Midnight Nowhere Hints

How do I get the cards out of the toilet tank?

  • 1 of 9: First you have to drain the tank.
  • 2 of 9: Then you can open the siphon --
  • 3 of 9: -- but your fingers are too fat to reach inside and get the cards out.
  • 4 of 9: What you really need here is a fishing pole.
  • 5 of 9: Or just a piece of thread and a bent wire would do it.
  • 6 of 9: You can find both those things in here.
  • 7 of 9: Look at Whip's pillow for the thread. (Use it to take it.)
  • 8 of 9: Look under the mattress with the blanket for the wire.
  • 9 of 9: Use the wire in inventory to bend it into shape, then combine it with the thread to make a fishing line. Use it on the tank to get six cards.
