Starting in the Mansion take the window sign, the flier and the dime from the pay-
phone, then open the grandfather clock in the hall. Take the Super Battery plans
from the notice-board. Give Hoagie the 'Help Wanted’ sign, the flier, textbook and
the plans. Enter Dr Fred’s office, take the BooBoo-B-Gone from the desk drawer,
go through the double doors, open the vent, corner the teeth into the open grating
(give these to Hoagie), go through the swing door, pick up the two pots of coffee
and the fork. Now enter the laundry and find the funnel. Go upstairs, enter Room
W and put the dime in the slot machine, close the door, take the keys >from the
lock and exit.
Enter the next room and pick up the invisible ink, exit and enter the Green
Tentacle’s room, turn the stereo on then off, push the speaker and turn the stereo
on and off again (this loosens the fake barf), take the video and exit. Enter the
next room, pick up the hamster, use the ink on the stamp album, pick up the stamp
and give the book back to Ed. (Use the computer to play the original game of
Maniac Mansion.) Enter the hall, use the hamster with the ice-box and then walk
outside into the open. Give the keys to the thief in exchange for a crowbar, go
back into the lobby, pick up the fake barf, get the dime and gum using the
crowbar, use gum to separate the two, go back to Room W and put the dime in the
slot machine, pick up the jumper and exit. Use the crowbar on the sweet machine
and take the quarters. Climb to the attic, exit through the window and pick up the
crank handle, climb down the chimney and find the laundry room. Put the jumper
in the dryer and use the quarters. Go to the lab and use the decaf coffee with Dr
Fred’s mug – he’ll fall asleep.

Open the mailbox, take the letter and give it to Bernard, enter the motel and put
the vacuum cleaner flier in the suggestion box, go through the doors, take the
bottle of oil and the spaghetti. Go through the next door and take the brush and

Enter the hall and climb inside the grandfather clock. Give the plans, the oil and
'Help Wanted’ sign to Red Eddison, take the lab coat, grab the hammer from the
table and go back upstairs.

room when the maid enters, take the soap from the cart. Enter the empty room and
take the wine, exit and find the talking horse, use the textbook with the horse, take
the false teeth and the enter the next room. Swap the hammer on the barrel for the
one in your inventory (so you can push the nurse out of the way in the present),
exit the room and enter the attic, find the red paint, use the noisy mattress on the
southern bed with the other bed and then grab the toy mouse. Clamber out of the
window and then climb down the chimney, give the bottle of wine to Jefferson.
Walk to the cherry tree by the Chron-O-John and paint it red, go inside the Motel

couldn’t do a repeat performance. Give the paint to Bernard.
