Jack Keane Hints

How can I restore the water supply to the laboratory?

  • 1 of 16: Take a look around the outside of the laboratory for a reason why the water may not be flowing.
  • 2 of 16: Follow the path around to the right of the lab and you will find that one of the pipes has broken, meaning the water is flowing out and not reading the other end of the pipe.
  • 3 of 16: In order to fix the pipe you are going to need to find some plumbers' tools. And believe it or not, there are some close by. :)
  • 4 of 16: Have you noticed the elevator at the far right of the area yet?
  • 5 of 16: If you head into it, you will find yourself in Doctor T's underground airship hangar!
  • 6 of 16: And, of all the items to by lying around there, what do you find?
  • 7 of 16: Plumbers' tools! Perfection. :)
  • 8 of 16: Grab 'em quick, and take them back to the broken pipes.
  • 9 of 16: Use them on the pipe, and... oh.
  • 10 of 16: Looks like they have almost fixed your problem, but the water is not being directed well enough into the pipe on the other side.
  • 11 of 16: We need to find a tool to narrow down the flow of the water from wide to narrow.
  • 12 of 16: Think of a tool that might perform such a job, and go out looking for one.
  • 13 of 16: You need a funnel!
  • 14 of 16: Trace your steps back towards the boat and you will find one on the way -- it's green.
  • 15 of 16: It's outside the small house near the pumpkin patch.
  • 16 of 16: Attach the funnel to the left side of the pipe and the water supply will be returned.
