So about this here Monkey Head...

I bet there's a shitload of very specific items and trials I need to acquire and overcome to get to that thing.
![](2-somi_1228.gif)
This is going to be epic.
![](3-somi_1229.gif)
I can feel it.
![](4-somi_1230.gif)
Finally! things are looking up!
![](5-somi_1231.gif)
Oh.
![](6-somi_1232.gif)
Guess i'll have to get someone to hold it down.
![](7-somi_1233.gif)
Hmm, we need to get to the other side of the island, but we can't walk over this beautiful, stunningly rendered mountain scene.
![](8-somi_1234.gif)
Aha! A rowboat, that'll work. But we have no oars.
![](9-somi_1235.gif)
Malicious throwing of oars into a chasm, eh.

Rule #1 of life: Rope is useful in any and every scenario.

It's always something else isn't it.
![](15-somi_1241.gif)
There's always some obstacle, puzzle even, hindering my progress...
![](16-somi_1242.gif)
![](17-somi_1243.gif)
Oh shit.
![](18-somi_1244.gif)
What are you talking about, that's one sharp suit.
![](19-somi_1245.gif)

![](emot-tinfoil.gif)
He's lost weight. Never looked better.
See, even Mr Smells-Like-Rotting-Monkey-Bladders can see he's a smooth motherfucker in that suit.
![](21-somi_1247.gif)
![](emot-v.gif)
What happened to him?
![](emot-tinfoil.gif)
Oh, nasty accident. He was trying to put up a swing.
Uh, right.
![](22-somi_1248.gif)
We need that rope, corpse or no corpse.
![](23-somi_1249.gif)
But first! Another exciting episode of the Monkey Island memo drama, what will those wacky cannibals eat this time?!

"Please return our key to the Monkey Head."
"-- The Cannibals"
Well whatever, into the pile you go.
![](26-memo_07.gif)
I'm sick of this island and it's endless suspiciously perfect and vaguely inconspicuous trials.
![](27-somi_1252.gif)
I want to blow some shit up!
![](28-somi_1253.gif)
Gunpowder: A welcome addition to any situation.
![](29-somi_1254.gif)
Now we just need a spark.
![](30-somi_1255.gif)
Now, faithful readers we come to a choice! We have to choose between the following combinations of items:

![](32-somi_1257.gif)
![](33-somi_1258.gif)
![](34-somi_1259.gif)
But who the fuck cares because they all do the same thing.
![](35-somi_1260.gif)
Oh god. Health and safety was all over our asses on this one.
![](36-somi_1261.gif)
![](37-somi_1262.gif)
![](38-somi_1263.gif)
Oh shit! RUNAWAY!
![](39-somi_1264.gif)
![](40-somi_1265.gif)
![](41-somi_1266.gif)
That was...
![](42-somi_1267.gif)
Fucking awesome! I wanna go again!
![](43-somi_1268.gif)
![](44-somi_1269.gif)
Oh hey, we can get this rope now.
![](45-somi_1270.gif)
So it's come to burglarising corpses has it. Whatever, at least he smells better than Toothrot.
![](46-somi_1271.gif)
Oars, here I come.
![](47-somi_1272.gif)
![](48-somi_1273.gif)
Oh you're no fun.
![](49-somi_1274.gif)
What kind of pirate are you anyway?
![](50-somi_1275.gif)
To the water!
![](51-somi_1276.gif)
Next time, we take to the water and head to.... The other side! (I'm scared)
