The Hardy Boys: The Hidden Theft Hints
How can I get the cell phone back into the bedroom?
1 of 12: You aren't going to just be able to throw it back to Frank -- that'd risk it dropping and breaking.
2 of 12: You're going to need a more streamlined, safe route between the two brothers.
3 of 12: If only there were a way to fly the phone safely back up into the bedroom.
4 of 12: Shame neither of the boys can fly.
5 of 12: Is there anyone around who can?
6 of 12: Did you meet Playback yet?
7 of 12: He's the boys' pet parrot, and he's sitting happily on his perch next to the bedroom window.
8 of 12: As Frank, you can actually pick him up and take him with you in your inventory.
9 of 12: Use Playback to solve the puzzle.
10 of 12: First, use him with Joe at the window to send him down.
11 of 12: Now, as Joe, use the cell phone with Playback, and use that combination with Frank up at the window.
12 of 12: This will return the phone to the bedroom safely.
