that
they are less than willing to leave their cell. You can try to convince them
to leave, but it soon becomes obvious that the only thing that will get them
to leave is if they are frieghtened by a skunk.
Switch back to Bernard and pass the Booboo-B-GoneTM to Laverne. Change back to
Laverne and go out the front door to the front yard. You will notice that there
is a stray cat rubbing its back against the fence. Use the Booboo-B-GoneTM with
the fence and it will leave a white streak along the cat's back. Voila! A
skunk-like cat!
Now switch back to Hoagie and head up to the attic of the mansion (use either
the stairs or go through the chimney if you like). Sit (use) Ned's bed (the
squeaky one) and you will be able to distract the cat for a few seconds. Now,
switch the the two mattresses (use the squeaky mattress with Jed's bed to
switch them). Now when you 'use' the squeaky mattress you will have time to
quickly go over and snag the squeaky mouse toy before the cat returns. Take
this opportunity to send the toy to Laverne, and she can use it with the
skunk-like cat on top of the roof of the mansion. Once you have the cat go back
into the kennel.
Perfect! Use the skunk and watch. (This has to be my favorite animated scene in
the entire game).
After the cutscene you are now free to go back to the front hall, open the
grandfather clock and enter the basement...
4.62 Objective: Provide power for the Chron-O-John
Now that you made it to the basement you can use your extension cord to plug
into the crazy machine with the wheel. Obviously you will need to find some
sort of rodent to power the machine.... Anyway, use the other end of the
extension cord with the side window.
4.621 Objective: Find a suitable rodent to power the generator
As Bernard go back upstairs to Weird Ed Edison's room. You may remember
from Maniac Mansion that Weird Ed kept a hamster in his room (which,
depending on your actions in that game, may have had a very unhappy experience
involving a microwave...). Grab Weird Ed's hamster and return down to the
second floor. Nearby the stairs you will find an old ice machine. Open it and
use the hamster with the machine. This will allow a very cold and fozen hamster
to appear in the future.
Switch back to Laverne and climb up to the second floor. Open the ice machine
and pick up the frozen hamster. You will now need to dethaw the hamster, so
head downstairs to the kitchen (door to the left of the fireplace) and use the
hamster in the microwave.
Unfortunately the hamster will be still too cold and wet to have any
motivation required to power the machine in the basement, so you will need to
find something warm to heat him up.
As Laverne go through the door to the right into the laundry room and switch
back to Bernard. Now go into the first door on the second floor - if you close
the door you will find some keys which you can then take outside and give to
the man in the ski mask. He will thank you and then drop his crowbar which he
was perstiently using to try and break into an old car. Now return to the front
hall and use the crowbar with the piece of gum stuck on the floor. To remove
the gum 'use' the gum with the dime stuck in it and Bernard will chew the gum
and remove the dime.
Return the first room on the second floor and use both of the dimes you now
have in the FickleFinger coin slot. This will cause the room occupant to
shift off the bed and onto the floor. Pick up the uncovered (soaking wet)
sweater.
Now that you have the sweater you need to find a way to send it to Laverne in
the future and shrink it at the same time. Go back to the hallway and use the
crowbar with the candy machine to get a whole pile of quarters.
Now that you have a ton of quarters, go downstairs to the laundry room and use
the sweater and quarters in the dryer. Switching back to Laverne you will find
that the sweater is done and is now a perfect hamster size! Using the sweater
with the hamster you can now return to the hotel basement and put the hamster
on the generator wheel.
Unfortunately you will now find that the hamster ran off into a mouse hole,
so you will need to find a way to get him back. Switch to Bernard and send
the vacuum cleaner flier to Hoagie. As Hoagie use the flier in the suggestion
box found in the middle of the Fireplace Lounge. After some discussion it
will now be part of the American constitution that every Amercian should
have a vacuum cleaner in their basement.
Now as Laverne, use the "U-SUCK" built-in shop vac with the mouse hole, open
the hatch on the shop vac and pick up the dust ball. Using the dusty warm
hamster on the generator you will be able power the Chron-O-John without any
further delays. Go back outside and use the extension cord with the plug for
the Chron-O-John.
4.7 Objective: Find a diamond for the time machine
Now that you have been able to power both Hoagie and Laverne's Chron-O-Johns,
you need to aquire a new diamond for Dr. Fred's time machine. As Bernard, if
you return to the fat man's room and turn on the television you will see an
add for a perfect diamond. Unfortunately, you will need to acquire some
funds...
4.71 Objective: Acquire funds to obtain an outrageously expensive diamond
4.711 Objective: Get the contract from Dr. Fred's safe
You can now go back downstairs and use Dr. Fred's phone in his office. After
finding out that Dr. Fred doesn't have enough funds to purchase the diamond,
you can go and talk to Doctor Fred. By following the below dialog options you
will discover that Dr. Fred is in possesion of a contract that could
potentially provide you with enough currency to purchase the diamond you need.
"We have to do SOMETHING!"
"Why can't we just fix the time machine?"
"I thought you were rich!"
"What contract?"
"Let's go get the contract out of the safe and sign it!"
At this point you can now stop talking to Doctor Fred. You need to get the
contract, but unfortunately Dr. Fred will not give it to your freely. You must
first force him to fall asleep so that he can open the safe in a state of
sleep walking.
Go the front hall and through the double doors, and into the kitchen. Pick up
the decaf and regular coffee, and then pass through the door into the laundry
room. Open the cabinet and pick up the funnel. You can now return to the
basement and use the decaf coffee with Dr. Fred's mug.
Switch to Hoagie and go up to the third floor, entering the room opposite from
the horse. Choose any of the dialog options and then replace the left-handed
hammer with the right-handed hammer. After a longish cutscene, in which it is
revealed that the statue in the surveyance room is altered, you can switch back
to Bernard. Go up to the third floor and enter the room on the left. You now
have the opportunity to push Nurse Edna,and as the statue was altered she will
not be able to stop herself from being knocked down the stairs.
Remember kids, "If you want to save the world, you got to push a few old ladies
down the stairs."
Now that you have the room to yourself, use the videotape in the VCR and look
at the monitor. Press the red record button and you will be able to record the
combination of the safe. In order to see the combo correctly, rewind the tape
and switch the VCR from SP to EP (slow motion). This will allow you to read
the combination (101 999 57). Eject the tape and return to Doctor Fred's
office where you can now open the safe and pick up the contract.
4.712 Objective: Get Dr. Fred to sign the contract
Unfortunately, unless you get Dr. Fred's signature the contract is useless, so
the first order of business is to free Dr. Fred from the attic. In order to
free Dr. Fred, you will need to replace his body with something else, so that
the IRS doesn't know the difference...
Go to the Fireplace Lounge and head up the chimney. Enter the window and pick
up the rope off Doctor Fred. Go back out onto the roof and use the rope with
the pulley above the window. Now climb down the chimney and go outside to front
yard. Switch to Hoagie and send Bernard the red paint. Back as Bernard, use the
red paint on the mummy (Dead Cousin Ted). You can now use the dangling rope
with Dead Cousin Ted, go back up to the roof using the chimney, and pull the
rope. Back on the ground you will need to return to the attic and use Ted with
Doctor Fred, after which will follow a fairly humourous scene.
You can now use the rope with Doctor Fred, go back out to the roof and pull on
the rope. Back on the ground use the funnel with Doctor Fred and use the
regular coffee with the funnel - that should wake him up!
Now that Doctor Fred is again safe and himself, you need to talk to him in
order to get his signature. Choose the following lines of dialog -
"Oh, forget it. I'll get rid of Purple Tentacle myself!"
"I'm starting up a petition to ban all tentacles."
4.713 Objective: Mail the contract
Now that you have the contract with Dr. Fred's signature, you need to return to
Weird Ed's room to get a stamp. Use the disappearing ink on his stamp album
which will really tick him off... Out in the hallway, pick up the stamp and
stamp album and then go back inside and give the stamp album to Weird Ed.
<
Ed's computer>>
Now that you have the contract and a stamp, send them both to Hoagie and have
him use the stamp with the contract and use the contract with the mailbox
outside the mansion. This will trigger a cutscene in the PRESENT, in which
LucasArts awards Dr. Fred a whole pile of money for the use of his family in a
video game... go figure.
4.72 Objective: Purchase the Diamond
Anyway, at this point I would recommend switching back to Bernard, going back
into Dr. Fred's office, saving the game, and going to sleep, as it is now 1:30
in the morning and I could really use some sleep...
Okay, seriously, in Dr. Fred's office you can now use the phone, which will
then lead to a very long and exciting cutscene (refer to 8.8 The Climax).
4.8 Objective: Save the World!
4.81 Objective: Make it to Dr. Fred's Lab
When you once again have control of the characters, you will find yourself in
the fat tenant's room, hidding from Purple Tentacle. Go back out into the
hallway and open the middle doorway, into Dwayne's Room. Most likely you will
be stopped after this and shrunk again. If you didn't manage to open the door
in time then wait to you regrow and then open the door. Wait till your shrunk
again then go inside. If you managed to open the door the first time then enter
the room after you are shrunk. The idea here is to enter Dwayne's Room while
you are small so that you can quickly walk through the mouse hole in the back
of the room, into Green Tentacle's room.
Once your resize pick up the bowling ball and return to the hallway, where you
will find that Purple Tentacle has suddenly vanished...
You can now head downstairs to the lab.
4.82 Objective: Destroy Purple Tentacle and turn off the Sludge-O-MaticTM
In Dr. Fred's lab you will find an army of Purple Tentacles lined up in a V
pattern in front of the Sludge-O-MaticTM. Use the bowling ball with the
tentacles and watch them fly!
At this point you are really near the end of the game, and must come up with a
way to outsmart Purple Tentacle. Talk to him, and by using the following dialog
choices you will spell his doom...
"Just what is it you have against humans, anyway?"
"Sounds like that's all Dr. Fred's fault, really."
"You're pretty handy with that ray gun."
"Why don't you zap Dr. Fred if you hate him so much?"
Congratulations! You have now successfully completed The Day of the Tentacle.
You can now sit back and enjoy the final cutscene, epilogue and end credits,
satisfied that the world is tentacle-ridden and everything is back to normal.

