BOSCO’S INCONVENIENCE SHOP
You,
Max, and Flint Paper have broken into Bosco’s Inconvenience Shop, in search of
Bosco. He’s been missing for a while now, and you’re worried about
him.
Talk
to Flint Paper and work through all the dialogue. Talk to Max and work
through all the dialogue. Climb over Bosco’s counter.
From behind the counter, look at the pile of Bosco’s Stuff, and
look at the keypad on the wall. You need to find the code for this
keypad. Take TOY
MOAI HEAD from the floor on the left. Climb back
over the counter again.
Explore the shop. Use TOY MOAI HEAD with the X-Ray machine
to get an XRAY,
then use XRAY with
X-Ray Viewer above the counter to see what’s inside the Moai Head. You
see a code - 5318008. Climb over the counter again.
Behind
the counter, use the keypad on the wall to automatically enter the code.
The lasers blocking the bathroom are turned off. Climb back over the
counter again.
Enter
through the bathroom door.
In the bathroom, talk to Max and work through all the
dialogue. Explore the bathroom. Look at the Bulletin Board to learn
that Bosco’s been ordering a lot of baking soda and papier mache. Open
the stall door and look at the wine rack. Take WINE BOTTLE from
the wine rack. Someone left the cork out of the wine, so it’s turned
to VINEGAR.
Look at both messages scrawled on the wall. Hmm, I wonder if that could
be a clue. Take some BAKING
SODA from the yellow barrel. Look at the model
volcano in the sink. If you read the scrawled messages on the wall, you
should have some idea what to do here. Use BAKING SODA with
the model volcano, and use VINEGAR with
the model volcano. The model volcano erupts, but it’s not a very big
explosion. You were wanting something bigger! Take some more BAKING SODA from
the yellow barrel. Use your BIG
GUN to shoot a hole in the yellow Industrial-Sized Baking
Soda barrel, then pour some VINEGAR into
the Industrial-Sized Baking Soda barrel. Now THAT’S an explosion!
In fact, it blew a hole in the roof! An alien spaceship flies overhead,
and locks you and Max in it’s beam.
Watch
the opening credits.
ALIEN SPACESHIP
The
alien spaceship beams you and Max aboard, where you finally find the missing
Bosco. Except… Bosco’s not quite himself anymore! Literally!
He’s half-cow, half-man! Talk to Bosco and work through all the
dialogue. Explore the room. Use the Central Device above the
Captain’s Chair, and work through all the dialogue. It’s important to
hear everything the Central Device has to say, but make sure you use the
following dialogue options.
- 50 System Settings
- Abusive
- 70 Terminate
The
Central Device changes it’s tone, so it’s more abusive towards you. This
is important for later on.
Look at the Lift on the left, and look at the PORTABLE AI on the
Lift. It’s well and truly stuck on there! Take BOSCO’S TIME CARD from
the Lift slot. You automatically insert the Time Card into the Lift, and
use the Lift to travel back to Bosco’s Inconvenience Shop.
BOSCO’S INCONVENIENCE SHOP - 1963 (MAMA BOSCO)
Well, this is indeed Bosco’s Inconvenience Shop. But
you’ve gone back in time, to when a young Mama Bosco owned the shop. Talk
to Max and work through all the dialogue. Talk to Mama Bosco and work
through all the dialogue. She tells you all about her baby-making
machine! When conversation is over, explore the shop. Pick up MODIFIED CARBON DATER from
the floor near the counter. Use MODIFIED CARBON DATER on Mamma Bosco
to get OVAL OFFICE
TIME CARD. Use MODIFIED CARBON DATER on Max to
get STINKY’S TIME
CARD. Use MODIFIED
CARBON DATER on yourself to get INTERGALACTIC FREELANCE POLICE TIME CARD.
Now take CHEMICAL
SAMPLER from the baby-making machine on the left.
Enter bathroom on the left.
Explore the bathroom. Look at Bulletin Board on the
wall. Look at wine bottle in the bathroom stall. You automatically
remove the CORK,
and you keep the CORK -
so it was you who turned the wine into vinegar, in the present day! When
you’re ready, leave the bathroom.
