The Hardy Boys: The Hidden Theft Hints

How can I get inside Richard Llewellyn's room, room 305?

  • 1 of 13: You're going to need to be pretty mean here.
  • 2 of 13: You'll need to fake a medical code to call the security guard away from room 305, and to another room where an accident will befall him.
  • 3 of 13: What kind of markers do people often use to mark something which may cause an accident?
  • 4 of 13: The orange cones outside room 310 are showing a water spill.
  • 5 of 13: Remove that marker. Take the cones away.
  • 6 of 13: Now we need to find a way to get the security guard to move to room 310.
  • 7 of 13: The key to doing this can be found on the computer in the office.
  • 8 of 13: You need to call the security guard to room 310, so do as the memo onscreen tells you.
  • 9 of 13: It says to call the code, then call the room number.
  • 10 of 13: So go to the telephone just next to the reception desk (near room 310), and dial that code.
  • 11 of 13: Dial 116310.
  • 12 of 13: This will cause the security guard to run to that room, slip on the water, and fall.
  • 13 of 13: The doctor in Llewellyn's room will also join him, and the boys will automatically sneak inside.
