Space Quest V: The Next Mutation Hints
What does the professor want me to do now?
1 of 6: I think he mentioned something about cleaning the emblem on the floor of the rotunda. That's the room just to the outside of the ring where the classroom is.
2 of 6: Of course, you'll need cleaning supplies too. Fortunately, they're within easy reach. Look at the rooms along the inner ring of the Academy. Get both the floor scrubber and the orange safety cones.
3 of 6: Now you can take the turbolift down to the bottom floor.
4 of 6: I would advise dropping the three cones to make sure people don't get hurt.
5 of 6: You're ready to unfold the scrubber and then hop in it. Unfortunately, you need to get every last spot -- the sequence will stop by itself when you've finished. EGA users may not be able to tell when they're finished, but Sierra has a patch that will let you skip this scene.
6 of 6: Sit back and watch Quirk and Wankmeister walk by to admire your work.
