Jack the Ripper Hints
How do I get into the keybox?
1 of 8: You need something to jimmy the lock.
2 of 8: More specifically, you need something that can reach around that bolt and flip the latch inside.
3 of 8: It needs to be thin, strong, and curved --
4 of 8: -- and it can be found here in the hospital.
5 of 8: Go back upstairs and down the hall towards Tumbletwo's office.
6 of 8: Before you get there, stop at the cart with surgical tools on it and take the bent forceps (which the game calls a "medical grip").
7 of 8: Use the forceps on the keybox.
8 of 8: There are two takeable keys; take them both.
