5.> Talk to Detective Powell four times...see what I mean? This woman is a BITCH! Look in the mirror; nice, Curtis. Wonder what the doc'll say about you flipping yourself off. Go to the front hall and get the mail. Go to the living room and click the mail on yourself. Invitation to the Borderline and a letter from Mom that turns into a squished eyeball. ACK! Go over to Blob's cage and click on it three times (the third time is just for cuteness' sake). Go over to the bookshelf and click on it...Curtis is REALLY losing it, isn't he? Use the Doc's card on the phone, then go to WynTech. Go into the main office area and go to Tom's cubicle. Oh great...more chewing-out, and a zombified Tom. How sweet. Exit WynTech and go to the Dreaming Tree. Talk to Trevor four times. Go to Doctor Harburg's office. Click on the Doc once, then on the snow-globe twice, then twice more on the Doc. Hmm, "psychotic episode," huh? Gee, that was a brilliant observation...he only said he HATED being in the mental ward, so what do you do? Suggest they put him in one again, huh? BRILLIANT! Where'd this woman get her psychiatry degree, Sally Struther's learn- by-mail school? Go back to your apartment. Wait a few moments. When the door is knocked on, open it. Click on Jocilyn twice...oops. Click on the mirror (NICE sequence with the "zombie" eyes and the lightning bolts!), then go to the living room, and click on the hairpin on the cofee table...take it, then go to WynTech. Use the hairpin on Warner's main hall office door. Click on the desk, then the computer. Select CurtisC, type "BLOB," click Log In, click on the E-mail icon, and read Trevor's mail message that says "READ THIS!" Hit the Log Out button, exit the system, then click on the computer again, and pick PWarner for the login name. Type in CARPE DIEM and hit Log In. Click on the two-computer icon at the bottom of the screen. Select CurtisC and click the Up Arrow next to Security Level. Type in BLACKLOTUS and hit OK. Exit the computer interface after you get done with our buddy, Mr. Entity. Click on the desk drawer, then use the screwdriver on the drawer. Take the piece of paper on the left, then the book on the right. Examine both in inventory (open 'em). Exit the desk close-up by going left. Click on the door in view to go back to the hall. Go down the hall to the back door. Use your key card on the sensor to the right. Use the key card on the sensor that's left of the elevator doors. Click on the double doors, then on the strait- jacket on the floor...then on the second doorway, then on the toy on the floor...then on the third doorway, then on the blanket on the floor. Apparently, Warner threw YOU into this Threshold thing when you were a child...and SOMETHING happened to you there. This is NOT good. Go to the door at the end of the hall on the right. Click on the door. Save your game here, because this is a timing trick, and if you don't do it fast enough, you die. Click on the keypad to the right of the door. It has five buttons. The timer starts as soon as you touch one. Clicking a button cycles the number on it down by one each time you click. So, QUICKLY click the buttons so the display reads "1" for the first number, ignore the second number (it stays "0"), "9" for the third number, "5" for the fourth number, and "8" for the last number. (October 9, 1958...you go that from Warner's speech). If you make a mistake or don't do it FAST, you're dead. End of story. Do it right, and you're in a computer room. Click on the Computer. Type in the password "ROSETTA" (you got that from the codebook). When you get asked about the Twin, click the "WHY" button, then "YES," then "WHY," then any button-the aliens ask you to enter the Threshold chamber. Press Exit, then click on the little panel to the right of the big door. Another key sensor? But do NOT use your own card on it, or you're dead (found that one out the hard way). Exit the computer room and wander all the way back to the elevator...then click on the buttons next to the elevator to go back up to the upper floor. Go down the corridor, exit WynTech, and go to the Borderline. Talk to the leather-woman at the bar. For an interesting sound, click diagonal left to get to the restroom door closeup and try to go in...uh, nope. Go back to the bar and turn left to sit down with Therese. Talk to her twice, then click on the drink in front of you. Diagonal right. Try to go through the back door, then click the invitation on him. You go up to the door. Click on the puzzle below the door handles. Clicking on any of the four pieces will rotate it. Clicking too MANY times will rotate ALL the pieces. So, start at the top left and rotate all four pieces so that the green quarter-circles are facing the center...then click on the center of the puzzle. Click on the rack on the right. The Gimp! (Sorry, that's a Pulp Fiction joke...) Now click on the curtains to end Chapter Four...note (if you're able to) what you're lying on during your...er ...experience with Therese. Note the handle on the left (this will come in handy later, believe it or not). Curtis drops into bed and finds the bondage hood, and then...well, let's just say that's all she wrote for Therese, as she gets manacled up with an apple stuffed in her mouth, then gets stabbed in the gut and electrocuted in her own blood...now THAT is cool! Sick, but cool! And we're on to the last CD and the hardest part of the game...
