walkthrough to
THE DAME WAS LOADED

Before you start, I feel like I have to tell you something. The Dame game has a timer
element in it. Most sane adventurers will save games constantly to prevent unnecessary
gameplay. To do this in The Dame, you have to return to your  office all the time which
takes too much valuable time. Not going to your office saves you time but might force
you to play the game several times over again when you might fail. The one thing bites
the other!
Whatever style you want to play, I mentioned every unnecessary locations or action as a
'note'. You can decide for yourself whether you want to do this or not.


DAY 1; JULY 29th

STARTING INVESTIGATIONS

Start from your office. A note at the beginning; every time you enter your office,
you'll throw your hat at the hat-rack. If you miss, pick it up! Don't ask why, I'll
explain it later. Just do it!
The game starts with a knock-out. Miss Klein enters your office and although she's good
looking you're able to pick up fragments of her story. Her brother, Dan Klein,
disappeared. His last address was 224 mason Street but that's been knocked down in May.
Miss Klein asks you to investigate the matter, gives you a picture of Danny boy and the
requested amount of cash and wiggles out the door. Wake up, you only got 3 days to solve
the case!

THE OFFICE

Go behind your desk. Pick up the fountain pen from the left of your desk. Get the camera
and the photo of Angela. Move the cursor on the desk light and move forward. Get your
hat. Try to leave the office and meet the landlord. Use your wallet and pay the man $50
to keep him satisfied. Get the plunger from under the wash-bowl. Get the cigarette from
the package on Ralph^╥s desk. Leave the office and get in the car. Turn the radio on and
open the glove compartment. Get the map and point out this location:

MACK^╥S BARBER SHOP

Get in the chair and the shaving will begin. Mention Mack saying ^╤Tigers Revenge, race
4, 10 on the nose^╥ on the phone; he^╥s placing bets on horse races! Look at the newspaper
to the right and read today^╥s news. Mention you can get some hair from the floor but
leave it for now.

Note: As Mack knows most of the gossip, visit him every morning for the latest news and
gossip!

MEG^╥S DINER

Go to the diner and look at the menu on the wall. Choose coffee and donuts. Eat one
donut and slurp that black liquid which seems to be the coffee you^╥ve ordered. Get the
second donut and put it in your inventory. Use the bill to pay it and leave the dinner.

THE POLICE STATION

Meet Denton and talk to him about today^╥s news. Give him a donut and he^╥ll leave for a
refill. Check the box to your right and find a raid roster. On august 1, a joint run by
some Jacob Turner (known to you as Jake) located on Dog Alley number one will be the
target. Get the roster before Denton returns.
Ask Denton about Dan Klein. Not much info. Show him the picture of Dan. Denton knows him
as Dan Small. How obvious; Klein is Dutch or German for Small. Well, well. Fake names! A
man with an alias is a man with a secret! Ask Denton about Dan Small. He^╥ll tell you the
guy hangs around with low life.

THE NEWSPAPER OFFICE

Meet Franky Henderson, one of your many old girls, and talk about stuff. Use the morgue
to get info on Dan Small. Knock on the door and give the name by using the phone. Watch
what happens. Leave. Au revoir. That^╥s French for ^╤see ya later!^╥

YOUR OFFICE

Go to the office and talk to Ralph. Get some sleep on the couch. As you^╥re here, you
might save the game. Remember; coming back to save the game takes valuable time.

JAKE^╥S JOINT

Leave the office and take the car to Jake^╥s. Knock on the door. Give the raid roster to
the man behind the door. Grateful as he is, he^╥ll let you in. Play poker with the guys
around the table. Click on the pile of money on the table and you^╥ll get your cards.
Click on as many of your cards you want to throw out. You^╥ll get some new ones and the
game begins. Whoever wins the game, you get to ask one questions (as longs as you don^╥t
drop your cards!). When the game is over, ask about Dan Small. You^╥ll get info on a guy
called Freddy Creel.

Note: You might not be a pokerface. If you are, there^╥s no need for extra info on the
game. Play along Poker Pat! If you don^╥t know the first thing about it, remember two
things. One; always play with one dollar and never raise. Sometime someone else wins and
you get to ask a questions. Two; never quit, always stay. If you quit, you don^╥t get to
ask questions. Staying prevents you from loosing too much money.

