Tales of Monkey Island Hints
How do I get Santino's vote?
1 of 8: First you need to get him to talk. After you get Moose's vote --
2 of 8: -- you might think you were home free. After all, you just did an immense favor for Murray; he owes you, right?
3 of 8: But if you ask for a vote, you soon discover that gratitude isn't one of his special gifts. Instead, he just wants to hurt you.
4 of 8: We don't have to go that far, but there's an easy -- well, comparatively easy -- way to make him think Guybrush is going to be seriously hurt. It's tied in with using those gross valve-things around the place.
5 of 8: First, though, go talk to Noogie and tell him you'll get him a date with Morgan. This triggers him to give you a DUBMI manual -- with a loose cover.
6 of 8: That should cue you to look for another book that you could switch covers. Leave that for now and let's work on those valve things.
7 of 8: Once you have the Odd Protuberance unclogged, use it to go visit the Iron Monkey (like an iron maiden, but somehow cute rather than sadistic). Open it up to find --
8 of 8: -- a torture manual the same shape and size as your DUBMI manual, perfect. Combine the two in your inventory and go show it to Murray. He (and Moose) will now vote for you.