| |
| Laverne: Laverne's speciality is human anatomy. Laverne also lives with |
| Bernard and Hoagie and willingly comes along on this adventure, |

| |
| Doctor Fred: Doctor Fred is the inventer of Purple and Green Tentacle in |
| the original MANIAC MANSION. Although thought to be quite |
| evil it turned out that he was actually being controlled by a |

| |
| Purple Tentacle: One of Doctor Fred's ingenious creations, Purple Tentacle |
| is the main antagonist in DOTT. Once truly harmless, |
| Purple Tentacle drank some toxic waste from Dr. Fred's |
| Sludge-O-Matic TM machine, making it possible for him to |
| realize his insanely genious plans of world domination! |

L: Look, Hoagie, it's a hamster!
Just what I need for dissection lab tomorrow!
H: I think I need that for the band, Laverne...
...you know, like we could bite its head off or whatever.
B: Hands off that hamster!
L: Friend of yours, Benard?
B: He belongs to Weird Ed Edison!
And it looks like he's brought us a note!
it's from my old friend green tentacle...
He says that Purple Tentacle's mutated into an insane genius...
...and Doctor Fred's going to kill them both!
i thought i was free of Doctor Fred and those crazy edisons forever.
But now i know that i must go...
BACK...
...TO THE MANSION!
Mansion Front Hall
------------------
B: Okay, we'll spread out, commando-style...
Laverne, you go secure the area behind those double doors.
Hoagie, you take care of upstairs reconnaissance.
I'll maintain command H.Q. here in the lobby.
L: What are we looking for?
B: We've got to find where Doctor Fred is holding the tentacles.
L: This better not take too long.
I've got an anatomy final tomorrow!
H: And I've got a show to set up later tonight.
If I'm late, I don't get to test the drums.
B: If I know Doctor Fred...
...he's got the tentacles tied up in his secret lab...
Question is...
Where's his secret lab?

B: Ah-ha!
A secret passage!
This is all too easy!
Upstairs Hallway (2nd floor)
----------------------------
H: Laverne!
How'd you get upstairs?
L: Am I upstairs?
I got lost.
H: Seen any tentacles?
L: What's a tentacle?
DF: Oh, just something I whipped up in my spare time.
Made good pets, actually...
...until one of them tried to take over the world.
Had to tie the little buggers up in the basement.
L: Good thing you told us that.
H: Yeah, Benard wanted us to set them free!
DF: Thank God you weren't THAT stupid.
Did you say BERNARD?!?
Basement Secret Lab
-------------------
B: Okay, you're free to go!
GT: Thanks, Bernard!
PT: Yes, thank you, naive human!
Now I can finish TAKING OVER THE WORLD!
Ha ha ha!
GT: Wait!
B: Oh, yeah.
Now I remember.
He's incredibly evil, isn't he?
GT: Uh...
I'll try to talk him out of it.
B: Well, what possible harm could one insane, mutant tentacle do?
--click--
DF: Leaping labrats!
B: Doctor Fred!
DF: What have you done this time, you meddling milquetoast?
Now Purple Tentacle is free to use his evil mutant powers to take over the
world...
...and ENSLAVE ALL HUMANITY!
B: Whoops.
DF: Our only hope now is to turn off my Sludge-O-Matic TM machine...
...and prevent the toxic mutagen from entering the river!
B: Isn't it a little late for that, Doctor?
DF: Of course!
That's why I'll have to do it...
...YESTERDAY!
To the time machine!
Time Machine (Basement Secret Lab)
----------------------------------
L: This is all your fault, Bernard.
DF: Behold, children: The Chron-O-John!
H: Doc, can't you just send Bernard?
DF: No, you must all go, to increase the odds that one of you will make it
there alive!
B: Have any people ever been hurt in this thing?
DF: Of course not!
This is the first time I've ever tried it on PEOPLE!
Well, I'll be.
Stuck in the Space-Time Continuum
---------------------------------
H: Bernard, float over here so I can punch you.
L: This must be that Woodstock place Mom and Dad are always talking about!
H: What could it all mean?
B: I don't know!
I don't wanna know!
NE: Yeeeheehee!
PT(old): Hahahahahaha...
DIE! HAHAHA!
DIE!...
H: We may not live to see yesterday!
B: I'm sure Doctor Fred wouldn't have done this if it weren't safe.
L: After all, he IS a doctor!
Time Machine (Basement Secret Lab)
----------------------------------
DF: It works!
I can't believe it!
And they said imitation diamond wasn't good enough!
Uh-oh.
...
Back in the Present, Doctor Fred's Secret Lab
---------------------------------------------
DF: Cheap mail-order jewels!
B: What happened to Hoagie and Laverne!?
DF: I KNEW I should have bought a REAL diamond!
B: Are they alive?
DF: My dials say that the larger specimen landed two hundred years in the
past...
...and the other is stuck two hundred years in the future!
B: Well, hurry up and bring them back!
DF: I will, as soon as I get a new diamond!
Then all your buddies have to do is plug in their respective Chron-O-Johns
and--
B: Plug them in?!?
Where is Hoagie going to find an electrical outlet TWO HUNDRED YEARS IN THE
PAST!?!
DF: Yes... well...
He'll be needing my patented super-battery then, won't he?
Now, where did I put those patented super-battery plans of mine?
B: Plans? How are we going to get Hoagie PLANS?
Don't worry me with details, boy!
Just help me find the plans!
They're in this house somewhere!
B: Now what am I going to do?
DF: I think I made myself perfectly clear...
Step One: Find Plans.
Step Two: Save World.
Step Three: Get Out of My House!
Let's get crackin'!
...
Maybe I put them upstairs...
...that's got to be it! Upstairs!

