Part II - The Curse Gets Worse

Pick up the glowing ember and head towards the forest. When you see the map of the island, head for the shipwreck in the middle of the swamp. Talk to Murray for a while (it's obligatory) then head into the ship. Pick up the paste, the pin in the paper voodoo doll on the floor and use the wooden nickels with the gum ball machine. Finally pull the alligators tongue and the Voodoo Lady appears. You have to talk to her for quite some time (she explains what you have to do on the island etc.) but this is probably the largest amount of speaking you have to do. Leave here and head for Puerto Pollo.

Go to the theatre (side entrance) look at the pirate coat, pick up the dandruff (lice) and get the glove from the pocket. On the table, pick up the magic wand and use it on the magic hat. Pick up the ventriloquism book that appears. Go back out to the town square.

Head for the Barbary Coast hairdressers in the bottom of your screen and go in. (These guys are your pirate crew to get you to Blood island). Go straight to the pirate cutting Captain Rottingham's hair and use the lice on the comb when he puts it down on the table. Talk to Haggis and get a haircut. Use the handle on the chair once and kick (use) the paperweight. When Haggis is away, use the handle on the seat a few more times to get too the scissors embedded in the beam above you. Once you have them, talk to Cutthroat Bill (the Salty Pirate). You find he is eating a jaw breaker, so when you have finished talking to him, hit (use) him and he starts choking. Hit (use) him again and he will spit out the jaw breaker on the floor. Pick it up and leave the shop.

Go back to the top of the hill with the dye vats and use the scissors on the mysterious plants. Once you have picked up the flower that you cut, use the scissors again on the plants and cut your way through. You will find yourself on the top of a cliff, go and examine one of the items on the far side of the sign. A snake will promptly eat you. Pick up all the items to the left of Guybrush and use the Ipecac flower with the pot to make syrup of Ipecac and use it with the snake's head.

Touch the Pappapisshu bush and get the thorn. Pick up the reeds to the right and use the reeds with the thorn. Use the balloons with the paper weight and blow (talk) to the balloon. Once it has stopped, use the reed + thorn combo to shoot the balloon down and grab the vine.
You will find yourself in Danjer Cove, but there is not much you can do here just now so head back to Puerto Pollo.

When you get back to the town, go into Blonde Beard's (the chicken shop on the top of the hill). Give him the reservation slip that you got from the snake and he will let you in. Pick one of the biscuits up from the barrel and eat it. Use the maggots on the chicken and pick up the club card. Talk to the quiet patron and take the knife from his back. Pick up the pie pan and the pastry cutter from the ledge then talk to Blonde Beard. Give him the jawbreaker, which loosens his tooth and then give him the gum. When he is blowing a bubble, use the pin and pop it. Chew a bit of the gum yourself and pick the gold tooth up and use it with the chewed gum. Inhale (talk to) the helium balloon and use the gum. The tooth will float out the window with the bubble. Blonde beard will search you before you leave - but he will find NOTHING!!! MOOHOOHAHAHHAH!!! Sorry, where was I… as yes…

Leave the shop and use the pie pan in the mud puddle to get the gold tooth back. Now head though the arch in the town and up on to the hill. Use the pastry cutter on the rubber tree and get the plug. Now go up on to the grassy knoll and use the knife on the sawhorse thenl ight the rum trail with the burning ember. This will fell a rubber tree for use later on. Head back down to the barbershop.

It is now time to recruit your crew for the voyage here is how to recruit each of the barbers:

The Dapper Pirate (Van Helgan)
If you talk to him you will find that any insult you use is not insulting enough so use the glove from the pirate coat on him and challenge him to a duel. When you are up on the hill, close the middle pistol case lid and choose the banjo. Van Helgan will play sections then pause and play a note on its own - these are the notes you must play. Once you have completed that, he will start playing the banjo again - but you have no chance of following him, so pickup one of the pistols and shoot him.

Salty Pirate (Cutthroat Bill)
Show Bill Blonde Beards gold tooth and he will agree to join you.

Haggis McMutton
Challenge Haggis to toss the caber (you end up tossing the rubber tree that you felled before, so you win).

Now that you have your crew you need a map so…. Go to the beach east of Puerto Pollo and show the Cabana Boy your club card. Pick up as many towels as you can and use them with the ice water. Use the wet towels on the Cabana Boy and whip him away. Pick up the oil and head for the beach. Use the wet towels on the beach and walk across to the sunbather. Pick up the mug and leave by the gate.

Head back to the lemonade-selling pirate (Kenny), swap the mugs and buy some lemonade from him. Once he has gone, pick up the pitcher (you can leave the other mug) and fill it up with red dye from the vats.

Go back to Brimstone Beach club, use the bottomless mug with Palido and offer him the red dye. He will think he is tanned and turn over - now use the oil on his back and peel the map off.

Back in Puerto Pollo, go to Danjer Cove and use the rubber plug with the paste and then use that combination in the boat. Row the boat over to the ship, use the knife on the plank and go up on deck. Mr Fossy would make you walk the plank if it were there, but due to its non-existence he will tar and feather you. It is now obligatory to go and see Murray, talk to him for a while then go to Blonde Beard's. He will put you in a pot and send you back to The Sea Cucumber. Use the ventriloquism book with Le Chimp and once you have the map, leave by the window.

Go to the theatre and use the map directions up in the lighting rig to turn the lights on and off (Use the big lever to reset the lights if you have been monkeying about with them before). The cross will point to the grave on stage. Use the chicken grease on the cannon balls in the trunk and then use the spade on the grave to get Elaine.