Advice: One little tip from daddy. If you^╥ve got marvelous cards, for example 3 kings,
raise your bets. You can hardly loose but it^╥ll make some good money for ya! Remember;
you can always start again cause you^╥ve saved the game just before you went to Jake^╥s.
Play along, kids!

YOUR OFFICE

As the night is still young you^╥ll have to catch some Z^╥s till the next morning. You
might even want to save the game again. If you already got some sleep earlier this day,
just turn your watch to 7.05.


DAY 2; JULY 30th

MACK^╥S BARBER SHOP

Get a shave and read the newspaper. Get info on Creel^╥s dead in the crusher from Mack.
This Creel guy is getting interesting.

MEG^╥S DINER

Go to the diner and look at the menu on the wall. Choose coffee and donuts. Eat one
donut and slurp that black liquid which seems to be the coffee you^╥ve ordered. Get the
second donut and put it in your inventory. Use the bill to pay it and leave the dinner.
If you choose the newspaper office as your new destination, Franky^╥s not there yet. Put
your watch on 9.00 hours.

THE NEWSPAPER OFFICE

Go talk to Franky. Ask about Freddy Creel. This is old news. Use the morgue for info on
this Creel character. You^╥ll get some info on his wife Louise Creel and Thumbs McKenzie.
Ask Franky about them. McKenzie is old news too. Louise is closed like an oyster so
there^╥s not so much to tell about her. Ask the Morgue again for some info on McKenzie.
Leave. Ciao! That^╥s Italian for ^╤close the door behind you^╥.

LOUISE CREEL^╥S APPARTEMENT

Use knocker on door. Ask Louise about Freddy, McKenzie (Freddy owns him money), Dan
Small (partner of her husband) and Angela Donald (her sister, different dads and didn^╥t
like each other). Then show her the pictures of Angela and Dan Small. Go to the left of
the room. Click on the bottle on the left side of the mantelpiece. Louise tells you to
pour a drink while she gets the ice.

Note: The next event will be timed so you gotta be kinda fast!

Go back to the couch and open Louise^╥s purse. Get out the hairpin. Move back to the left
side of the room. Get the painting above the mantelpiece and get closer to examine the
vault behind it. Put the painting back on by clicking on it. Move back to the right side
of the room and wait for Louise to come back. This might take some time, so be patient!

When she^╥s back you tell it^╥s thanks but no thanks for the drinks and she^╥ll leave
again. Move to the left side of the room again and open the lock of the glass cabinet
with the hairpin. Get the cigar box and move the cursor down till you see the arrow
pointing down. Click button and put the cigar box on the cigarette stand left of the
closet. Examine it and find the pictures of Louise in front of the First National Bank.
Get the cigar box and put it back in the closet again. Move to the right side of the
room again and wait for Louise to come back. She won^╥t miss the hairpin and you^╥ll be
able to leave like a gentleman. Before you leave you ask Louise about the First National
and the diamond robbery over there. She^╥s afraid dear old Frederick has got something to
do with it...

THE COUNTY JAIL

Meet Thumbs McKenzie and give him the cigarette. This makes you his friend and loosen
his tongue. Ask him about The First National Bank robbery and every person in your book.
Find out Angela was Dan Small^╥s girl (ouch!) and that Thumbs was set up and that he^╥s
taking the fall for someone else.

YOUR PONTIAC

The end of the day is near which means some places close down. Open the trunk and get
the tire iron out to save some time. Now go to the O^╥Brien^╥s Foundry. You should be able
to squeeze in before it closes. If you^╥re late, leave it till tomorrow and go to the
Police Station (see: day 3).

THE O^╥BRIEN FOUNDRY

Go to the foundry and find the crusher. Look under the cage and see something red you
can^╥t get to. Go to the crusher and open the cage. Put the tire iron in and close the
cage. Press the button and open the cage. Get the flat tire iron and use it on the
opening beneath the cage. Get the red pencil from the Palm Tree Motel. Go back to the
car and put the tire iron in the trunk again. Get the wrench from the trunk. Notice you
feel sleepy.

JAKE^╥S JOINT

You might go to Jake^╥s to play a game of poker again. Ask about McKenzie. By the way;
this action isn^╥t necessary to finish the game but it won^╥t take any of your precious
time as it is the only joint open at this time.

YOUR OFFICE

Go back to your office and talk to Ralph. He offers to call Louise and give her the
insurance salesman play next time you visit her so you^╥ll have enough time to snoop
around. Get some sleep or turn forward your watch if you^╥re not feeling sleepy. Put away
some stuff from your inventory; camera and tire iron. Put them in the drawer.


