3 of 10: A loud sound might do the trick.
4 of 10: You need to pop the Happy Birthday balloon above his head.
5 of 10: Maybe someone in the bar could help you.
6 of 10: That someone is the short dart player. You need some way to get him to cooperate.
7 of 10: Try questioning his abilities as a dart player.
8 of 10: Bet him that he can't hit the balloon.
9 of 10: If this option doesn't show up in the dialogue tree, be sure you've walked over and looked at the balloon.
