Nancy Drew 27: The Deadly Device Hints
How do I get into the lab?
1 of 9: We're not going to let Victor keep us out just because he's paying us, are we? No way! A locked door is an invitation to Nancy, though in real life I'd think more than once about this.
2 of 9: If you look closely at the door to the lab, you'll see that there's a card reader at the far right. Clearly we need a keycard.
3 of 9: That's the kind of job Security generally does. However, Gray is not going to be helpful, as you can imagine, and neither is anyone else. So we're going to have to do it ourselves. And be warned, it's going to be an involved process -- even though I'm going to help you all the way (grin).
4 of 9: First, you'll need a blank keycard. You can find one --
5 of 9: -- in the workshop. It's in the cupboard on the left, inside a little sleeve in the door. While you're in that cupboard, pick up the colorful piece of paper at the back of the bottom shelf of the cupboard. You'll need it for this process.
9 of 9: Once you have a working keycard, use it on the card reader to open the lab door. From now on, it will just open; you don't need to use the keycard again.
