Try looking at the items in your inventory.

Try looking at the items in your inventory.

how?.. what item?
the porno?

[jane]

sometimes you have to try giving someone an item several times before they take it

not working... Gave magazine at least 20 times to no result and shot the invincible cop four times.

I made the same, nothing happens

[Xada-Hgla]

So... Ã, did anyone ever figure this game out?

[Petra]

Yes, just downloaded and finished it...

Spoiler

you need to look at the porno in your inventory first before you may hand it over to the cop

I'm still having trouble. How many times do I have to try to give it to him? I've had time run out after giving it to him countless times!!!! I looked at it twice first...am I supposed to do anything else first? What am I missing here? Very frustrated!

Alright, with the help of above, I finally got past the cop, though it was not quite straightforward --- what I found was:

Spoiler

what matters is you need to look at the cop first, before you try to give him the porno.Ã,  You also need to look at the porno twice, in your inventory.Ã,  From this, your character learns the name of the cop (off his badge) and the name of the cover model on the porn, and infers the connection (they have the same last name).Ã, 

After that information is gained, the cop will now become interested in seeing the porno mag.

So I got that far, but now I can't get past the monkey on the next screen!!!

:)Ã, 

Any help?

This one sure is difficult for me, for one that's supposed to be short --- I guess I may be just slow.