DAY 3; JULY 31st

MACK^╥S BARBER SHOP

Have another shave and gossip update by Mack. Read the newspaper for the latest news. Is
there? When you^╥re back in your car, get the wrench from the trunk.

THE POLICE STATION

If you were on time at the foundry yesterday, go to the Police Station and ask Denton
about the First National robbery, the Creel family and Thumbs McKenzie. If you^╥ve
already been to the LAPD, visit the foundry now. For details; see yesterday^╥s report.

THE PALM TREE MOTEL

Show Dan^╥s photo to the desk clerk. He doesn^╥t remember seeing Dan. Give him $2 and his
memory will come back. Dan^╥s been here on June 15. He left his luggage and forgot to pay
his room. Pay $14 and get the luggage. In the suitcase are a photo of Dan and Angela and
a stethoscope. Get them. The guy wants to tell you more but you gotta jog his brains
some more. Give him another $2 and he tells you another P.I. was looking for Dan. From
the description you can tell this P.I. was Carl Brewer.

Go up to use the bathroom and knock on the door of room 11. Show your P.I. I.D.-card and
get a smacker on the head. For this result you can also use the camera. It^╥ll get
damaged but as there^╥s no further use for it, that^╥s okay. Whatever way you choose,
it^╥ll end up with 2 hours of unconsciousness. Grab the key from the reception desk
(it^╥ll cost you another $2) to get in room 11.

Note: For entrance you can also use the hairpin. Remember that this hairpin can only be
used 3 times. You already used it once in Louise apartment.

HOTEL ROOM, NUMBER 11

Enter room 11 and switch on the light (lightswitch in on the wall to your right). Move
to the left and move the bed. Examine the light and get the Railway Station locker key.
Then switch the bathroom light on (switch is right to bathroom entrance) and enter
bathroom. Use plunger on wash-bowl and hear a tinkling sound! Use the wrench on the pipe
beneath the wash-bowl and find a diamond! Get downstairs and drop the key at the
reception. Leave the hotel and go to the...

THE RAILWAY STATION

Use the locker key on the second drawer from the left, upper row. In there you^╥ll find a
pocket book with secret vault codes. It^╥s Dan^╥s. Get this book. Look at the funny codes.
F.C means Freddy Creel and the rest is his safe combination.  L-5 R-8 L-1  means as much
as 5 times left, 8 times right and 1 time left. You already know where his safe is, so
it might come in handy.
You might even want to store things in this locker. As your inventory limit is 15 items,
you might want to put the following stuff in the locker because there^╥s no need for them
in the rest of the game: wrench, plunger and especially the diamond!

CARL BREWER^╥S OFFICE

Use hairpin to open the door to Brewer^╥s office. Examine the closet and find a tuxedo.
Put the dress from the laundry in the closet. Click on the dress with the left mouse
button and choose the left of the two icons appearing (the ^╤wear^╥ sign). You^╥ll find
Franky^╥s notebook. Then click on the tux with your left mouse button. Wear the tux.
Examine the cabinet and find a hip flask. Leave and hear about the Brewer evidence...

Note A: This evidence box really is at the Police Station. If you can get Denton out of
sight, you can open this box. It contains two objects; Brewer^╥s notebook and his wallet.
In his wallet there are three things; money (to the left), his gun license (right, down)
and his I.D.-card (right, up). If you pick something, Denton throws you out but you get
to keep the thing you^╥ve snatched! If you are in desperate need of money, you might try
this. None of the other objects is necessary to finish the game.

Note B: You can also skip the Brewer office. The tuxedo can be found somewhere else too
and the hip flask is not necessary to complete the game. If you do skip the Brewer
place, go to Louise Creel^╥s apartment. Knock twice to make sure she^╥s not home. Open the
door with the hairpin. Go to the vault and open it by putting the arrow on the left of
the wheel and click 5 times, then put the arrow right of the wheel and click 8 times.
Last you click one time on the left. Check out the jewelry and insurance papers in
there.

Note C: You have to make a choice between the Creel apartment or Brewers office because
you can only use the hairpin twice; it^╥ll break on the third time. First time you^╥ve
used it was on the closet in the Creel apartment, second time is the Brewer/ Creel
choice. No third time...

Note D: I preferred visiting the Brewer office because it has the most realistic game
following later on...

