Dreamfall: The Longest Journey Hints
How can Zoë get rid of the guard outside her cell?
1 of 6: First, you'll need to get her out of the cell -- there's not much she can do from inside.
2 of 6: Once she's outside, you should already have the smoke bomb that April brought you via Crow. That will take care of the guard -- you just need to figure out how to use it on him.
3 of 6: The smoke bomb has a little range, but not a whole lot. You won't be able to throw it at the guard from your current cell.
4 of 6: So sneak around and get fairly close to the guard without getting too close.
5 of 6: I recommend walking (well, sneaking) around the cellblock to your right, and periodically, checking with focus mode to see if you get an option to use the smoke bomb on the guard. You can walk and toggle in and out of focus mode even with your inventory open once you have the smoke bomb selected, so there's no need to keep closing your inventory to check.
6 of 6: I found that standing one cell door away from the guard's position is good enough. Switch into focus mode there, aim at the guard, and use the smoke bomb the way you use any other inventory item to throw it at the guard. He should then be unconscious for as long as you need him to be.
