Grim Fandango Hints
How can I get better clothes?
1 of 14: Meche might be able to help you with this part.
2 of 14: Talk to her -- she's watching Chowchilla Charlie play slots.
3 of 14: She doesn't seem to recognize you. Your disguise must just be too good.
4 of 14: Talk to her again, and she'll realize who you are. She'll also tell you what her plans are.
5 of 14: She wants to get Chowchilla Charlie out of his suit, and into the sheet that she's holding.
6 of 14: Take the sheet from her, and see if Charlie will take it from you.
7 of 14: Use the sheet on Charlie.
8 of 14: It seems that he doesn't want to go to the party with Meche until he's actually won at the slot machines.
9 of 14: Have you seen anyone else who's had better luck with the slots?
10 of 14: The LSA agent on the other machines has been able to fix them.
11 of 14: He could help you here.
12 of 14: Talk to him when Charlie is underneath the sheet, and he'll fix the machine. Charlie will come up to see he's a winner, and he'll then go and change in the men's room.
13 of 14: Take his clothes while he's gone.
14 of 14: Go into the men's room yourself, and you'll come out better dressed.
