Grim Fandango Hints
Where can I get a disguise?
1 of 12: Explore the tunnels down here.
2 of 12: You should eventually stumble upon some people who have a disguise of their own, of sorts.
3 of 12: I'm referring to the two Thunder Boys backstage.
4 of 12: Talk to them, and you'll realize that they have the last two parts in the show.
5 of 12: But maybe you could get them to leave their job.
6 of 12: You'll need to run them out of the stage area.
7 of 12: A sudden injury might do that.
8 of 12: Nothing's more dangerous than a hot pot of coffee.
9 of 12: Take the coffee from its warmer, and try pouring it on them.
10 of 12: You just need the right vantage point.
11 of 12: Climb the ladder up to the platform above the two Thunder Boys, and pour the coffee on them from there.
12 of 12: You can then go toward the stage, and you'll be fitted with the Thunder Boy makeup.
