Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened Hints
How can I open the door at the top of the next set of stairs?
1 of 11: Try clicking on it to see what Holmes will say.
2 of 11: Instead of making a useful comment, he'll just ask you where the Hindu guy hid the key.
3 of 11: Remember what "Dirty" Sommers said before Watson accidentally knocked him out of a window.
4 of 11: He said that you'd never have the key while his Hindu buddy lived, and that he has it "deep and safe in his own."
5 of 11: If you had to kill the Hindu to get the key, what would that mean?
6 of 11: The guy must have hastily swallowed it when he saw you finish off Ashmat.
7 of 11: So exactly where is the key at this very moment?
8 of 11: Why, in his stomach, of course!
9 of 11: So type in STOMACH to pass the quiz.
10 of 11: Watson will cut the key out of the Hindu guy in a CUT-scene (get it?), and you'll have it in inventory when you regain control.
11 of 11: Run back up the stairs and use the key on the door to open it.
