Grim Fandango Hints
I need Don Copal's approval on something. How do I get in to see him?
1 of 15: Well, he seems to be out for the day. It is the Day of the Dead, after all.
2 of 15: But maybe you can get his approval anyway.
3 of 15: It's not like bosses really do everything for themselves.
4 of 15: Maybe Eva could help you out here.
5 of 15: Give her the work order, and see what happens.
6 of 15: Hmm ... that's odd. Don Copal isn't in, but he's still answering Eva's messages. You should try to see what's up with that.
7 of 15: There is another way into his office besides the front door.
8 of 15: Try the window.
9 of 15: You can get in from the alley beside the building.
10 of 15: Climb the string of ties, and then go through the window on the ledge to get inside his office.
11 of 15: Look around the office, and you should find the source of Don's responses.
12 of 15: Check his computer.
13 of 15: You can select a new message from the computer, using the arrow keys.
14 of 15: Select "Just sign it yourself" as the new response.
15 of 15: Now, Eva will sign the work order for you once you give it to her.
