Grim Fandango

Part 25

Graaargh, this should have been done two days ago. But my internet connection died just after uploading the last video.

Manny and Glottis are now under the sea. That cannot be good.

Well, durr.

Mano. Literally, "hand", but in this case it is short for "hermano", brother. So it is similar or equivalent to "Bro".

There's a shiny point there.

The pearl?

Let's see what happens when one tries to go to the dark waters.
Video

Yes.

Then Manny grabs it. Because he needs it.

Octopussub!

Bah!

"His" pearl? Since when it is his?

They follow Manny.

Pun intended?

Glottis seems to think so.

There is a way to distract the octopus. Here's a video
Video

About time, eh?

How can he smell him when he is not breathing?

In we go!

Then that room will have to be visited later.

Ew, ash mixed with fish eggs.

And through that door there is...
Video!

Meche is not being nice

Sounds hard.

Dialog time!

Manny
Come on, we're getting out of here.

Meche
Trying to steal my commission from Domino again?
Manny, don't you ever give up?

Manny
I'm not after any commission. I just want to get us both out of here.

Meche
Then why don't you just ask your boss for the day off?

Manny
Can't believe you think he's my boss. He's my arch-enemy!

Meche
I think he's your boss, you think he's my boyfriend...
...we don't seem to have a good foundation of trust in our relationship, do we?

Manny
I'm sorry I implied he was your boyfriend. I do trust you.

Meche
Well, I'm not sure I trust you about that.
But I'll tell you one thing that would convince me.

Manny
Name it.

Meche
Give me your gun.

Manny
What? What makes you think I have a gun?

Meche
You work for the most heavily-armed organization in the Land of the Dead.
Don't try to tell me they didn't issue you a gun.

Manny
I DON'T WORK FOR THE MOST HEAVILY-ARMED ORGANIZATION ANYWHERE!

Meche
You know, you're right.
There are those rumors of that revolutionary army that's been stockpiling weapons.

Manny
Actually, them, I work for.

Meche
Manny, why don't you come back when you're willing to deal straight with me, okay?

Manny
Hey, about that gun...

Meche
Ready to hand over your heater?

Manny
I would if I had one.

Meche
Right.

Manny
They didn't issue me a gun!

Meche
What, are you on probation?
I'm not buying this, Manuel.
Manny, why don't you come back when you're willing to deal straight with me, okay?

Manny
Hey, about that gun...

Meche
Ready to hand over your heater?

Manny
I would if I had one.

Meche
Right.

Manny
I think we need to talk.

Meche
Start talking. You're the salesman.

Manny
I have a lot of explaining to do.

Meche
Save your breath...
Domino's explained it all to me already.

Manny
You have a lot of explaining to do.

Meche
Wh-- ME?
About what?

Manny
Why are those children locked up in a cage?

Meche
With the wings those Angelitos have, they're the only things on this island Domino can't control.

Manny
Hey, if they can fly, let's set the kids free to go get help!

Meche
They can't fly THAT far, Manny.
But they can fly circles around Domino, and they can bite pretty hard...
Hee hee...

Manny
So why did you run out of my office?

Meche
I felt so embarrassed, and you looked so disappointed in me, I couldn't stand it any more.

Manny
Then what were you doing that whole year I was in Rubacava?

Meche
I was lost.

Manny
What did you--

Meche
I don't want to talk about that year, please.

Manny
Has Domino hurt you in any way?

Meche
Not as much as I've hurt him.
Boy, can that guy take a punch!

Manny
Why are you working for Domino?

Meche
I do what he asks only to protect the children.

Manny
Why did you take me out with that champagne bottle?

Meche
I told you--to stop you from falling into Domino's trap.
If you had made it on that ship then you would have ended up...

Manny
Here?

Meche
Yes.

Manny
Okay, I'll lay off the questions.

Meche
Great, now if we could just get you to lay off the cologne.

Manny
Hey, I'm a sailor now. We have to wear this stuff.
Listen, Meche...

Meche
Manny, talking isn't helping right now, okay?

Annoying timing puzzle! Yay!

Stockingget!

Back to the bottom of the sea, another video.
Video

And Manny acquired a kickass autochisel for it!

Hm. Apparently I did not capture something. Iam now confused
Checking the other areas.

Apparently it stops the conveyor belt temporarily. Or something.

Going down again.
Video!

GLOTTIS LIVES.

And that's it for now.