6.> Click on Detective Powell...oh yeah, NICE woman. Now click on the rat cage. Click on Powell twice more...ARRGH! BITCH! Look in the mirror twice (once for the axe scene, once to relive Therese's death). Go to the front hall and click on the drop box. When something is delivered a moment later, click the box again. Go to the bedroom, go right, click on the nightstand, take the wallet, exit the closeup, and go to the living room. Go over to Blob's cage and click on it. Click Dr. Harburg's card on the phone...after the sequence (uh-oh) you wind up at her office. Click on the phone. The Doc's screaming her head off. Save your game here, then move the cursor across the desk until you get a down-arrow cursor, then click. This part takes timing...the security guard shows up and holds you at gunpoint. When he looks at the melted Doc, click on the doorway to escape (wait too long and you get shot). Go to WynTech. Go to the main office area. Click on the water cooler...ick! Now go to your cubicle and sit in the chair. Click on the computer...damn entities! Exit your cubicle and go to Bob's. Click on the magnifying glass. Exit that cubicle and go to Tom's. Click on his computer. (I know, I know, I shouldn't be putting you through all this garbage, but isn't it EVIL?) Go to Warner's office, click on the desktop, then on the computer. Choose CurtisC, type "BLOB" and Log In. Click on your E-Mail icon and read it all...uh-oh. Trevor's in trouble now...and the letter from your dead mother is NOT nice. Log Out, then click on the computer again, select PWarner, and type "CARPE DIEM" to get in. Open the PaulW folder and open the goldmine.doc file. Ah-ha...crazy bastard. Click on the "Graphic" button. Click on the Print button. Exit out to the main hallway. Go to the Network Room...and Trevor gets killed by the Network Cables (gonna have to talk to MIS about that one), and you finally meet Mr. Entity! He's the Hecatomb, and he's just NOT a nice guy, is he? Click on Trevor to get his card key. Go to the glass doors, use Curtis's card on the sensor, then on the sensor at the elevator. Go through the first set of doors for another flashback... hey, WHY are you covered with slime? Hmmmm...go through the other sets of doors to the underground computer room and click on the computer. Type in "ROSETTA" and hit random buttons until whoever's on the other end suggests you enter the Threshold. Click the Exit button, click on the key sensor, then use TREVOR'S card on it (not your own!) Push the second button from the left. Welcome to the Threshold. Click on the console...and Warner shows up and points another gun at you (that's two so far this chapter). Click on Warner; now THIS man is an asshole! Click on him again to find out some truly fascinating information...YOU are an alien! THEN, the Hecatomb shows up...click on HIM to find out HE is the real Curtis Craig. Whoa, MAJOR wackiness here, folks...click on the Hecatomb again to get zapped with green lightning from your mom's severed head (no, this guy is NOT nice). Click on the Threshold control panel at the center of the screen. Welcome to the alien's dimension. You've got to move quickly, or a bunch of aliens show up and kill you. Click on the big stalks right in front of you. Grab the red slime in the closeup. Exit that closeup and go down. Click on the creature to your left. Take it. Go right twice and click on the creature behind you. Take it. Go right. Click on the starfish-shaped creature to your right. Click on the creatures on the left. Take the fungus in the closeup. In inventory, look at the starfish-shaped creature, then click the "D"-shaped creature on the starfish closeup to get a very weird looking "combined creature." Now turn right and go diagonal left. Click low on the electrical wall, save the game, click HIGH on the electrical wall (if you click low again, you're toast...almost literally). Turn left. Click on the bubble-thingys. Click the pink fungus in inventory on the remaining bubble-thing. Grab the bubble thing in the closeup. Go back to the electrical wall and click the "combined creatures" on it. Click on the plume on the far right side of the screen. Welcome to "your" home. Walk up to the encased body. Save your game here...you're about to go through a series of actions that leave you little time to think...
7.> Click on the encased body. Click on the surgical tray. Click on the syringe on the left of the tray. When you wind up with Jocilyn, click on the GUN (not on her!) Now you're back at WynTech. As soon as you can, click "down," then grab the card key IMMEDIATELY, exit the closeup, then IMMEDIATELY click on the elevator door on the right, then as fast as you can, use Curtis's card key on the sensor...if you don't do this fast enough, the zombies of Bob, Trevor, and Tom kill you. Now you're on that bondage rack again...remember how I mentioned the handle on the left side of the screen? Pull it NOW, and you wind up in your back yard with Mommie Dearest. Click on her, and you wind up back in the Hecatomb room. Click on the encased body twice, then click on the gold slime, turn left, and click on the cave opening. Go left, and click on the pipe to your right. In inventory, examine the "alien slime," then use the "alien glop" on the slime closeup to get "alien ooze." (Great descriptions, huh?) Use the ooze on the pipe. Climb up back to the Threshold. Click on the green globes to the left side of the gate. Use the "electric alien" on the unlit globe. Back away from those and click on the circuitry hanging above you on the right. Click on the viewscreen in the middle of the console. Now for the weird part. In the weird "control panel" you see, look at the extreme lower right. See the four disconnected plugs and the "sockets" just above them? Connect the purple plug to the green socket, the orange plug to the blue socket, the green plug to the purple socket, and the blue plug to the red socket. Now look directly up from that...see the three disconnected wires and three sockets? Connect the orange plug to the purple socket, the green plug to the red socket, and the purple plug to the green socket. Now look up at the left top corner. See the spiky buttons to the right of the four- plug arrangement? Click on that. This fires a laser into a ball just below it. Click on that ball. Click on the spiky button again. Click on the ball again. Click on the spiky button again. Now, look right of the spiky button and right of the relatively large sphere. See the circular knob almost directly over the "heart?" Click on it. Then click on it again. Click on the spiky button one more time. Note there are three switches that flash just down and to the left of the "heart." Push them in the order they flashed...first red, then yellow, then blue. Now then, see the triangular button on the left side near the bottom? Click twice on it. NOW, just to the right of the spiky button is a relatively large sphere. Directly connected to that (below and left) is a spherical button. Push it. You wind up going through the Threshold device. Save your game here if you like. Now you've got two choices...stay as a human (click on Jocilyn) or return through the Threshold and become an alien once more (click on the Threshold). It's your choice. Personally, if you think about it, you stand accused of murdering four people, your girlfriend will probably never accept the fact you're an alien, that detective hates you, your job is gone, your best friend is dead...personally, I'd be an alien and tell Jocilyn to go pound sand. But, that's up to you. Oh yeah, and be sure to watch all the way through the credits to find out what happens to Warner...GAME OVER MAN!