THE NEWSPAPER OFFICE

Talk to Franky and ask her about Carl Brewer. You tell her you^╥ve got nothing to do with
his death... Well, did we already know this? Now we do! You can ask the morgue about
him, but you won^╥t get any wiser by it. Ask pretty Francine about the First National
heist. She wrote a story on it. The morgue will give you some info on this topic so
check it out.
Then Franky thinks it^╥s been enough and she kicks you out!  She^╥s got a deadline! Is she
up to something? Outside, two goons are waiting for you. They knock you unconsciousness
and take you to a warehouse.

Note: It happened to me whilst playing the game that the goons wouldn^╥t catch me at this
point. They should when you^╥ve seen the vault and the cigar box and found the diamond
but it seems to be it doesn^╥t happen every time. Solution? Make sure Franky kick you out
by visiting the newspaper office again or go to your apartment (save your game!) and
leave again. At this point, time doesn^╥t matter for a while...

Note: The game should start automatically in the warehouse. Sometimes it didn^╥t. If it
doesn^╥t, press the ^╤continue^╥ button while cd 2 is in the cd-player.

THE WAREHOUSE

Once you^╥ve regained consciousness, the goons want you to point the location of the
sparklers. Send them to Carl Brewer^╥s place; that^╥s not an obvious trick like, for
example, pointing out the Police Station and more important, the stones aren^╥t there at
all! With them having a look-see, you have little time to escape. So hurry! Hop over to
the fire alarm and ^╤use^╥ the glass. Try this three times till the glass breaks. Look at
your lap and get the glass piece from your right knee and cut the rope. Free! Move the
crates, open them and find some whisky bottles. Grab one bottle. Leave the warehouse and
go to your office.

YOUR OFFICE

Ralph is shocked by the looks of you although there^╥s no pretty stuff damaged cause, in
his opinion, it^╥s never been there in the first place. Some pal! Find the note from
Louise Creel in which she asks you to come immediately. Ralph tells you the Granger
case, the reason you^╥ve been working your bud off to get there on august 1st, has gone
to the Pinkerton Agency. He also tells you there^╥s been a burglary at the office. All
stuff from your drawer has been removed. Luckily you didn^╥t keep anything valuable in
it, like the diamond!

LOUISE CREEL^╥S APPARTEMENT

Can you resist the cry of a woman in help? No gentleman can! So go to her place and find
it smashed. She thinks Joel Jones, a businessman, has arranged it. Ask her about the
diamonds and Jones. He^╥s been stalking her and is the worst kind of businessman. Look at
the glass cabinet and find the cigar box with the happy snaps is missing. Use the safe.
The insurance papers are gone. Are they stolen or is Louise hiding them? Examine the
painting for some witty reviews. Look at the sofa and blush! Go through the door and
enter her bedroom (if you in some form use the word ^╤finally^╥ here, you^╥d better turn
your computer off and do something else) which is as messy as the livingroom. Louise
leaves so you can examine the room. Get the sewing kit from the right of the bed. Pick
up the photo of G-G and Freddy at the Race Track. Leave the bedroom and ask Louise about
G-G. He^╥s an associate of her husband. Leave the house.

JAKE^╥S JOINT

At the table you^╥ll only find Mickey and G-G. Ask them about Big Joel Jones. He^╥s the
big man in town. One on three crooks is working for him. He runs everything. Ask ^╤m as
much as you like about the rest of the subjects but you won^╥t learn a lot. Only thing
is, when you ask about Angela, that questions like that won^╥t bring her back but might
help you join her...
Last but not least, show the picture you found in Louise^╥s bedroom to the guys. G-G is
being very defensive about his friendship with late Freddy. Surely hit a nerve there!


DAY 4; AUGUST 2nd

YOUR OFFICE

When you arrive, have some shuteye on the couch. When you wake up, you^╥ll find a ransom
note delivered. By the way, if you fancy Louise, the girl they mention, is Francine.
You^╥ve got 5 days to get the diamonds back if you want to see her back alive. Belief me,
you want to. Put the tux in the closet.

MACK^╥S BARBER SHOP

Have a shave and read the newspaper. Find out McKenzie^╥s been slashed in jail. Now you
should get the hair from the floor.

MEG^╥S DINER

Get a donut. You know how to do that by now...

