3 of 7: Red Edison's lab coat looks like a raincoat, but only employees can take that coat.
4 of 7: You need to give Red Edison proof that you are working for him.
5 of 7: Or at least proof that he needs someone working in his lab.
6 of 7: Give him the "Help Wanted" sign from the motel's window in Bernard's time.
7 of 7: Then give the lab coat to Ben Franklin, and he'll go out to fly his kite again.
