thanks for the options, mag. i think i will replay from picking up the alarm key and give aRdNeK's walkthrough a go and see what happens. i have nothing to lose. at first glance it seems to be basically the same w/t as yours with minor differences, robert.
Mag. after opening Alexei's trunk and reading Bennington's accusation, where do i go after being caught and getting the 'fatal error' message? p.s. Mag, please remember, i am following aRdNeK's w/t at this point. robert.

If you haven't finished what you were doing when you got caught - then do the second chance and do it over. If you have finished - Continue with the next step of the walkthrough then.
Mag.i went through all of the 'gift' business with Alexei but i couldn't actually get him to throw me out. does this affect the w/t any and if so, please tell me where. robert.
Mag. after progressing, i consider well, in the game and after reading the Dust and Dirt book and going out to the van, Brenda just says Hi/see you later, and does not talk further. where have i gone wrong? robert.
Mag. the to do list. - town's tunnels. find out what Deirdre s saying on tape. catch culprit. questions: checked Brenda's van - can't remember - taken business card- yes. why Brenda doesn't like Nancy - can't remember. robert.
Please help me out with this game. I'm stuck, have redone this game 3 times and am stucin the same spot. I have gotten the book from Alexei about the Tunnels. What am I missing here, I can't seem to confront Brenda inside the Van. I go in to talk and all I get is bye. I try to get the battery but can't pick it up. Please somebody help me before I pull all my hair out!! Thanks!

Tasha,
It looks like you have not examine everything in the van. The closest saved game I have is just before doing the jammer and suspect board done. Tell me if you want any or both of those.
hi Mag. i am once again reading Dust and Dirt book. i am also playing as Junior Detective. does that mean i have to click C option to navigate the tunnels later in the game? please explain this part of the W/T as i don't quite fully understand. robert.

No - you do not need to click on it - just remember what is stated for Option C.
At the back of the Dust and Dirt book you saw 2 pieces of paper. The first one is a puzzle. The solution for junior mode is C. You then check the second piece of paper and see several statements or criteria for your selection/solution.
You keep these criteria in mind for later in the game. At the last puzzle you will have to logically deduce where you need to go based on these criteria.
thanks, Mag. my real question should have been, do i have to solve the puzzles written on the 2 pieces of paper to navigate the tunnels as per your walkthrough or is just reading the book enough? robert.