THE POLICE STATION

Tell Denton about the diamonds and he promises to check it out. Give him the donut so
he^╥ll be off for a while. Get the raid roster from the desk. This time betting shops are
the target and Mack^╥s shop is one of them. When Denton comes back ask him about Jones.
He^╥s got friends amongst the Police force! Ask him about Thumbs McKenzie. He^╥ll tell you
all unpleasant things about Franky^╥s article being a death warrant and throws you out.

THE NEWSPAPER OFFICE

Franky^╥s not there. Sit behind the desk and open the drawer. Use the make up to cover
your bruises. Get the gun and the laundry ticket. Use the phone for some info from the
morgue. Ask about:
1. Joel Jones. He^╥s the big man in town and you get the addresses from his club Blue
Angel and his mansion.
2. Then ask about Franky. She left with 2 guys, one big, one small, in a green sedan.
They were talking about some exclusive and the small guy mentioned fresh mountain air
before they drove off.
3. Ask again about Joel Jones. There^╥s been a story about him being snowed in at his
cabin written by Franky.
4. Ask about the diamond robbery. Story written by Franky. No new leads since then.
5. Ask about Angela. She was the key witness after the fire destroyed the Sweet Dreams
Night Club where she was a torch singer. Police couldn^╥t prove arson. When Angela was
killed, her boss, club owner Josef Wierzcski put a reward on the killing.

THE RED DRAGON LAUNDRY

Give laundry ticket to the man behind the counter and receive Franky^╥s dress. Return to
your car. In the back of your car, Mickey is waiting to warn you. G-G and red are acting
jumpy and they^╥re probably hiding something... You should watch your back! You can ask
him 5 questions so ask about:
1. Franky: she irritated some people that run the town and the major isn^╥t one of them.
2. Joel Jones: cops eat from his hands, the 2 goons that beat you up are his, they^╥re
both named Charlie.
3. Diamonds: they should be out of the country, man in brown got the diamonds.
4. Angela: Big Joel Jones ^╤ordered^╥ her death and hired the goons that shot her!
5. Dan Small. There must be someone with a line to him!
So, Red Randal Hannah is missing and G-G McPherson is hiding. And you got the name of
the one who killed Angela!

Note: The whole sequence to get a clean tux is meant to get in the Blue Angel nightclub
later on in this game. If you didn^╥t visit Brewer^╥s place, you^╥re too late now! To get a
tux after all, they left the following option;

Look at the laundry ticket; the '10' is written in red ink. When you collect Franky^╥s
dress, you can see another tux hanging on the rack. Get the notebook from the dress and
bring the dress back to the laundry. Receive ticket number 10 again (costs you a
quarter). Go to the newspaper office and fill your fountain pen with red ink from the
bottle in the middle of three bottles on the right of Franky^╥s desk. Put the laundry
ticket on the desk and use the pen on the notebook. Choose ^╤20^╥ from the options and
adjust the ^╤10^╥ into a ^╤20^╥. Go back to the laundry and collect the tux with the number
20 ticket. Okay, it^╥s not a day-to-day solution, I know. But it might help you.
By the way, I owe some thanks for this note to Dave Timoney; in his walkthrough I found
this possibility.

THE NEWSPAPER OFFICE

Sit behind the desk and use the hair you took from Mack on the pot of glue in front of
you. It^╥ll make a great fake mustache.

YOUR OFFICE

Back at the office, make sure the hat^╥s on the rack. Ralph leaves and gets shot. Get his
keys. Leave the gun. If the cops find it on you, you^╥re stuck! Hide Franky^╥s gun in the
drawer on your desk. Act quickly; after picking Ralph^╥s keys, move up the stairs and
wait in the office. The cops take you and you spent 2 hours at the Police Station. Back
in the office, you^╥ll empty Brewer^╥s hip flask and wake up next morning.


DAY 5; AUGUST 3rd

YOUR OFFICE

Put Franky^╥s dress in the closet and take the tux out. Do this by licking on the tux
with the left mouse button and select the ^╤pick up^╥ icon. Do the same with the dress but
now choose the ^╤wear^╥ icon. Find Franky^╥s notebook. Take Ralph^╥s keys to open his
cabinet. There^╥s some info in it which is interesting: take the Angela Donald file. She
saw an unfamiliar man with red hair leave the scene when the Sweet Dreams nightclub
burned down. That^╥s why she was the main witness.

MACK^╥S BARBER SHOP

Get a shave, read the newspaper and pick up some hair from the floor.

