Nancy Drew 17: Legend of the Crystal Skull Hints
How do I get into the meeting?
1 of 12: After Nancy gets Iggy to bring her the little pirate chest --
2 of 12: -- she'll call Bess and ask her to try to work her way into a Jolly Rogers meeting that's supposed to be happening nearby. The door to the meeting is down the alley to the right of Zeke's; go down there and see if you can just waltz in.
3 of 12: Well, THAT didn't go well. Bess clearly doesn't look like a Jolly Roger in the least.
4 of 12: She needs to have a skeleton man costume. Do you remember where you saw one?
5 of 12: There was one in the box of Bruno's stuff in ZeKe's back room. Oh, but it's closed now.
6 of 12: Yes, but there's got to be a back door. Go into the alley and look to your left.
7 of 12: Great! but there's a lock. How do we get in?
8 of 12: Nancy can give you a clue here, if you want to call her. It has to do with the one thing Bess has in her inventory.
9 of 12: Use the powder compact on the keys to show fingerprints where Lamont pressed the keys. There are five numbers; the one with the most powder on it is the first one he pressed, the lightest one is the last.
