The Testament of Sherlock Holmes Hints
How can I get the bomb sent across without moving the cable car?
1 of 9: Look around for an alternate means of delivery.
2 of 9: Notice the high-up hand icon that's on one of the car's cables.
3 of 9: Maybe you could rig a way to send the bomb zipping along the cable so that it'd hit the reservoir before the goons could stop it.
4 of 9: Look on the floor to find a bucket. That looks promising!
5 of 9: Pick up the bucket, then combine it with the bomb in inventory to get the bomb placed inside it.
6 of 9: Now you'll need to use something to attach the bucket to the cable.
7 of 9: Notice that you still have the belt you got from one of the dummies in the theater building earlier.
8 of 9: Combine it with the bomb-in-a-bucket to create a "Bomb ready!" item.
9 of 9: Select that in inventory, then click on the cable's hand icon to get the bomb delivered.
