Nancy Drew 18: The Phantom of Venice Hints
How do I get Tazza to let me in?
1 of 9: As you found when you knocked on the door, the security guy won't let you in because you look like a tourist.
2 of 9: But you need to do more than look like a native; you need to look like someone he knows. But how are you going to do that?
3 of 9: Did you notice the alleyway to the left of the club? Walk back there and see what you can find.
4 of 9: That dumpster looks pretty interesting; people throw all kinds of stuff away. Let's root through it.
5 of 9: Along with the funny stuff, there are two letters, one in English and one in Italian. Use the Italian dictionary to translate the Italian one.
6 of 9: Ah, very helpful -- Enrico is expecting someone named Samantha Quick, and all he knows about her is what she'll be wearing. That means it'll be easy to make him think Nancy is Samantha, if we just get the right outfit.
7 of 9: You can find most of the stuff you need -- red dress, white gloves, and blond wig -- at the costume shop in Campo Santa Maria Formosa.
8 of 9: For the black sunglasses, try the news kiosk in Piazza San Marco.
9 of 9: When you have it all, go back to your room at the ca' and change into it all. (It doesn't matter what shoes you wear. The sneakers are pretty awesome, though.) When you're set, come back to the club and knock on the door. If you've got the costume right, the security guy will let you in.
