The Moment of Silence Hints
What about a hook? Would that even work here?
1 of 12: Not really.
2 of 12: What could you tie to the end of your fishing line that would pick up the sign and hold onto it as you reel it in?
3 of 12: Some games make you chew gum until it's all squishy and sticky and then use it, but not this one. (How realistic would that be, anyway?)
4 of 12: The sign is probably a metal one, judging by its rusty appearance.
5 of 12: So how about a magnet?
6 of 12: You can find one in your agency's work area.
7 of 12: It's holding up a paper on a steel notice board.
8 of 12: Walk to where you have the screen where you can exit to the office kitchen or management floor.
9 of 12: Then cursor-scan the nearest set of cubicles.
10 of 12: One of the desks that doesn't have anyone sitting at it has a steel notice board that you can get a close-up of.
11 of 12: In the close-up, scan the little red magnets on the board until you find one you can take.
12 of 12: Once you have the magnet, click it on your pole-and-line setup to complete the fishing pole.
