get her out of that game! Try to hit her with the BOXING GLOVE, but she’s
flailing around so much, you can’t get near her. Okay, shoot her with
the RAT CANNON instead.
That did the trick. Work through all the dialogue with Sybil. She
tells you about the C.O.P.S. team that’s moved into Lefty’s old place, and
she’s beta testing virtual reality goggles for them. When conversation is
over, look at VR Goggles on the settee to confirm that they’re broken.

locked. When you’re ready, leave the shop.
