Day of the Tentacle Hints
How do I connect the power source to the Chron-O-John?
1 of 5: The power cord on the John isn't long enough to reach the basement by itself.
2 of 5: But you might find a way of extending it.
3 of 5: You'll find something on the second floor of this "motel."
4 of 5: Get the extension cord out of the room where the mummy is.
5 of 5: Attach it to the plug, use it on the window, and then go down to the basement to hook the cord to the outlet on the generator.