MEG^╥S DINER

Get a donut... I won^╥t tell you again!

THE RED DRAGON LAUNDRY

Give tuxedo to get it cleaned. Receive laundry ticket number 16.

THE POLICE STATION

Ask Denton about Ralph. You suspect a connection because both Ralph and Angela were shot
in the alley. Denton has a file on the Angela Donald killing and leave to get it. Use
this to look into the evidence box. Read the letter in it. There^╥s also some charcoal
and a matchbox in it. if you^╥re quick, you should be able to get all three of them. If
you doubt, just look a the letter. There^╥ll be more time.

When Denton gets back, the Donald file tells you that Angela was shot in the throat from
thugs in a green sedan. Three .44 bullets were found at the crime scene. A policeman saw
a women in a silver fox fur and with a large hat run away from the scene... Seems a lot
like Louise!

Give Denton the donut and when he^╥s left again, open the evidence box and get the stuff
you didn^╥t get/ see already.  The matchbox can^╥t be taken. When Denton returns, ask him
about Mickey Murphy. He was killed in the Tenement fire with 5 other people. A street
level window was broken and the fire was started by a gasoline bomb. A matchbox was
found. A man with red hair was seen at the crime scene and Jones seems to be involved.

THE NEWSPAPER OFFICE

Ask the morgue about Mickey. Fire started in the basement and circumstances are
suspicious. Get a mustache by using the hair from Mack^╥s on the glue on the left of the
desk.

THE RED DRAGON LAUNDRY

Give the number 16 ticket and get the tux back. It takes about two hours to clean it,
so, if you^╥re early, put the clock forward with 30 minutes at a time and try again till
you get the tux back.

YOUR OFFICE

Go to the closet and wear the tux. Put the clock forward, to approximately 18.00 hours.
Although you^╥re tired, don^╥t sleep! This will make your mustache stick to the pillow.
Leave.

THE BLUE ANGEL CLUB

You^╥re probably early, so put the clock forward to 20.00 hours. Leave the car and enter
the club. Dumb Charlie will guide you to rehearsal room. Open the closet and get the
overall out. Close the closet and examine the black panel in the middle of the room.
Charcoal again! Go through the door and meet Big Joel Jones. He thinks you^╥re the
cleaner and you^╥ll be left alone. Look at the pics near the window, there^╥s one of
Jones^╥ mountain cabin. Open the cabinet (not locked!) and read the files on:
1. Angela; she worked in the Sweet Dreams nightclub, which started losing money and only
earned some on night Angela was singing.
2. Franky; Jones doesn^╥t like her because of many articles she wrote on him.
3. Randal; there^╥s a receipt for services rendered, called ^╤consultancy^╥... wonder what
that means!
4. GG; real name is Ashley...
5. Thumbs McKenzie; he isn^╥t on the payroll!

Note: In Dave Timoney^╥s walkthrough I also found something I didn^╥t (need to) do during
the game. Maybe you walk into that situation, so I^╥ll give it to you as well. Here it
is:
Put the tux in the closet and try to wear it; the trousers need to be stitched up. Using
the sewing kit from Louise', it's a snap.

YOUR OFFICE

Make sure you throw your hat on the rack. Someone shooting at you but the shadow of your
hat and coat distract him and you^╥ll live! Have some sleep.


DAY 6; AUGUST 4th

MACK^╥S BARBER SHOP

Get shave, read the newspaper and give him the raid roster.

THE NEWSPAPER OFFICE

Ask the morgue about Jones. Jones bought the mountain cabin about a year ago. The
classified has the address of his mountain cabin and the add itself. It takes some time
to look through last year^╥s adds so you have to be here early!

JONES^╥ MOUNTAIN CABIN

On your way there you crash! When you wake up, you^╥ll find yourself tied in one room
with Franky and Smart Charlie. When Charles leaves the room, grab Franky^╥s hair. Get her
hairpin to open the handcuffs. Get the bear trap from the wall and smash the window with
it. Step behind the door (arrow on the right side of the door). When de hood comes in, a
fight starts which ends by Franky shooting Charlie. Luckily, this police matter can be
handled smoothly and everyone can get back to work.

Note: Day 7 passed while you were in the cabin.

YOUR OFFICE

You receive another letter from Louise Creel. She^╥s outta town for a couple o^╥ days.
Besides that, she tells you to go to room 78 of the Seville Hotel when you^╥re lonely.
Hmm... Well, better get some sleep first!