Use OVAL
OFFICE TIME CARD with the Lift on the right.
Use STINKY’S TIME
CARD with the Lift on the right. Use INTERGALACTIC FREELANCE POLICE TIME CARD with
the Lift on the right. Now use the Lift to return to the Alien
Spaceship.
ALIEN SPACESHIP
Wow, Bosco is fading in and out of reality. It seems that
the conversation you had with Mama Bosco caused a temporal paradox, meaning
that Bosco was never born! Oops! Talk to Bosco and work through all
the dialogue. When conversation is over, look at the Lift on the left
again. Take OVAL
OFFICE 1963 TIME CARD from the slot. You
automatically insert the Time Card into the Lift, and use the Lift to travel to
the White House.
WHITE HOUSE - 1963 (OVAL OFFICE)
You’re in the White House! But it’s a time before Max
became President. It’s also the place where Mama Bosco met Bosco’s
father. Talk to Max and work through all the dialogue. Now explore
the office. Talk to Agent Superball and work through all the
dialogue. When conversation is over, use MODIFIED CARBON DATE on
Agent Superball to get OFFICE
TIME CARD. Use OFFICE TIME CARD with the Lift on the
left.
Use Lift on the left again. Take STINKY’S 1980 TIME CARD from
the slot. You automatically insert the Time Card into the Lift, and use

STINKY’S DINER - 1980 (GRANDPA STINKY)
It’s
good to see Grandpa Stinky here. Little Sam and Little Max are also here,
playing on the arcade machine, but you are just kids in 1980. Talk to
Grandpa Stinky and work through all the dialogue. He tells you about his
special Tar Cake, complete with secret ingredient. Talk to Max and work
through all the dialogue.
When conversation is over, look at the Tar Cake on the
counter. Use CHEMICAL
SAMPLER with the Tar Cake to get TAR CAKE SAMPLE.
Explore the Diner. Look at the Letter Display on the back wall to see
that it’s a letter from the President in 1963. You also learn that the
case has a screw lose. Look at the jukebox. Pick up SCREWDRIVER from
the floor next to the jukebox. Now use SCREWDRIVER with
the Letter Display on the back wall to unscrew it. You automatically take
the PRESIDENT’S
LETTER.
Talk
to Little Sam and work through all the dialogue - he wants a new Artificial
Intelligence for his Bluster Blaster arcade game. Talk to Little Max and
work through all the dialogue. When conversation is over, look at the
Memorable Toast Display Case on the wall next to Bluster Blaster. Also
look at the Ship’s Wheel on the wall.
When you’re ready, look at the Lift on the left.
Take INTERGALACTIC
FREELANCE POLICE 8108 TIME CARD from the slot. You
automatically insert the Time Card into the Lift, and use the Lift to travel to
your Intergalactic Office.
OFFICE - 2108 (FUTURE SAM & MAX‘S OFFICE)
You’re
in your office… but it’s in the future! Talk to Future Sam if you like,
but he doesn’t have much to say. Talk to Future Max and work through all
the dialogue - he tells you about Stinky‘s Super Adhesive. Talk to Max
and work through all the dialogue. Explore the office. Look out the
open window to see spaceships flying past. Look at the Bulletin
Board. Look at the poster on the Bulletin Board, and look at obituary on
the Bulletin Board. The poster tells you about Stinky’s Stick-Tite
Adhesive, and reveals that the secret ingredient is Bitumen 13. The obituary
tells you about a Mariachi dancer, but you can’t ready all of it.
You can’t do anything else here are the moment, so use the Lift
on the left. Take OFFICE
2008 TIME CARD from the slot. You automatically
insert the Time Card into the Lift, and use the Lift to travel to your
Office.
