Day of the Tentacle Hints
Where is my power source?
1 of 5: Dr. Fred had a power source in his basement in the 20th century. Perhaps it's still in the basement of Laverne's time.
2 of 5: Yes, it is, but you first need to get down to the basement.
3 of 5: By getting into the grandfather clock. Another question tells you how.
4 of 5: There it is, the hamster generator! But you need a hamster.
5 of 5: There's one in Bernard's time. The only trick is how to transfer a live animal through the ages. See the "Plumbing Problems" section for help.