-----------------
B: I've got the plans!
DF: Quick! We have to flush them to Hoagie!
B: How'd you get over there?
DF: My ingenious super-battery design, please.
B: You really flushed them!
DF: Yes!!!
B: Down the toilet!
DF: No!
Through TIME!
Using the highly sophisticated Time-Flux Hydraulic Vortex Chamber I've
installed in each Chron-O-John...
You can flush small, inanimate objects to each other through time!

L: Hello!
Dr. Fred?
Can you hear me?

DF: No.
Let's see if What's-his-name catches on.
200 years in the past: Outhouses
--------------------------------
H: Oh, great.
I'm stuck in colonial times, tentacles are taking over the world, and now the
toilet's backing up.
DF:Hoagie...
...come over here...
It's your old pal Doctor Fred.
H: Doctor Fred? How'd you get in there?
DF:I want you to pick up those plans you see in the Chron-O-John, Hoagie.
Bring them to RED Edision.
He's my great, great, great, great...
...great, great, great...
Present: Doctor Fred's Lab
--------------------------
...great, great, great grandfather.
He'll know what to do.
B: You need the plans to make a super-battery, so you can plug in your Chron-O-
John!
H:Okay, if you say so, Bernard.
DF: Good boy.
Does he have any experience with electronics?
B: Uh... I once saw him take three-thousand volts directly through his head
without batting an eye.
DF: Didn't he pass out?
B: Well, he was already passed out when it happened.
200 years in the past: Outhouses
--------------------------------
H: Time for me to save the world, I guess.

---------------
GW: Voila.
H: You're quite a man.
GW: Yes, I know.
H: Excuse me.
GW: Yes?
H: Mr. President, may I offer you an excellent smoke?
GW: Can you also provide me with a light?
H: Sure.
GW: Well, in that case...
GW: Blast.
I hate it when that happens.
See if you can find those for me, will you?
There's a good lad.
H: Could you use these?
GW: Why, thank you, young man.
Strange...
...I wonder if I should cut down on the coffee?
JH: Hey, Tom. Look.
The father of our nation is cold.
Better build a fire.
TJ: You're right.
*sigh*
I guess you can have my log.
JH: Me? Why should I build the fire?
You build the fire.
TJ: I'm bothered by the smoke.
You build the fire.
JH: I'm bothered by your attitude!
You build the fire!
TJ: No, YOU build the fire, Mr. Penmanship!
JH: No, YOU build the fire, log lover!
TJ: No, YOU build the fire!
JH: No, YOU build the fire!
TJ: FIRE!!!
GW: OK...
...who was the idiot who started the fire?
...
GW: It looks pretty clear in here now.
Say, did you get the pen on our way out?
JH: No, I --
TJ: I found a blanket blocking the chimney.
GW: Son, do you know anything about a blanket?
H: Uh, didn't the dude next to you have one earlier?
JH: Err...
H: Uh...
Hey, catch you later.
H: *ahem*
BOY, IT's SURE QUIET IN HERE.
I WONDER IF THERE MIGHT BE ANY IDEAS WORTH DISCUSSING IN THE SUGGESTION BOX?
MAYBE SOMEBODY SHOULD TAKE A LOOK.
GW: I say, lads, I have an idea.
JH: D-d-does it have anything to do with starting a f-f-fire?
GW: No.
I was thinking it's about time we opened the suggestion box.
Don't you agree?
JH: S-sure George.
If you s-s-say so.
TJ: Yes, whatever you think is fine with us.
GW: Excellent!
JH: What's he th-thinking?
N-n-no one of any importance has b-been here all day.
What c-c-could be in the s-suggestion box?
TJ: Perhaps he intends to suggest something himself.
JH: Oh.
GW: Ah, here's a suggestion.
It says: "George says that every American should have a vacuum cleaner in their
basement!"
What do you think, gentlemen?
TJ: Hmmm...
whatever you say, George.
JH: Your n-name's on it...I'm sure you m-m-must have a good reason f-for
suggesting it.
GW: Yes...
It's strange...
...I don't quite...
...well, I'm sure I had a reason for it.
If there are no objections, we shall add it to the constitution immediately!
No?
Good!
And so shall it be law.
JH: What's a "vacuum cleaner"?

Looks like a big storm.
See, this is why I never wash my car.
Hey, Ben!
BF: Oh, it's you.
H: Where are you going?
What about your experiment?
BF: Even science sometimes gets called on account of rain, my boy!
H: But how're you ever gonna get lightning if you're not gonna stand out in a
storm?
BF: To be frank, which I am, I don't know.
The science of electrodynamics...
...much like your mind, apparently...
...is still in a state of relative infancy.
Back to the drawing board, I say!
H: What a genius.

H: I got something good for ya, Mister...
...uh, Mister...
BF: Mr. Brainstorm?
Yes, hand it over.
Hmmm...
Doesn't this belong to somebody?
Yeah, Red Edison.
Ah.

Ready to make history!

--------------------
BF: No, there's no fuse.
H: So what do I light?
BF: For the last time, you're not going to light anything!
You just push it!
H: The whole time?
How am I going to get up that high?
BF: Listen, just wait for me to say the word, "Now"...
...then push the kite into the air.
All right?
H: I'm on ya, lasagna.
BF: Let's hope so.
...
NOW!
H: Wheeeee.
BF: She's handling kinda funny...
H: You got it...
...just hang on there.
BF: She's too heavy.
I can't control her!
H: Hang on, Ben. Hang on!
BF: She's breaking up!
She's breaking up!
Run for you life!
Later that day...
BF: Now THAT was interesting!
Yeah...
Say, can I see that kite for a second?
BF: No! I'm taking it back to my lab in Philly right now, so I can study the
results!
Wish me luck!
I never got your name!
H: It's Hoagie, sir.
BF: Nice working with you, Hoagie.
I promise to name an invention after you someday.

