El Marrow

Immediately go into the game options and change the movement mode to "Tank Controls", then leave it on this setting throughout your game to get an achievement at the end.

Check the mail (getting the memo) and take the cards from the side table, then leave your office. Head along the corridor and talk to Eva about everything "What I did back in the fat days is none of your business. You know the rules.". Use the hole punch on Eva's desk "Gets the aggressions out, doesn't it?", then use your deck of cards on it. Go through the door on the left, and down into the garage. Head to the shack in the corner, and knock on the door. Talk to Glottis about everything before asking him to be your driver "It's like I'm not happy unless I'm breathing in the thick, black, nauseating fumes...".

Leave the garage again. Talk to Eva and try to get the work order signed - your boss will say no. Go down the main elevator, through the lobby and out to the street, heading to the right. Enter the side alley on the left. Climb up the rope and into Copal's office through the window. Use the computer - choose the response that instructs Eva to sign anything on behalf of Copal. Now head back out the window, down the rope and back into the office building. Head up using the elevator. Talk to Eva again and get her to sign the work order.

Talk to all 3 of the customers "Scaring the living is technically against the rules, but we all do it.", then use your scythe on the client.

After you arrive back upstairs, go straight back down using the elevator, and head outside. Go right and approach the festival. Get some bread, then talk to the clown making balloon animals. Get him to make Robert Frost, then 2 dead worms. Keep talking to him until you can say BANG! "Lousy bony fingers!". Now head back to the office building.

Enter the packing room (on the right as you enter) and fill one dead worm with each of the fluids. Return to the lobby and go over to the tube room on the other side. Take the fire extinguisher from here. Now return to the lobby and head up using the elevator. Talk to Domino in the blue office office next to yours. Go into your office, and put the two balloons in your message tube. Now head back down to the tube room. Head over to the open metal door and talk to Brennis about everything "I squeezed down one of these tubes, like a pixie!". Flip the dead bolt to make sure the door stays open when the janitor leaves. Leave the room and go back in again. Open the metal door, then put your punched card in the red tube and you will get a client.

Talk to Mercedes about everything "Well, I could do something bad right now if that would help.". Leave your office and head towards Eva.

Knock on the door and talk until you get let out. Talk to Salvador about everything "Precisamente, amigo.", then talk to Eva about everything "Join or Die! Again!". Exit the room, and you will return to the alleyway. Climb up the rope as before, and walk around the ledge. Enter the third window to return to Domino's office. Try to use the computer 4 times "'ARROGANT FRAUD' doesn't work.". Open the desk drawer and take some glowing coral from inside. Hit the punching bag 3 times, then pick up the mouth piece. Climb back out and head around to the rope. Tie the coral to the end of the rope. Now throw the rope to the ladder and climb all the way up to the roof.

Walk towards the pigeons, but they will chase you away. Use the Robert Frost balloon on the pigeons "Run you pigeons! It's Robert Frost!". Place the Robert Frost balloon in the feeding dish, then use the bread on the balloon - the pigeons will end up flying away. Walk over and take some eggs. Climb back down to the ground, and talk to the blue circle in the alleyway - you will take the lift down.

Give the eggs to Salvador. Go back up again, and into the shack where you were locked up. Get some auto-body fluid with the mouthpiece, then use it to make an imprint of your teeth. Head back to Eva and give this to her.

The Petrified Forest

Go right to see Glottis. After the spiders take his heart, head into the forest and you will see it caught in a web. Pick up a bone from the pile and throw it at the web, then use your scythe on the web. Run back and put the heart into Glottis - he will drive around and knock the signpost over. Get out of the car, pick it up, and walk to the area in the top left. Place the signpost in the middle of the clearing, note the direction and pick it up. Carry it a little bit in the direction it was pointing and plant it again. Repeat this process until a secret cave opens.

Walk down and get the key from the sign, then head back to your car. Now drive to the right. Once Glottis arrives with a wheelbarrow, talk to him "The marrow of these trees, Manny, they suck it out, it's like cement!". Flip the control switch to turn the machine off. When Glottis reaches the top of the tower, flip the control switch again to keep him stuck there. You now need to push and pull the wheelbarrow so that the two left pumps work together, followed by the two right pumps.

You can now drive up to the other area. Approach the green door and go through to be chased by a demon beaver. Go through again and pick up 3 bones from the pile. Head along the path to the left and throw a bone into the river. Start using your fire extinguisher, and the beaver will be extinguished as it jumps into the river. Repeat this twice more, then go back out to Glottis. Use your key in the padlock to the left of the open green door.

Approach the bar and pick up the gold bottle, then use it to taste some "Well, maybe just a sip...". Go back upstairs and talk to Lupe, who is in the coat check section - talk to her about everything "YOU'RE NOT EVEN LISTENING TO ME!!!". Head outside through the red doors, and go down the stairs - you will end up in the water again.

You will end up with a ticket printer and a VIP pass - do not show this to Glottis yet.

Return outside and down to the hub, then continue to the bottom right. Use the lever on the right to extend a bridge, then continue over it and up the stairs to see a crowd. From here, go right, and right through an open door. Pick up the can opener from on top of the nearest can of cat food. Return to where you saw the crowd, and go upstairs again. Go up the small set of steps on the right and approach the door to enter the VIP area.

Steal his dog tags. Climb back outside, and return along the path, then right over the extended bridge again and up the stairs to the very top. After talking to Carla, drink from your gold bottle, then walk through the metal detector. Just listen while Carla talks for a long time. Once she starts crying, offer to hold her metal detector "Here, let me hold that metal detector for you while you cry...". End the conversation with Carla and she will throw the metal detector out the window. Go back down the stairs until you see the crowd, then go right twice. Stand on the end of the platform here and use your scythe until you find the metal detector.

Make your way back out to the hub, then go up towards the Blue Casket and up the elevator again. From here, walk down and through the blue doors into the morgue. Talk to Membrillo about everything "Manny, we've given up. All of us.". When Membrillo looks at one body, use the dog tags on the other one. Give the metal detector to Membrillo and ask him to look for the dog tags - he will end up calling Velasco. Go back down in the elevator and return to the hub.

Go to the VIP area once more. Head right to find Nick Virago sitting by himself in the main lounge area. Talk to him, say you need a lawyer, and insist that he is the best "So, sorry, but I don't do... 'odd jobs.'". Keep talking to Virago about everything until he leaves. Pick up his cigarette case. Leave the VIP area and go up the stairs to Carla again. Give her the cigarette case and you will end up with a lighthouse key. Head outside to the hub again. Go left, and continue past the bees to reach the lighthouse. Use your lighthouse key on the door, then go inside to find Lola sprouted. You will end up with a card.

Based on this, use your ticket printer with these settings: 02, Tue, 06. Press the button in the middle to print a ticket. Go up one more flight of stairs, then use your ticket on the window to the left (not the right, as it will just get taken away here). You will end up swapping photographs. Enter the VIP section again and go over to Nick Virago. Show him your new photograph. After the cutscene, return to the hub.
