LEISURE SUIT LARRY 2 (Sierra On-Line) (?)

Complete solution:

PART 1:

INTRODUCTION
Welcome back, Larry! It's been a while since we met you in Lost Wages. You've come to Hollywood to live with your girl, Eve, but it doesn't look like she's too interested in you. So, it's time for a new adventure, and who knows? Perhaps even real love! First, a word of advice. Walk around the streets of Hollywood until you know where everything is located. You'll spend a lot of unnecessary time trying to find your way if you don't. (Also, as with all Sierra games, you should save the game regularly).

LOTTERY AND DATING GAME
You start the game carrying nothing at all. Right now you are penniless. Go into the garage. Move to the right until you can't be seen anymore. Look in Eve's pants. Wow, you've struck it rich! A whole dollar bill! There's not much you can do with a dollar nowadays, other than buy a Lottery ticket. So go to the Quickie-Mart and buy one. Pick six numbers (any numbers will do). Now, off to the TV station to see if it's your lucky day. Go up the steps, inside the door, and walk over to the secretary. (Not a very bright secretary, I might add!) Give her your ticket to check the numbers. Oh well, she can't read them without her glasses. But she has the perfect solution, she'll tell you the winning numbers. Write down (or just remember) the numbers she tells you. When she asks you what your numbers were, just repeat those numbers back to her. (Come on. You didn't expect Larry to really win the Lottery, did you?) She'll tell you to wait in the green room. Go in, sit down on the chair, and wait.

Time for Larry to play THE DATING GAME. The Dating Game? There must be a mistake. Oh well, it can't hurt. In you go as bachelor number 2. (The game more or less plays itself. Answer her questions however you like; it doesn't make a difference to the game). Larry, this really seems to be your day: You've won a cruise with lovely bachelorette Barbie!

When you leave, sit down on the chair again. Now to receive your lottery check. (The lottery also happens without too much help from you.) One million bucks, Larry, you're a rich man! But where can you change a million dollar bill?

MOLTO LIRA, QUICKIE-MART, PASSPORT, BARBER, AND MUSIC STORE
Go to Molto Lira (the suit shop), and buy a swimsuit. The girl will give you change. Go to Swab Drugs and buy sunscreen (it's on the left wall). Go to the Quickie-Mart and buy a Grotesque Gulp. Now go back to Eve's house. Search the garbage can. Search it again. What's that? A Passport! Go to the barber and sit in the chair to get a haircut. (One thing there's no shortage of in this game is barbers.) Now, go back to the music store, go in, and talk to the girl. Hm! Must be a case of mistaken identity. After a short conversation, she'll give you an onklunk.

As there doesn't seem to be much else happening in Hollywood, go to the dock (it's the screen to the far right of the barber screen). Show the man your ticket, and he'll let you on the ship. Larry, you are about to set sail with lovely bachelorette Barbie!

PART 2:

MAMA'S ROOM, BARBER, AND BAR
Enter your room. Not what you expected, is it? Take the fruit from the stand. (Save the game here.) Go into the adjoining room through the door on the right. Who is that? Barbie's mom? Well, things aren't going the way you'd planned. Do NOT go near her bed (unless you have saved the game and want to see Mama in action)! Leave the room and go back in again. Eventually, the room will be empty. Now this requires some fast moving; Mama has the tendency to return while you are searching her room. Open the night stand, get sewing kit, and get out of the room.

Go upstairs to the barber shop. It's at the front of the ship. Sit down, and you'll get another haircut. Go up to the bar, and take the spinach dip (it's on the left of the bar). Go back down to your room and change into your swimsuit.

SWIMMING POOL AND ESCAPE FROM SHIP
Time for a swim. Go back upstairs to the pool at the back of the ship. It's hot here; you'd better put on sunscreen. Go into the water (type SWIM or you'll drown), go to the center of the pool, and dive. What's that? A bikini top? (Who leaves bikini tops at the bottom of a pool anyway?) Get it, then climb up the ladder and out of the pool. You'd better put on more sunscreen after that swim. Now, go and lie down on the empty chair. When the girl comes over, ignore her! Do NOT follow her: She's a KGB agent and will kill you! After she leaves, wait a few moments. Then, go to your room and change back into your leisure suit.

Now to get off the ship. Go up to the bridge (it's right at the top of the ship). Walk over to the control panel on the right wall. Pull the switch (it looks like a blue stick), then go down to the lifeboats (they're half-way up to the bar). Jump in the lifeboat. As soon as you start drifting away, wear the wig, and throw the spinach overboard. The ocean scene will take care of itself. Make sure you have the fruit, sewing kit, and drink (the Grotesque Gulp) with you.

NUDIST BEACH AND JUNGLE (RESTAURANT, HOTEL, AND BARBER)
When you arrive at the island go to the left. Larry, you should be ashamed of yourself: This is a nudist beach! The girl on the rock might invite you to follow her; DON'T! She's also a KGB agent, and will kill you. Go back to the right, and go down into the jungle.

