But I have another question:
How can I investigate the van where Tim is hanging around? I already got the guy the ouzo-water. Can I get his moosehead somehow? I think I need it to talk to Tim...

Answer:
make a pea shooter with a rolled-up tube and pins. Shoot the balloons and when Simon is distracted, grab the head. I had to set the game settings to slow to make it possible

Got the pins and the blowgun made with the flyer soyou can blow the globes. But something more is missing. Syncronization perhaps?

edit after the previous message was post: OK, it was a matter of speed..

Here's a series of hints, followed by the out and out solution.

Thanks,   Cogliostro

It seems like a bit of a glitch, but:

when I got to the guitarist he already had his jacket off because I had been messing with the controls already. You can't get the autograph from him unless he is wearing the jacket when you ask him for the autograph and THEN make him remove it

I'm onto the next part of the game and stuck again but I'll keep trying till I give up again!

There's actually an easy solution for that:
you can set the clima control to COLD again, then the gituarist will put on his jacket again.

Yes, that's how I solved it. But I still consider it a bit of a glitch because logically you shouldn't have to if
the jacket is already off.

Ah, ok!
Did you already have the conversation about the autograph BEFORE you set the clima to high? Since it is during that conversation that the guy gives the autograph and puts in his jacket.
If so, then it is indeed a glitch. I will look into it tonight!

how do i find light to go back to the sewers??

Head into the subway station.  It'll be obvious.

I am stuck at the point where:

The janitor in the hospital is fixing the speaker. I can't figure out how to steal his tools. I also need help reading the letter from the sister that is too light to make out clearly.

Thanks,
Michael

I have the
book and key


I have the
subway stub but the game won't let me into the tube.
Do I need to get something or do something first?

In order to get into the subway....

You need to show the subway stub to Simon / Moose Guy.

You have to
wait till he's in the park

Use
the lighter

Sigh...stuck again...

I'm trying to
open the chest. I am clueless what the relationship is between the symbols on the top are with the bottom with the combination. I assume they somehow point to the corresponding symbols in the 1, 2, and 3 indentations which in turn are found in the book but after struggling here I don't know where to start
.

If someone has even a small clue I would appreciate it.

Shadow,

In order to open the STONE chest...
Each of the three circles/spots is labeled with a number of dots.  Now go back and look at Suzie's symbol book.


The book is divided into three sections as well.


SOLUTON NEXT


For button/circle/spot ONE select the symbol that is not listed in category ONE.  Each button/circle/spot includes a symbol that does not belong.

That part I actually got on my own!

You're going to need a drachma - a Greek coin.

Fortunately there's one nearby

In the sewer just outside the bar, the item sparling behind the sewer grate is the coin you need.

If you try to climb up the fire escape in the back of the bar, you'll end up with a long slender pole.

That fits through the sewer grate, but there's no way to make the coin stick to the pole.

COMPLETE SOLUTION IS NEXT

Use the gum from the tourists on the airport on yourself.  You'll end with a wad of gum.  STick that to the end of the pole, and use that on the sewer grate to get the coin.

Thanks for the help with getting the coin.  Does anyone have any hints about:
How to get the hanging dinosaur bird to fall? I have got the bridge down but I can't figure out how to knock the bird down].
