The Curse of Monkey Island Hints
Where can I get an egg?
1 of 14: Anything made of egg would be good enough.
2 of 14: Meringue is made of egg whites.
3 of 14: And those pies that the Wharf Rat is throwing are made of meringue.
4 of 14: If you were in the mime's place, you could get some meringue that way.
5 of 14: But you'll need to hurt the mime first.
6 of 14: Maybe you could do something to the pie pans the Rat is throwing.
7 of 14: The anchor that Dinghy Dog is offering looks pretty heavy.
8 of 14: He'll give it to you if you can stump him on your age or weight.
9 of 14: Have him guess your age to win the anchor.
10 of 14: In the regular mode, you can just slip the anchor into one of the pie tins and then ask the Rat to shoot the tin.
11 of 14: In Mega-Monkey mode, you'll have to make your own pie.
12 of 14: You already have the pie tin. Put the anchor in there, and now look for something that looks like the meringue.
13 of 14: Use the shaving soap on the pie tin to make a fake pie, slip that on the stack of pies, and then ask Wharf Rat to shoot it.
14 of 14: Now, all you have to do is open the gate and look through the hole. The Wharf Rat will shoot you with a pie, and you'll have your meringue (which counts as your egg).