The jungle scene is long, (a little) funny, and (thankfully) takes care of itself. You'll find yourself in a restaurant. Wait until you're seated (this guy has no respect at all!), then go to the buffet table on the left, and take the knife. Leave the restaurant and go back into the jungle. What? You've seen this before? No, you couldn't have! This time you find yourself in a hotel. Take the matches. Leave the maid alone (yes, Larry, unfortunately all the pretty girls in this game are dangerous). Leave the hotel and go into the jungle again. Keep typing GET FLOWERS. Eventually you'll be near enough to get them. You are now in a barber shop. Sit down. (You knew that by now, didn't you?)

Hey, you're back where you started! Go back to the nudist beach. (Can't keep away, can you Larry?) Take the bikini bottom from the rock where the nude girl was lying. Once again, into the jungle. When you get to the restaurant, just leave. Now, to disguise yourself: In the hotel room, put on the bikini. Wait, you still don't look like a girl. Put money in bikini top; that's better! But what about all that body hair? Back to the barber shop, sit down, and your transformation's complete! Larry, you make a very pretty girl! Go back into the jungle one last time, and you're once again on the beach.

PART 3:

CLIFFS, AIRPORT, AND BOMB
Go to the right, and walk right past the KGB agents. Very clever, Larry! They have no idea who you are. Now to get over past these cliffs. (Look tough, don't they? Actually, I don't know anyone who has managed to fall yet!) At the end of the cliffs -- before the screen changes -- change back into your leisure suit.

Give the flower to the Krishnas. Enter the airport. You really could do with a haircut! (After all, it's been four whole screens since you saw a barber.) Go to the left, enter the barber store at the top, and sit down. Take the hair tonic. Now to buy a plane ticket. Look at those lines. Is there any way to clear the crowd? Go to the right and show the guard your passport. Go to the next screen and over to the baggage line. Take each case off. Eventually you'll find one with a bomb in it! The game takes over here. Yes, that's one way to clear a crowd (although probably not the most practical)!

TICKET AND INSURANCE
Buy a ticket at the counter. Go back past the guard (you'll have to show him your passport again), and past the baggage screen. Order the Blue Plate Special, but don't eat it! Just take the bobby pin from the plate. Now go to the machines on the right. Buy insurance. Well, I suppose a parachute could be considered insurance. Get on the ramp. (Has your mind ever wandered?) When you reach the end of the ramp, walk over to the counter. Take a pamphlet, then give the man your ticket. Whew! You just made that flight!

PLANE AND PARACHUTE
Sit down on the plane. Good thing you're slim, isn't it? As soon as the pilot finishes talking, take the airsick bag from the seat pocket. That neighbor of yours is a pain; perhaps if he has something to read, he'll leave you alone. Better give him the pamphlet.

Stand up and go to the back of the plane. Wear the parachute. Go to the door (you can't actually see it; it's at the bottom of the screen near the back). Use the bobby pin to unlock the door. Turn the handle, and open the door. As soon as the next screen appears, type PULL RIPCORD. Wow, Larry! You're getting pretty brave in this game, aren't you? You (typically) get stuck in the tree. Use your knife to cut the ropes.

PART 4:

KILLER BEES, ANACONDA, QUICKSAND, AND VINES Pick up the stick from the ground near where you fell. To pass the bush with the killer bees, go as close as you can to the bush (save the game first), and crawl underneath. Go down to the next screen, and wait at the bottom until the anaconda decides to have you for lunch. Once it starts to come toward you, type HOLD STICK. That's it! You've jammed his jaws! Go to the right.

The next screen is a little tricky, depending on which display you're using (I actually found this part easiest on monochrome). You have to cross the quicksand. There are spots that are marked in a lighter color: Walk on these spots. (Save the game whenever you make some progress.) After the quicksand, you find yourself facing a river filled with piranha fish! To cross, go to the hanging vine (towards the right) and type JUMP. Then immediately type JUMP again to swing to the next vine. Repeat this until you get across. One of the vines on the other side is loose. You never know when a vine will be of use, so take the vine. Now enter the next screen (either right or down will do). Sit back and watch a 5-minute cartoon: You've earned it, Larry! (Did you know that Larry was a computer programmer?)

CHASM
Now look what you've gotten yourself into! Out of love for Kalauau, you decide to help the villagers rid themselves of the evil Dr. Nonookee. When Chief Kennywauwau shows you the chasm, go back to the fire pit in the middle of the village and take the ashes. Go back to the chasm, stand in the center, and throw the vine. It catches onto the branch, and swings you across. How are you going to get back to your beloved Kalauau without that vine?

GLACIER AND ELEVATOR
Go to the bottom of the glacier. When you reach the steps, throw the ashes to melt the ice, and go up. What's that? An elevator? Now how are you going to get in there? Look at what you are carrying. Hm, make a Molotov cocktail! (This piece is very text sensitive.)

Go to the crevice on the right (where the steam comes out). Stand on the left and type PUT THE AIRSICK BAG IN THE HAIR TONIC. If you are told that 'the area is not conducive to bombing,' move a little, and try again. Next, light the airsick bag with your matches, and throw the bottle into the crevice. BOOOOM! You did it! The elevator door opens!

In you go! The computer takes over from here. Sit back and enjoy a 15-minute finale, Larry: You sure deserve it!
