The Testament of Sherlock Holmes Hints
How can I get the brothers to leave their caravan car?
1 of 12: You'll need to somehow get something in there that'll motivate them to leave in a hurry.
2 of 12: Look to the left of the window to see a chimney pipe. Examine it to find that it was cut.
3 of 12: The cut section is low enough for you to reach, so what could you stuff into the pipe to get the brothers to scram?
4 of 12: There's nothing nearby, so move on down the path and explore the grounds further.
5 of 12: It turns out that what you need is in the theater building, where that Prince Woodville nut is practicing his acceptance speech for the crown.
6 of 12: After the prince is down and out, check out the dummies he set up to be his pretend audience.
7 of 12: To the right of the stage is one with a bright red coat. Click on its hand icon to get a close-up.
8 of 12: Click on the dummy's loose belt to take it, and Holmes will notice that there's a small bag attached to it.
9 of 12: To find out what's in the bag, use the pocket knife on the belt in inventory.
10 of 12: That'll get you some magician's powder. Maybe that'd drive the brothers out of their caravan car!
11 of 12: Return to the caravan area and select the magician's powder in inventory, then click on the cut chimney pipe to place it.
12 of 12: That's not quite enough, though. You'll need to cover the pipe with something to get the powder's smoke effect to all go into the caravan car.
