Cut-scene in "Apprentice II"

So, I've played "Apprentice II" all the way through (and absolutely loved it), completed it, even completed the secret bonus puzzle.Ã,  But two things are still eluding me ...

1) I've heard much tell of a cut-scene in which Lord Ironcrow tries on various wigs - it's even used as the game's screenshot in the 'download' section - but whatever I do, I can't seem to find that cut-scene!Ã,  Am I just being incorrigibly thick, or is this scene 'hidden' somehow?Ã,  If so, what do I have to do to unlock it?

2) Also, the first time I played the game, I briefly caught sight of a little fellow peeping out from behind a bush near the Foolkiller's tent.Ã,  He vanished and I never saw him again, nor had any explanation as to what he was all about.Ã,  Is this connected with anything?

My thanks in advance to anyone who can enlighten me.

And to the Brothers Schlaepfer: congratulations on some truly superlative game-making, and roll on "Apprentice III"!

I know nothing of the little guy, but the wig scene you refer to can be found by talking to the recruiting guard.  Eventually, he'll say something about what Ironcrow is doing and you'll get the scene.

Thanks!  That was driving me potty.

The blonde dude in the garden was just placed there for no specific purpose, I believe.

How do I find the secret bonus puzzle?  I've played through the whole game three times and now been able to find it.

Thank you!

Oh dear ... I thought *you'd* be able to tell me that!  First time I ever played, some little guy - who looked an awful lot like Pib - poked his head up from behind a bush on the Foolkiller's screen, then vanished, never to return.  And Pib said "I wonder who that was?"  At least, I'm pretty sure that all happened ... I'm beginning to worry that I just imagined it all ...

Okay!  In brief:

I'll let you take it from there ... :)

Whn I played he didn't pop up on the Foolkiller's screen, it was outside the big mansion in town. It seems he gets around...

Good lord, then perhaps I didn't imagine it.

I don't suppose one of the game's creators would care to put us out of our misery?

That "little blond guy" as you put it, is the lieutenant who argues with the highwaywoman. Whom Foolkiller relieves of his wardrobe.
