Hotel

Look at the fire escape and look through the windows at the clerk. Now head inside and ring the bell (just to be annoying). Look at the cane and the plant, then talk to the clerk - you will get the cane and the room number. Head back outside and use the cane on the fire escape to pull it down. Now head up and you will take the photographs you need.

Agency

Give the camera to Jeannine to have her develop the photos, then give the photos to Gaspard and he will reward you with 2 dollars.

Antique Shop

When you enter, Telesphore the shop owner will talk to you and give you a photograph of the stolen item. Look at the suspicious area on the wall, and the muddy footprints on the floor.

When he returns, talk to him about everything.

Examine the twins, then talk to the barman and buy a cheap bottle of wine. Talk to Alphetius and he will give you a lesson in bribery. Give the bottle of wine to the twins, then talk to them as much as you can. You will then follow one of the brothers out of the bar.

Strozzi Residence

Knock on the door, then pick the lock with your paperclip. Search the kitchen to find a herring. Try to search the living room, then use the lighter to start a small cleansing fire! Search again and you will find the Byzantine icon. Now enter the bedroom. Examine the twin and the photos, then wake him up with the herring. Talk to him about everything.

Harbor

Talk to Remy about Westmount, and he tells you the police will finish work at 5:00pm.

McCullough Residence

After talking to Remy, Romeo will have left the premises. Knock on the door and try to open it, but you can't get inside this way. Head around to the backyard (by going to the right). Try to open the cellar, but there is a locked padlock.

Harbor

Talk to Remy about the lock, and he tells you to hit it with a brick.

McCullough Residence

Head around to the back and use the brick on the lock. Now try to head inside, but the neighbor will see you. Bribe the neighbor, who wants a golf club to keep quiet. Head inside and take the golf club from against the wall. Examine the cat's skeleton with your magnifying glass and you will find a dead ant. Mrs McCullough will then see you and have a heart attack. Back outside, give the golf club to the neighbor, then leave.

Apartment

Talk to Mrs Malaki, who is trying to open the bathroom door with a crowbar. Leave the apartment building and come back in again, then take the crowbar.

Morgue

Use the crowbar on the body (you need to try 3 times to actually do it). Now search the body to get the denture, then use your taxidermy competence to improve her appearance a bit before you leave.