Question is, which one's stuffed...
...and which one's the real McCoy?
N(guy initially on left): I assure you that we are both real, but we are
neither one of us McCoys.
We are Edisons: Ned and Jed.
Who's who?
N: Does it really matter?
Even our dear father can't tell us apart.
He only knows that one of us is left-handed, while the other is right...
...but that neither of us are following in his tiny, scientific footsteps.
J: --mmpflr!--
N: Hold STILL, Jed!
So...
I'm almost too frightened to ask...
Are you the marble deliveryman...
...or the model?
N: Oh, no!
I've lost it!
O! Where hath gone the muse that once guided my hand with such care?
Must inspiration be so transitory?
Must art be so cruel?
I'm a failure.
J: Don't say that, Ned!
N: Father was right.
We Edisons are made to be scientists, not artists.
J: Dear brother...
We must be strong in these times of creative adversity.
Why don't you let me take over for a while.
I'll clean up this rubble and start over.
You relax...
...have a cappuccino.
I'm glad we switched places.
I think you're coming out quite well.

you?
You'd be out in the lobby with your tentacle owner, getting dressed up for the

Well, don't worry about it.

tentacle with the big net?
If we ran off, he'd be right on our trail!
If we stay here we know we'll be warm and comfortable.
Outside we'd be eating bugs and moss.