OFFICE - 2008 (SAM & MAX‘S OFFICE)
You’re back in your office, in the present day. Talk to
Max and work through all the dialogue. Explore the office. Look at
Max’s desk, and take BOXING
BETTY REMOTE from the desk. You hear someone outside
asking you to throw them the remote - you do so. In return, someone
throws an EGG to
you. Talk to Agent Superball and work through all the dialogue.
Every time you try to tell him about your time-travelling case, he hypnotises
you to forget. Insert CORK into
the model volcano next to Agent Superball.
Use the Lift on the left. Take OVAL OFFICE 1963 TIME CARD from
the slot. You automatically insert the Time Card into the Lift, and use
the Lift to travel to the White House again.
WHITE HOUSE - 1963 (OVAL OFFICE)
You’re back in the White House. Show PRESIDENT’S LETTER to
Agent Superball. Despite his stoic attitude that you see most of the
time, he’s extremely shocked to learn that the President will be meeting his
mistress at Stinky’s Diner. In fact, he’s so shocked, he spits his drink
over one of the star cushions. Use your CHEMICAL SAMPLER with
the star cushion on the settee to get SUPERBALL‘S SAMPLE. Give TAR CAKE SAMPLE to
Agent Superball and tell him you want to patent the recipe. When he asks
you what ingredient makes it unique, tell him the following.
- Bitumen 13
Agent Superball agrees to patent the tar cake, and gives you
a PATENT FORM.
The secret recipe now belongs to you, and no-one else can use it. Look at
the envelope that’s now appeared on the President’s desk, and use CHEMICAL SAMPLER with
the envelope to get PRESIDENT’S
SAMPLE. There’s nothing else you can do here, so use the
Lift on the left. Take STINKY’S
1980 TIME CARD from the slot. You automatically
insert the Time Card into the Lift, and use the Lift to travel back to Stinky‘s
Diner.
STINKY’S DINER - 1980 (GRANDPA STINKY)
Show PATENT
FORM to Grandpa Stinky. He’s not very happy about
you stealing his ancient secret family recipe. He even takes the tar cake
from his counter and smashes it on the floor, thus altering the future.
Notice how the PORTABLE
AI fell from the Lift, because Grandpa Stinky wasn’t able
to use his tar cake recipe to create Stinky‘s Super Adhesive. Poor
Grandpa Stinky. You automatically pick up the PORTABLE AI.
Use the PORTABLE
AI with the Bluster Blaster arcade game. Watch the
cut scene, as the Bluster Blaster arcade game suddenly becomes the rude,
arrogant arcade game of the present. Little Max doesn’t like the sudden
outburst of insults coming from the arcade game, so he leaves the Diner to go
and meet some girls at the local dance. This won’t work, unless you
changed the Central Device aboard the alien spaceship to ‘Abusive’.
Time to go and see Mama Bosco again. Use the Lift on the
left. Take BOSCO
1963 TIME CARD from the slot. You automatically
insert the Time Card into the Lift, and use the Lift to travel back to Bosco‘s

on the right. Press the red ‘Home’ button
to return to the alien spaceship.
ALIEN SPACESHIP
Bosco’s
back to his normal, paranoid self. He’s not half-man, half-cow
anymore. Phew! Watch the cut scene with the 3 Mariachi
dancers.
You,
Max, Bosco, and the 3 Mariachi dancers find yourself in the Soul-Crushing
Room. Unfortunately, Bosco has a heart attack during all the chaos, and
the Mariachi dancers steal his soul - you have to get it back! Look at
Bosco’s Corpse, and look at Bosco’s Soul in the middle of the room. Look
at the 3 Moai Heads that surround Bosco. Now let’s explore the
room. Talk to Old Mariachi on the left, and work through all the
dialogue. He’s not very happy in this job, but he won’t leave until he
finds an answer to the age old question - Which came first, the chicken or the
egg? When you’re ready, leave the Soul-Crushing room through door on the
left.
You’re back in the Main Room. Watch the cut scene - the
Soda Poppers birthday is approaching, and the Mariachi dancers are not sure how
to deal with the situation. Walk left a few steps, and take EMBARRASSING IDOL TIME CARD from
the slot underneath the Central Device. Talk to Captain Mariachi and work

Lift.
