In Return to Monkey Island, one of the main goals is to sneak onto Captain LeChuck's ship; however, Guybrush is unable to accomplish this while appearing to be himself. To pull it off, you'll need a mop and a disguise. The first significant challenge in the game is this multi-step puzzle, but we can guide you through it from start to finish. By doing this, the second portion of the game will begin and you will board the ship.
How to get a mop
Starting with the mop, please. You cannot just accept the cook's word for it if you have ever been to the Scumm Bar kitchen. Return there to hear a lengthy explanation of why you should manufacture your own mop and find out about the restaurant's current nightmare patron. Finding the endangered mop handle tree is the next step. We have a guy for that, thank goodness.
Go to Low Street and get inside Wally's Maps. Speak with him to find out that in order to draw you a map to the site, he requires a sample of the wood from the Mop Handle Tree. Grab a monocle from the display case next to Wally before you leave the store. They are free samples, so leave and come back in to get a second one. Cross the street and go inside the voodoo store. In the center, a frog is sitting, and there is a knife. Choose both. You must employ the frog, known as a "Forgiveness Frog," to express your regret to Governor Carla. However, the apologies must be sincere, and the prerequisites vary depending on who paid for the game.
Check Carla's election poster to the left of the Scumm Bar at the docks as well as the plaque on Low Street for the right information. The former tells you the name of an island (Santo Domingo was ours), while the latter shares her campaign slogan (Hard on Softness was ours). Open your inventory and write your apologies on the frog using your feather pen. Make sure you address it to her and provide the appropriate information.
Give Carla the frog and proceed to the governor's mansion. After she has pardoned you, you can take a book off her shelf. You want the one titled "Ingredients." Take that, then return to the Scumm Bar. The cook will begin preparing meals for that nasty customer as soon as you give them to him. By using your knife to cut a sliver from his mop while he is preoccupied with this, you can You'll receive a map if you take this back to Wally.
We're getting close. Enter the maze section by going to the forest. For the right course of action, consult Wally's map, which is likewise randomized like the details of Carla's apology. The screenshot above shows a variety of plant life, including glowing mushrooms, purple flowers, and carnivorous plants. Use the map to decide which way to take at each junction, which is designated by one of those. You will eventually arrive at the Endangered Mop Handle tree by doing this. Cut the handle off with your knife. Your mop needs just one more step to be finished. Go to the mostly deserted shipyard. You can pick up something called a "weird mass," though. In the end, it was a sponge. This is everything you need, in addition to your handle, to create a mop.
How to get a disguise
Then the disguise is up next. You can find a magical eye patch in the museum, which is located across from the entrance to the forest maze. Although it is secured in a display cabinet, that isn't exactly Fort Knox. Make the two monocles in your possession stronger by combining them, and then use those to check the serial number on the display case. You are aware that this can be used to create a key if you have spoken with Locke Smith on High Street. Get the box of parrot food mix off the shelf in the storeroom before you depart.
Visit Locke Smith right away. Offer the box of parrot food mix after supplying the serial number you noted down to obtain a key for the display case. You can take the crackers that are sitting nearby in return. Visit the museum once more to complete your theft. Give the security parrot a cracker, and while the parrot is busy, quickly take the eye patch with your new key.
However, the eye patch is useless without its magical abilities. Show it to the Voodoo Lady when you return to her store. She claims that in order to reawaken the power, she requires the "bite of a thousand needles." Although it may sound unusual, this is quite simple to acquire. Do you recall the carnivorous plants from the forest maze? When you get back there, use your knife to chop off the heads of all of them. The Voodoo Lady will refresh your eye patch if you give her that.
How to board LeChuck’s ship
Finally, it's time to set sail. Use the eye patch when you go back to the docks, but make sure you're standing far enough away from quartermaster Iron Rose. When asked, provide her with your homemade mop, then sneak up on her.
