Grim Fandango Hints
How can I open Nick's cigarette case?
1 of 5: You will need to find something powerful to crack open the case.
2 of 5: Something that's often been used improperly to open other things.
3 of 5: The detonation chamber at the blimp station could probably open the case.
4 of 5: Just give it to Carla.
5 of 5: And imply that it's a dangerous object. She'll put it in the chamber and let you have the key that was inside.
