Escape from Monkey Island Hints
How do I appease the hippie judge?
1 of 4: Ask him why he gave you a low score.
2 of 4: He'll tell you that you need to mimic Marco's moves and give you the controls you need to do it.
3 of 4: Watch Marco dive, then repeat the three moves he does. Hit UP to do a Keelhaul, DOWN to do a Rum Barrel, RIGHT to do a Spinning Swordsman, and LEFT to do an Alpha Monkey. Hit these keys when Guybrush is running up the plank or just after he jumps from it.
4 of 4: You'll see one golden man symbol on the left side of your screen for each keypress. Each of the men should be standing upright if you pressed the right keys.
