Day of the Tentacle Hints
Why does Harold keep winning the separate events?
1 of 5: Face it. There's no way that your mummy can compete with someone who's been groomed for these contests as long as Harold has been.
2 of 5: Why don't you talk to the tentacles in the judging area for some advice?
3 of 5: Specifically, talk to the tentacle doctor. It turns out that all humans have to be healthy before they're allowed in the contest.
4 of 5: So you'll need to make Harold look sick.
5 of 5: Use the fake barf from the lobby of Bernard's time on Harold, and he will be disqualified from the contest.
