Sam & Max: Season 1 Hints

How do I knock some sense into Whizzer?

  • 1 of 13: First, you need to learn how to jog someone out of a hypnotic state; you need a psychotherapist for that.
  • 2 of 13: Go left of the DeSoto to find Sybil's office and talk to her if you haven't already.
  • 3 of 13: You can't use the same tactic on Whizzer that you used on Peepers, unfortunately; Whizzer just doesn't stand still long enough for you to get him with the boxing glove.
  • 4 of 13: Bosco might have something that could help here. Try talking to him about his wonderful security system, B-Tads.
  • 5 of 13: B-Tads is triggered when someone tries to take something out of the store (which you discovered if you tried to take the cheese here). So all you have to do is find some way to make Whizzer shoplift.
  • 6 of 13: Of course, he doesn't have to be shoplifting on purpose; it's enough if he just carries something outside. He doesn't even have to know he's carrying it.
  • 7 of 13: Look around the store. What is there that you can pick up?
  • 8 of 13: Only one item can be picked up, and that's the cheese on the table next to the door. What happens if you put it in Whizzer's basket?
  • 9 of 13: Unfortunately he moves too darn fast, and before you can get the cheese in his basket he's back again. We need to do something to make him stay away longer.
  • 10 of 13: When he leaves his crate, he goes either outside or to the bathroom. What could prolong his bathroom stay?
  • 11 of 13: No, it's not Ex-Lax or anything similar. All you really need to do is keep him OUT of the bathroom for a little while, and he'll spend longer in there next time. So what could keep him out of the bathroom?
  • 12 of 13: How about if someone else was in there first?
  • 13 of 13: After you pick up the cheese, try to go into the bathroom; Max will go in, and then Whizzer will go and stay for a minute or two. While he's in there, put the cheese in his basket.
