You can barely move in all of this junk; you can barely see as well. The kitchen is to the west. >search junk There's nothing more to be found, unfortunately. >get junk That's hardly portable. >w You come out of the closet. Kitchen of Evil You've made it to Doctor Nova's kitchen, a feat that few have accomplished (and even less have lived to talk about!). You eye the place up, trying to see what one so evil munches on when plotting the pain, death, and suffering of innocents. There seems to be exits to the north, south, and east. You can see a refrigerator (which is closed) here. >n Thrappy's Room This is the bedroom of Doctor Nova's brother, Thrappy. You can barely see the large posters of clowns and horses and furry animals because of all of the plush dolls piled high on the floor and bed. There's a doorway to the north and south. Thrappy happens to be in the room, and with the way that he's grinning at you, you can tell that he's really happy to get a visitor... It might be difficult to get past him to the north. >x thrappy Thrappy, as always, is the picture of innocence. He's Doctor Nova's younger brother, but he towers over both you and Nova and, in fact, most people you know. It is both fortunate and unfortunate that he wasn't 'blessed' with Nova's evil genious. In fact, he has the mental capacity of a four or five year old. You've always liked the guy (as you've met him on several other quests to destroy Nova), but today, you'll be damned if anyone, even Thrappy, can keep you from your goal of having Nova good and dead by the end of this mess. Thrappy is very proud of a flower in the lapel of the sport jacket he's wearing, pointing it out every three seconds. >x flower A pretty, bright carnation. >ask thrappy about flower "My brother gave this to me! He's the bestest!" he exclaims with glee. >i You are carrying: a trophy a jet booster a long, sharp blade a dustbuster an eggplant a rubber chicken a bottle of Doctor Bronner's EUCALYPTUS 18-in-1 a roll of duct tape >turn on dustbuster That's not something you can switch. >get flower Aw, c'mon, you don't really want to take away his pride and joy, do you? >yes That was a rhetorical question. >get flower Please, give it some more thought, will you? Don't do it. >g Lacking any trace of a conscience, you swipe Thrappy's flower in one swift motion... Thrappy sits there, for almost a whole minute, trying to comprehend your fiendish act. Then, he breaks down into tears and runs out of the room. > Hot key -- Undo one turn Thrappy's Room [Previous turn undone.] >save Ok. >get flower Lacking any trace of a conscience, you swipe Thrappy's flower in one swift motion... Thrappy sits there, for almost a whole minute, trying to comprehend your fiendish act. Then, he breaks down into tears and runs out of the room. >n The Malicious Moat of Mayhem Now, this is strange. This room is barren, except for a pool of florescent green liquid that blocks your path to the doorway at the north end of the room. Judging by the odor, you'd guess that it's novecilline. To the south is Thrappy's room. >[Eeeagh! 'fluorescent'] That's not a verb I recognise. >x liquid Green, glowing scary stuff, it is. Scary stuff. Shudder, shudder. >g Green, glowing scary stuff, it is. Scary stuff. Shudder, shudder. >get it That's hardly portable. >pour soap in liquid That's not a verb I recognise. >put soap in liquid The bottle of Doctor Bronner's EUCALYPTUS 18-in-1 disappears beneath the murky, green surface. Yuck. >undo The Malicious Moat of Mayhem [Previous turn undone.] >n There's no way to get across the moat! >enter moat Egads, it's a grisly site... As soon as you step into the moat, your body starts expanding in all directions. Within seconds, your body fills up the empty space in the room, and since your weak flesh has no chance against the stone walls, in no time, your internal organs are paying the price. *** You have died *** In that game you scored 0 out of a possible 0, in 65 turns.