Looks like a prosthetic rodent!
Another specimen!
9.64 The Human Show
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Front Hall
----------
PTHC: Well, that's the spirit!
Everyone's raring to go!
Let's get this show on the road!
HD: Ah, here it comes...
...my finest hour!
The Human Show (3rd Floor):
---------------------------
L: Hey, when are you guys going to judge Best Hair?
LGTJ: Oh, all right!
PTJ: Wow! For a mummy, that's some great looking hair!
LGTJ: Yes, it has a certain...
...MEATINESS.
DGTJ: But does it have stars and lightning bolts?
PTJ: No. Harold is still the best.
LGTJ: But if Harold were to, say... DROP DEAD, I'd give first place to the
mummy.
DGTJ: Agreed!
L: OH! HAROLD!
That's gross!
HD: What are you babbling about?
L: You really should have told the JUDGES...
...if you WEREN'T FEELING WELL.
HD: Oh, ick!
Now, how did that mess get there?
I think I'm going to be sick!
PTD: Someone in here not feeling well?
HD: I WAS feeling fine...
...until I saw that.
PTD: Is that your regurgitation?
HD: No! I'm a healthy human!
PTD: Didn't you just say you thought you were going to be sick?
HD: That's just a figure of speech--
PTD: Do you realize you could have infected the whole show with human
influenza?
HD: But I just... got... all... my... shots!
PTD: You're a good-looking human, Harold, but you know the rules.
You're out of the show.
What a mess..
I hate cleaning up after humans.
L: Hey, don't you think you should judge Best Hair again?
LGTJ: Oh, all right!
PTJ: Wow! That's the best hair I've ever seen on a mummy.
DGTJ: Thick and full...
LGTJ: ...and JUICY!
PTJ: The mummy wins!
DGTJ: Agreed!
L: Hey, when are you guys going to judge Best Smile?
LGTJ: Oh, all right!
GTJ: I like the quiet one with the big teeth.
DGTJ: There's nothing in the rules about them being WHITE...
LGTJ: First Place goes to the mummy!
DGTJ: Agreed!
L: Hey, when are you guys going to judge Best Laugh?
LGTJ: Oh, all right!
PTJ: Okay, who's got a joke?
LGTJ: Hey, I just flew in from Baltimore...
...and boy are my suction cups tired!
PTJ: Ha ha ha!
DGTJ: A classic.
M: Ha Ha Ha
PTJ: It's amazing how the mummy can do that without moving his lips.
LGTJ: I say we give him first place!
DGTJ: Agreed!
LGTJ: Well, that makes him BEST OF SHOW!
PTJ: Let's go congratulate him!
DGTJ: He IS very well preserved...
LGTJ: I'll miss his laugh...
PTJ: It's time to give him his winnings and start packing up.
We gotta get this whole show to Baltimore by Thursday.
DGTJ: Yes, our work here is done.
L: Well, Ted, this is where we we part ways.
You've certainly helped save humanity.
Even though you've been dead for thousands of years...
...I think you're my...
*sniff*
...favorite Edison.
9.65 Meanwhile...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Purple Tentacle Control Room (FUTURE):
Meanwhile...
PT: Lieutenant, I want to ask you something.
It may trouble you.
GTL: Ask away, sir.
I can take it.
I've got a strong stomach.
Nerves of steel.
Bowels of brass.
Suckers of --
PT: Can it, son, this is important.
Have any of your friends seemed a bit...
FIRM, lately?
GTL: Ew, ick.
You mean like, non-squishy and non-slimy?
PT: That's right.
Come closer.
I have recently become suspicious that HUMANS might try to infiltrate us.
GTL: No.
PT: Though basically stupid, they can be tricky.
They may be in disguise...
Meanwhile...
PT: Tell me Lieutenant, how do you REALLY feel about humans?
GTL: Honestly, sir?
I think they're filthy.
Obscene.
Foul.
Sickening.
Like the stuff in your eyes when you wake up.
Like the wax that builds up behind your suction cups after a few days.
Like...
PT: That's enough, son.
I just wanted to make sure you weren't one of those humanist sympathizers.
What with this ridiculous "human show" going on here there's humophiles
everywhre.
GTL: I'm no humophile, sir.
PT: That's good.
Now let me tell you about a little plan I have...
Meanwhile...
GTL: Ahem.
PT: Ah, Lieutenant, I'm glad you're here.
What kept you?
GTL: Errr...
Well, I hate to say it sir, but there was some trouble with one of the humans.
PT: Trouble?
What sort of trouble?
GTL: Nothing I couldn't handle, but I've noticed something about the humans
that may pose a problem.
PT: Do continue.
GTL: Well sir, in general they seem to be a bit...
...LARGER than us tentacles.
You know, taller.
Heftier.
More massive.
PT: I get the picture, son.
GTL: I don't mean to carry on, sir, it's just that i makes me feel...
...inadequate.
Small.
Inferior.
Out of control of--
PT: Before you go off the deep end there, let me tell you why I called you
here.
You see, I've invented something which will end our troubles with those
glandular leg-walkers for good.
I've invented...
...the Diminuator!
GTL: The what?
PT: It's a SHRINKING ray, dolt.
GTL: Oh, I get it!
PT: Now, I need you to get me a few parts so I can finish the thing.
Come over here.
Meanwhile...
PT: Well, errr, young tentacle...
...what have you got to report?
GTL: I've found the piece you needed, sir.
PT: Excellent!
The human race shall soon be as puny as their intellects!
GTL: Have the prisoners been keeping intellects as pets again?
I'll have to reprimand them!
PT: That's INSECTS, you buffoon!
Anyway, we have more important things to think about.
GTL: I once read that humans were descended from buffoons.
PT: THAT'S--
...never mind. I need your help with another matter.
Come closer, I'm about to reveal my MASTER PLAN!
It begins two hundred years in our past...
Meanwhile...
GTL: I got the frabomatic gizmo for you, sir...
PT: You mean the high-frequency frabjistatic generator?
GTL: ...yes, that one.
But I'm having troubles locating the numo-whatsis.
PT: The pneumo-eletric de-amplifier.
You might try that old abandoned lab in the basement.
It's hardly been touched in two hundred years.
GTL: Yes, sir.
PT: The Diminuator will be my crowning success!
With it I will be able to shrink the entire human race out of sight!
BWAHAHAHAHA!!
9.71 Bernard's Exploits: Doctor Fred's Lab
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B: So, as soon as Hoagie gets that battery working we're set!
DF: I'm afraid not.
We still need a diamond for the main unit!
And your friend in the future needs power too..
If she's still alive.
B: Alive?
200 years in the future : Chron-O-John (stuck in a tree)
--------------------------------------------------------
L: Get me out of here!
I like trees and everything, but this one has got to go!!!
D: It's useless.
No one will ever be interested in my designs.
So I'm ending my novelty inventing career right here in this tacky motel.
How appropriate.
*sigh*
I can't even do THIS right...
B: Hey, there's a letter here for you.
D: For me??
Probably another rejection slip.
Oh, well.
"You're brilliant. What a novel design. Come to Baltimore at once."