DAY 8, AUGUST 6th

YOUR OFFICE

Get the dress from the closet and leave.

MACK^╥S BARBER SHOP

Have a shave, read the newspaper. Listen to his story!

THE RED DRAGON LAUNDRY

Give the dress to have it cleaned and receive a laundry ticket.

THE NEWSPAPER OFFICE

Talk to Francine. She^╥s too busy to talk to you, so leave again.

MEG^╥S DINER

Do the donut thing and for a change read the newspaper here too.

THE NEWSPAPER OFFICE

Get behind Franky^╥s desk and put the laundry ticket down. Use fountain pen on red ink
bottle (in the middle of the three bottles to your right). Use the pen on the notebook.
Choose ^╤18^╥ from it and change the number on the laundry ticket into ^╤18^╥.

Note: All actions this days could be performed faster, you might think. That^╥s true, for
example the diner stuff. The reason to do it like this is because Franky has to leave
the newspaper office. I played the game twice in this order and in both games Franky is
gone when you follow actions like mentioned above. Of course, you can also follow your
own order of actions and check the newspaper office frequently.

THE RED DRAGON LAUNDRY

Give the forged ticket and receive the bellhop costume.

YOUR OFFICE

Jack Menzies, the landlord, wants his rent. If you don^╥t have enough money, give him
almost everything you^╥ve got. You won^╥t be needing money anymore from this point on. If
you have enough money, pay him. If there^╥s not enough money, he^╥ll tell you he^╥s out of
sympathy and you^╥ll have only three days to pay the rest.

JAKE^╥S JOINT

Wait till 18.00 hours and go to Jake^╥s. Red Randall Hannah is there. He^╥s not afraid
because you don^╥t have any evidence of him being involved. Show him the receipt you
found in  Joel Jones^╥ cabinet. He^╥s arrested. By the way, this is not necessary to end
the game successfully.

YOUR OFFICE

Put the bellboy costume in the closet and wear it. You^╥ll be on your way to the Seville
Hotel. There you receive a pass key to room 78.

SEVILLE HOTEL, ROOM 78

Open the nearest night-stand and find a postal receipt. A 2 pounds parcel has been sent
to Oregon two days ago. That must be to Carol Klein^╥s house! Also find a telephone
numbers page opened on the S of Small! Examine the other night-stand and find some
bullets. Then examine the closet and click on the brown jacket twice; it^╥s the brown
coat with leather patches Ralph^╥s killer wore! Enter the bathroom and hide behind the
green shower curtain. Put the cursor in the middle of the screen and wait till someone
removes it. Click on the button and knock him unconsciousness. Get the shave kit from
the wooden box and use it on the bearded man. It Freddy Creel! Leave the room and Creel
will be arrested. This solves another mystery; if Creel wasn^╥t the one killed in the
crusher, it must have been Dan Klein...

Note: Day 9 passes while you^╥re waiting on Carol Klein.


DAY 10, AUGUST 8th

YOUR OFFICE

Two days later, Carol Klein comes to you. Ask her about Dan and hear about his
childhood. Touching... Give her back Dan^╥s picture and the happy snap op Dan and Angela.
Ask her about Angela. The topic will change to Brewer and you^╥ll learn she hired him in
the first place. She never heard of him and that^╥s why she hired you as well. Show her
the postal ticket and she tells you she received a package full of diamonds. As she
didn^╥t know what to do with it, she took them with her.  Then end the conversation. She
leaves but the suitcase with the diamonds is left in your office. Get the diamonds and
leave the office.

YOUR PONTIAC

As rain is pouring down, you meet Louise Creel in your car. She wants to run away with
you... Well, there have been less nice proposals made! This is one tall lady with a cool
smile! If your libido wins from your P.I. gut feelings, at least you^╥ll know what the
title means; this dame is loaded... and so are you... with some bullets! So click on the
car door and tell her to leave. She wants to have a last smoke but be quick and grab her
purse! She hides a gun there. Then you^╥ve got a choice. Either you take her to the
Police Station (click on the steering wheel) or you let her go (click on the door). I
let her go; there^╥s got to be some gentlemen in this world, not? Then go to the Police
Station.

THE POLICE STATION

Give Denton the diamonds and tell your story. Then leave.

TO CAROL / A HAPPY ENDING

Pick a new location from the map; ^╤to client^╥. Look at the movie clip... it says it all.
