WALKTHROUGH

The Screaming Narwhal

The chapter starts aboard the Screaming Narwhal. Pirate hunter Morgan LeFlay has boarded the ship to recover Guybrush’s possessed hand for the Marquis De Singe. Each time that Guybrush talks to LeFlay, they will move to a different area of the ship. Talk to LeFlay twice about any topic to move over to the seagull. Take the hook from the wooden railing:

Talk to LeFlay again to move upstairs. Open the inventory by moving the cursor to the right side of the screen and selecting the tab or by pressing the I key on the keyboard. Select the hook and then close the inventory by clicking outside the inventory window or by pressing the I key. With the hook selected, click the cable above Guybrush to slide down to the beam above the ship. Select the rope below the beam and Guybrush will cut it with his sword:

Talk to LeFlay three times to return to the top of the stairs. Turn the wheel: Because Guybrush cut the rope holding the barrel of fish earlier on, it will slide down to the other end of the beam. Talk to LeFlay twice to return to the seagull. Click the seagull and it will fly up to the barrel of fish. The seagull wobbles the barrel and it drops onto the plank, launching LeFlay over the side of the ship. Walk east and look at the map on the wall:

Select the Jerkbait Islands at the top-left corner of the map to travel to Spinner Cay.

Spinner Cay

Run north up the pier to see Elaine trying to settle an argument between McGillicutty and the leader of the Merfolk. Continue north up the stairs to the royal chamber.

Talk to Elaine and say "That raft ride by the docks looks like fun!" to receive the transit pass. Say "Well, I gotta go.". Select any topic when Elaine says that they can’t leave, and she will say that the three summoning artifacts have to be found. Select any topic when she mentions that LeChuck is looking for one of the artifacts on Spoon Isle, then select three negative answers before the option for "…Fine." appears. Go downstairs and look at the statue to take a fish eye:

Run east and enter the cave to go upstairs to the bait and repair shop. Take the bucket in front of the shop:

Anemone will appear from the pool of water as Guybrush walks toward the shop. Talk to Anemone and say "I need my mast repaired.": Anemone disappears for a few seconds and puts a new mast on the Screaming Narwhal. Exit the conversation. Go downstairs and run back along the pier to see Anemone reappear by the raft. Give the transit pass to Anemone and then use the raft to view a map of the Jerkbait Islands:

Select the smallest island on the map to travel to Roe Island.

Roe Island

Look at the manatee to see that there is a hole in the middle of it:

Use the locket on the manatee to take a blank piece of paper. Open the inventory and combine the eye of the manatee with the fish eye to make the fish eye of the manatee. To combine two items, place one item in the top circle at the left side of the inventory window and a second item in the bottom circle, then press the red plus button between the two buttons.

The two pirates will carry the treasure chest with the parrot off to a different island. Run south and return to the raft.

You now need to tell LeChuck the correct items that need to be used. Say "Use", "pearl", "claw thingie" and LeChuck will make the Merfolk key.

Talk to LeChuck again and say "You look like you are still struggling, need some more help?". Say "Use", "Merfolk key", "clamshell lock" and LeChuck will insert the key into the clamshell lock. Walk east and use the ancient tool in the other clamshell to open the altar. Walk west to the altar and take the prying tool below the turtle artifact:

If you got to the cliff quickly enough and used the bowl of melted pyrite then you can skip this paragraph.

Give the fake turtle artifact to LeChuck and the pirates will leave. Select any topic when LeChuck asks Guybrush what Elaine wanted him to do.
