Nancy Drew: The Secret of the Old Clock Hints
How do I arrange the pies behind the curtain?
1 of 4: They need to be arranged in a specific order that someone will tell you about, so leave them until someone asks you to arrange them. This will be some time after you find the key to the safe deposit box.
2 of 4: Look at the piece of paper Jane gave you. Some of the directions are very straightforward ("Two large cherry pies"); do them first.
3 of 4: Some of the directions are more vague ("One large pie" or "Two cherry pies the same size"). Do them next using whatever pies you have left. The directions for Senior have more of these unclear directions, so you'll have to do some guessing.