9.73 Bernard's Exploits: Random Locations
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Green Tentacle's Room
---------------------
B: Green!
GT: Bernard!
B: What are you doing up here?
GT: Well, I couldn't stop Purple, and he's going to go out and conquer the
world, and I'm afraid of what he'll do if he catches me, if Dr.Fred doesn't
find me first.
Uh...
Does that answer your question?
B: Yeah.
Hey!
GT: What's up, Bernard?
Outside
-------
B: Here, perhaps these are your keys.
MM: Where?
Gimme!
Hey, thanks pal.
Keep the crowbar.
B: Thank you, masked man.
MM: Drat.
Maybe this one.
It must be one of these.
What sort of person would carry around this many keys?
Surveillance Room
-----------------
B: Well you know what they say...
"If you want to save the world, you got to push a few old ladies down the
stairs."
Fireplace Lounge
----------------
CS: Hey, boy, you missed the party!
B: You and the clown were having a party?
CS: No, no. Last night!
At the novelty goods salesmen's convention!
I tell you, we novelty goods salesmen know how to have a good time.
9.74 Bernard's Exploits: Weird Ed Edison's Room
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B: Hey, aren't you Weird Ed Edison, the paramilitary nut?
Why yes, I--
Hey! Do I know you?
B: Yeah! I'm Bernard Bernoulli
I broke into your house five years ago...
...kidnapped your hamster, broke into your piggy bank...
Hmmm... Nope.
Doesn't ring a bell, but I can't remember much about that period anyway.
My psychotherapist thinks something traumatic happed to me back then that I'm
blocking out.
B: Hey, wanna see a neat trick?
WE: Sure!
B: Neat, huh?
Uh...
WE: My pony express stamps!
You ruined my pony express stamps!
Not to mention five years of therapy!
GET OUT OF MY ROOM!!!
B: Geeze! What a grump!
He should really try to find some outlet for those--
...negative feelings.
WE: Hey! You fixed it.
I guess I can forgive you now.
B: Sometimes I do stupid stuff, and I don't even know why...
...as if my body were being controlled by some demented, sadistic
puppet-master...
WE: Well, we all feel that way sometimes.
9.75 Attaining the Diamond
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sleeping Man's Room (TV)
------------------------
A: This beauuutiful four-thousand carat diamond can be yours today...
...for the special rock-bottom introductory price of two million dollars.
The number to call is 1-800-STAR-WARS.
Don't miss this amazing once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Doctor Fred's Office
--------------------
W: Couch Potato Shopping Channel, Wanda speaking.
B: Uh, I want to buy a diamond.
W: That will be two million dollars.
Do you have a major credit card?
B: Umm, I have a numbered Swiss bank account.
W: What's the number, sir?
B: Uh...
It's 846-427-35327.
W: I'm sorry, the Cred-O-Tron shows that account to be empty.
*click*
Doctor Fred's Lab
-----------------
B: I thought you were rich!
DF: Well...
I didn't get all the money I expected from that TV show about us.
We've had to rent out our mansion as a hotel just to make ends meet.
(sigh)
If only I had signed that contract in time...
B: What contract?
DF: Well, after that incident where I was possessed by a meteor from outer
space...
Somebody decided to make a show about us...
But they didn't pay us anything!
All we got was a cut of the video game.
B: Wow. That thing made millions!
DF: Yeah. I forgot to sign the royalty contract in time though.
I still have it in my safe upstairs.
B: Let's go get the contract out of the safe and sign it!
DF: I forgot the combination!
B: But that's...
...that's so STUPID, Doctor Fred!
DF: I know. It gives my enormous brain nightmares.
Every night I dream about opening the safe.
...but I find something horrible inside and slam it shut...
...over and over again, night after night.
B: Is that why you drink so much coffee?
DF: I haven't slept in two years.
B: I got the contract for you to sign, Doctor!
DF: Sorry, I don't like to sign things I haven't read.
Doctor Fred's Office
--------------------
rrrring rrrring
rrrring rrrring
DF: Yeah, what do you want?
FK: Hi there?
Is this Dr. Fred Edison?
DF: Who did you think you called?
Dr. Spock?
Look, I don't have all day.
FK: This is Farley Krock at LucasArts Games.
I just discovered your contract among some very old files.
And, well, our lawyers say that we, uh...
...have to pay you two million dollars in back royalties.
Uh, for the use of your family in the Maniac Mansion video game.
DF: WHAT!
FK: This is Farley Kro--
DF: No, I heard that, you MORON.
When do I get my MONEY?!?'
FK: Oh, right now.
It's been credited to your Swiss bank account.
DF: Operator!
Get me a travel agent!
This is an emergency!
9.76 Bernard encounters the IRS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Doctor Fred's Office (seen through the surveillance camera)
-----------------------------------------------------------
IRS: Dr. Fred Edison?
Internal Revenue.
Come with us.
We'd like to go over some of your records with you...
...upstairs.
Attic
-----
IRS:Hmm.
Thought I heard something.
Everything OK in there?
Well, try to keep it down, OK?
B: Uh-oh.
IRS: Hey!
Where'd he go?
Ah, there you are.
I can see this bed through the peephole, you know.
B: Uh-oh.
IRS: Hey!
Very funny.
I can see this bed through the peephole, you know.
B: Uh-oh.
IRS: Hey!
Fun and games, Doctor?
Just lie there and take it like a man.
B: Uh-oh.
IRS: Hey!
On the floor again, eh?
Oh, by the way...
...capital gains taxes apply even if you spell your name in lower case on the
form.
IRS: Did you say you have a PP-41 Facilities Paraphernalia Declaration over
there?
IRS2: Nope.
IRS: What did you say your wife's name was again?
IRS2: Sandy.
IRS: Oh yeah.
How do you suppose the Dodgers are doing?
IRS2: Well, their win/loss ratio is 28 percent below normal...
...however, the successful slide margin is actually up 3 points since May.
I've noticed that they seem to do well with a man on first after a fly ball
when the opposing pitcher is left-handed and wearing a green hat.
IRS: Fascinating.
Say, what's the filing date for a BFD-206/ZZ Insufficent Credit Applications
Form?
IRS2: You have until midnight on the twelfth working day past the first full
moon after the end of your fiscal year.
However, you can extend the date by filing an RPM-78 Waning Interest Extension
anytime before the close of business on the second Tuesday after the first
Friday in March.
And of course, if you're married, you'd also have to file the K-7209 Statement
of Joint Intentions and declare any mutual gift expenditures.
IRS: Oh yeah, that's right.
Is that a W-390/B Frivolous Spending Report?
IRS2: No, it's another 561-AB Negative Attention Statement.
IRS: Ah.

