Sam & Max: Season 1 Hints

How do I get Sybil to put me in her paper?

  • 1 of 9: What's the name of the paper again?
  • 2 of 9: It's the "Alien Love Triangle Times." So you basically need a picture with three, um, beings in it: Sam, Max, and someone who looks like an alien.
  • 3 of 9: Have you met Hugh Bliss on the set of Who's Never Going to be a Millionaire yet?
  • 4 of 9: Hugh isn't that little, but he's the most alien creature I've seen in a long time. Pity he isn't green.
  • 5 of 9: Or is he?
  • 6 of 9: Talk to him about his magic trick to find that he can change colors.
  • 7 of 9: Ask him to turn himself green, then ask for a photograph. Got it!
  • 8 of 9: Once you have the photo, give it to Sybil. Go down to the two newspaper boxes in front of Bosco's store; the one on the left should now have you on the cover of the Alien Love Triangle Times in it. Scandalous!
  • 9 of 9: And you don't need to pay for a copy; just take one.