ALIEN SPACESHIP
Eventually,
Past Sam and Present Sam end up on the alien spaceship. Talk to Past Sam
and work through all the dialogue. You can have a lot of fun sending Past
You to various places. Now talk to him again, and use the following
dialogue options.
- You need a time travelling phone booth.
- Ask Agent Superball in the future.
Past
Sam & Past Max dutifully use the Lift to speak with Agent Superball in the
future. When they return, their memories are slightly messed up, so they
don’t remember how they got here. Talk to Past Sam again, and when he
asks you how to get to the moon, use the following dialogue options.
- You need a
screwdriver.
- We’ve got one.
The result is that Past Sam gives you his RECORDING CONTRACT in
exchange for your SCREWDRIVER.
When you’re ready, use the Lift on the left. Take INTERGALATIC FREELANCE POLICE 2108 TIME
CARD from the slot. You automatically insert the
Time Card into the Lift, and use the Lift to travel to your office in the
future.

Note, and change the Official National Date to 6 September, which is Agent
Superball’s birthday. Now talk to Agent Superball using the following
dialogue option.
- Is today your birthday?
Watch
the cut scene with the Mariachi singer. Agent Superball even
dances! While Agent Superball is dancing, QUICKLY run left, and use the
Lift, thus trapping the Mariachi dancer in this time-period. You
automatically return to the Alien Spaceship.
ALIEN SPACESHIP
Note that Listening Mariachi isn’t here (he’s trapped in 1963,
with Agent Superball, heehee). Give RECORDING CONTRACT to Captain
Mariachi, who’s sitting in the chair. The Captain is very excited about
getting a RECORDING
CONTRACT, and immediately leaves to be a Superstar, and sing
songs about trains! After he’s gone, head right, into the Soul-Crushing
room.
Walk right a few steps to Old Mariachi, and give him the OBITUARY. He’s
disappointed to learn about the meaningless way in which he died, and vows to
stay away from the printer. But he still won‘t quit this job, until he
has all the answers to his deep and meaningful questions! Walk left to
the printer, and fiddle with it twice - you throw the printer ink into the time
vortex. Return left, to the Main Room.
Talk
to the Central Device, and use the following dialogue option.
- 60 Print Time Card.
You get a BLANK
TIME CARD. Use BLANK TIME CARD with the Lift on the
left, and you insert it into a slot with the other Time Cards.

THE BEGINNING OF THE UNIVERSE (BLANK TIME CARD)
You’re surprised to see Mr Featherly here. Haven’t you
always wondered which came first - the chicken or the egg? Talk to Mr
Featherly and work through all the dialogue. It seems that he cannot
leave this place, without violating the laws of the universe. Basically,
he’s trapped here, unless you find a way to help him. Ahhh, but you CAN
help him! Simply use your EGG with
Mr Featherly, and the EGG will
act as a replacement.
Look
at the red Singularity, which is floating in space.
There’s nothing more you can do here, so use the Lift on the
left. Press the red ‘Home‘
button to return to the Alien Spaceship.
ALIEN SPACESHIP
Walk
right into the Soul-Crushing room.
Show
Mr Featherly to Old Mariachi - he’s very happy to know that the chicken came
before the egg, so he finally leaves his post.
All 3 Mariachi dancers have left the Spaceship, so there’s
no-one to stop you from saving Bosco. Walk right a few steps, and press
the red ‘Bridge Button’ on
the computer console on the right. Watch the cut scene, as the
self-destruct sequence is activated. Quickly run left a few steps, to the
computer console that Old Mariachi was working at. Press the red ‘Suck’ button to try and
reconnect Bosco’s corpse with his soul. Unfortunately, Bosco’s corpse
only makes it halfway, before getting stuck. Use TAR CAKE SAMPLE with
the Time Controls near the Suck button to stop the Time Gears from turning,
then quickly run over to Bosco’s corpse.
Now
sit back and enjoy the final cut scene.
The End!