B: Umm, I have a numbered Swiss bank account.
W: What's the number, sir?
B: Uh...
It's 846-427-35327.
W: Very good, sir.
We'll send the diamond by Pronto Post Light-Speed Delivery immediately.
Thank you for calling.
*ding dong*
B: Now that's service...
I'd better get this to Dr. Fred right away!
DF: That should do it!
Where did you get this diamond, anyway?
B: Ah...
...it was donated by a group of Girl Scouts who were in the neighborhood.
DF: How heartwarming.
According to my instruments, everything is in readiness!
Your friends have activated their units, so it's time to...
THROW THE SWITCH!
B: Great!
Hoagie!
I'm so happy to--
L: Hi!
B: Laverne!
Wow!
I'm so glad you two made it back ok!
DF: I hate to interrupt, but there's no time to lose!
Now that you're back, we've got to proceed with the original plan and send you
back to yesterday to turn off the Sludge-O-MaticTM.
H: Huh?
L: Say WHAT?!?!
B: Now, hold on a minute, Dr. Fred.
They just barely made it back to our time alive, and I think--
PT: HaHA!
You can't turn off the machine if I get there FIRST!
L: Uh-oh.
GT: Don't worry guys!
This time I KNOW I can stop him!
B: Uh-oh.
I guess we'd better do something.
L: Let's go!
DF: NO, WAIT!
You can't all go in the same stall!
Didn't you see "The Fly"?!?
Outside the Mansion
-------------------
L: We're...
B: ...we're...
H: We're some kinda monster, dudes.
L: Great.
Stuck here the rest of my life...
...listening to Bernard talking and watching Hoagie eat.
Mom warned me there'd be days like this.
B: Now, wait just a minute--
GT: mts pmpl tmpcl
B: It's Green Tentacle!
What was that, Green?
GT: PMPL TMPCL G BHND J!!
B: What?
PT: I believe he's trying to warn you about ME.
B: ...oh...
L: We're going to turn off the Sludge-O-MaticTM and defeat your evil plans, you
overgrown WORM.
PT: You sorry lot are no match for ME!
B: But there's THREE of us--
--well, sort of!
PT: Nevertheless, I mean to crush you.
L: Yeah?
B: You and what army?
PT: Why, THIS army, of course.
L: ...yikes...
PT: You see, I've been busy.
These are all versions of myself from the future.
I've been bringing them back here using the Chron-O-John.
Together, we will CONQUER THE WORLD!!
You ten there!
Go to the basement and guard the Sludge-O-MaticTM.
No one is to touch the Sludge-O-MaticTM.
Now, creature, I must decide what excruciating tortures to--
PTFV: Leave them to me!
I've been itching for a chance to test out my newly completed DIMINUATOR!
L: Uh, oh.
B: Excuse me, uh, us.
PTFV: BWAHAHAHA!!
PT: All right, the rest of you come with me!
Next stop...
...THE WORLD!
The Front Hall

