Grim Fandango Hints
How can I convince Bowsley to leave Hector?
1 of 10: You need to scare him.
2 of 10: Convince him he's not safe with Hector.
3 of 10: You know, Hector is not a nice guy. He has already threatened you already, after all.
4 of 10: But he didn't address his death threat to you.
5 of 10: Maybe you can recycle the threat.
6 of 10: You just need to find a way to deliver it to Bowsley.
7 of 10: The pigeon in the cage of the LSA headquarters can deliver anything to anyone, as long as she has a photo of her target.
8 of 10: Take a look at the monitors, and you'll notice that Bowsley is tending the remains of a former LSA agent.
9 of 10: Whose photo happens to be in the trash.
10 of 10: Get that photo. Then give the note from Hector and the photo to the pigeon. Bowsley will take the threat as intended, and go running through the sewers beneath El Marrow.