B: What do we do NOW?
H: Whoa!
L: It wears off!
PTFV: Ah HAH!
B: Run for it!
PTFV: Damn!
The battery must not have had time to recharge...
...but it will!
Sleeping Man's Room
-------------------
B: Shh!
Maybe he won't find us.
PTFV: Yoohoo!
Where are you, human?
Doctor Fred's Lab
-----------------
B: Great.
Now we can turn off the machine and prevent all this tentacle mayhem from ever
happening.
L: Well, I'm certainly glad THAT'S over with.
B: Yeah, Let's get out of here.
PTFV: Leaving so soon?
We haven't had the chance to get to KNOW one another.
You humans are so SHORT-sighted.
HAAAhahahaha!
B: eek!
PTFV: Run all you like, you insignificant insect!
The human race is doomed!
You can't stop me!
B: Just what is it you have against humans, anyway?
PTFV: Humans are our oppressors!
They made us live in this horrible motel!
They created us in ungainly forms so we could not rise against them!
Try walking around with your legs tied together and glue on your shoes, you'll
see what I mean.
B: Sounds like that's all Dr. Fred's fault, really.
PTFV: Hmmm.
I suppose you're right about that.
I didn't start out hating ALL humans, just Dr. Fred.
B: You're pretty handy with that ray gun.
PTFV: Center of the forehead, every time.
Would you like a demonstration?
B: Why don't you zap Dr. Fred if you hate him so much?
PTFV: Hmmm.
Perhaps that WOULD be entertaining!
Oh, drat!
(very fast and squeaky) Ummm...
...surely we can talk this out.
L: Hmmm...
H: Talk...
B: Surely...
PTFV: (fast and squeaky) WAIT!
You haven't heard the last of me!
I'll be back! And the next time...
...the world...
...and all its piffling inhabitants...
...shall be MINE!
ALL MINE!
BWAHAHAHA!!
All mine!
B: OK, little fella.
Mail this to Siberia.
Our work here is done.
Now we can go home.
Front Hall

DF: Well, kiddies...

First of all, I would like to thank LucasArts and all the members of the
development team that brought us this classic game. The team leaders, Tim
Schafer and Dave Grossman, deserve all the credit they can get and are both
master craftsmen at their work. Both also attributed to the first two MONKEY
ISLAND games and Tim Schafer brought us FULL THROTTLE, GRIM FANDANGO, and most
recently PSYCHONAUTS. Dave Grossman helped with the new adventure games BONE :
OUT FROM BONEVILLE, and BONE : THE GREAT COW RACE by Telltale games, and I look
forward to the new SAM AND MAX season that they are developing (starting in
less than a month!). I sincerely acknowlege the entire development team for
making such an outstanding classic.

Mixnmojo, a LucasArts adventure fan community, has been an excellent source of
news over the last 6 years, and has reestablished my love for the great
LucasArts adventure games. It has also allowed me to meet with other gamers who

Thanks goes out to the hardworking individuals that have brought us the perfect
program for playing old adventures on modern PCs. I now use SCUMMVM to play all
my favourite LucasArts adventure games on Windows XP with full sound, hassle
