LINK Communicating with DEADLINE
HINT Some advice
CLUE Like all good detectives throughout history, you will have to do a lot of legwork. You should check out the house and all of the grounds, examine everything, analyze everything, check for fingerprints, etc.; you must be diligent. If you suspect Ebullion in the sugar, have it analyzed for Ebullion. In general, it is a good idea to ask each of the characters about all of the others. Sometimes by comparing stories you can learn something. Keep an organized record of the results of your investigation.
CLUE Read very carefully the Inspector's Casebook that came with the game. Also be sure to read and refer to the Coroner's examination, the letter from Coates, and the police interviews with those who knew the deceased well.
CLUE If you find out anything that may contradict what someone has said or that might be of interest to them, ask them about it, show it to them, or confront them with it.
CLUE If anyone acts suspiciously, follow them. Watch what they do.
CLUE Much of what you need to learn will come out only if you keep after the suspects in a "Columbo-like" way (in other words, putting pressure on them until they react).
HINT Communicating with DEADLINE:
CLUE Some people find it frustrating when their words or sentence structures are not understood. The Infocom series of games is considered to have the best language-handling ability of any programs available for microcomputers. DEADLINE is among the best of this elite group. However, probably due to its real-life setting, some players expect more understanding. A careful reading of the Instructor's [sic] Casebook, especially "Dealing with Suspects" and "Commonly Encountered Terms," should be very helpful. Once you get the hang of it, the limitations will be less frustrating.

CLUE You can type TURN TO JULY 15 (or any other date).
CLUE Did you find anything interesting?
CLUE Do you think any of the other characters might be interested (particularly those affected by a change in the will)?
CLUE If you show George the calendar entry concerning the new will (July 8) in the afternoon, he reacts very strangely. Develop Hidden Question 5.
HINT What happened to the chair Mr. Robner was sitting on?
CLUE Artistic license? There is no good reason for it to be missing. Perhaps the author didn't consider it important.
HINT Is the wastebasket important?
CLUE Nothing much of interest here...
CLUE More interesting is what is _not_ here.
HINT What is the significance of the telephone call?
CLUE Did you try answering the phone when it rings at around 9 a.m.?
CLUE Did Mrs. Robner do anything suspicious afterwards?
CLUE Did you try listening to her call on an extension phone?

CLUE Shortly after 11 a.m. he becomes quite annoyed. Why? Ask him.
CLUE Ask him to show you the holes he is ranting about.
HINT How do I leave the grounds?
CLUE You don't. The geography certainly can't go on forever.
HINT Is the book useful for anything?
CLUE Did you try to read it?
CLUE Did you try to read the ending?
HINT Are all of the drugs in the house significant?
CLUE There certainly are a lot of them.
CLUE Have you read all the labels?
CLUE You should ask the other characters about them, particularly those who are taking them.
HINT Once Baxter has left, how do I find him?
CLUE It's too late to do anything with Baxter. You had six hours to deal with him.

HINT 1
CLUE Question: When should I listen to Leslie's phone call?
CLUE If you listen in on the extension, you will hear the same conversation every time. There is no way to hear more of the conversation.
HINT 2
CLUE Question: What is in the envelope?
CLUE You won't find out without opening it, illegal and immoral though that may be.
CLUE It appears that Mrs. Robner had a motive for killing her husband.
CLUE Have you shown the letter to anyone? It mentions others by name.
HINT 3
CLUE Question: What do I do with the notepad?
CLUE This is something you should examine carefully.
CLUE Is there a way you might make sense of the indentations?
CLUE What would Sherlock Holmes do? (You've probably done it yourself as a child.)
CLUE Cary Grant did it in Alfred Hitchcock's _North by Northwest_.
CLUE Try rubbing the notepad with the pencil. (Alternatively, you can hold it up to the light.)
CLUE Develop Hidden Question 4.
HINT 4
CLUE Question: What do the indentations on the notepad say?
CLUE It is clearly a note from Marshall Robner to Mr. Baxter.
CLUE It seems to be a rather forceful note.
CLUE It appears that Marshall is insisting that Baxter do something concerning a merger. There is also some apparent mention of documents and something about "Focus."
CLUE " plica " could be part of replicate or implicate...
CLUE The last line looks like "Reconsider before it is too late!"
CLUE Have you asked the other characters about the merger and Focus?
CLUE You might want to show certain people the note also.
CLUE Isn't it interesting that Baxter claims he never received the note, yet it isn't in the wastebasket?
HINT 5.
CLUE Question: What is George up to?
CLUE Did you follow him?
CLUE Did you try to hide so you could watch?
CLUE Try hiding in the upstairs closet.
CLUE Now that you know he disappeared in the library, you might hide there next time to see what he does.
CLUE Hide on the balcony.
CLUE Now that you have seen someone enter the hidden closet, you can discover the way to get in -- examine the bookshelves. (Alternatively, you could have found the way in without seeing George enter if you did a careful examination at some time after George has entered and left the button uncovered by the books.)
HINT 6
CLUE Question: How do I open the safe?
CLUE Have you asked anyone for the combination?
CLUE No one will admit to knowing it.
CLUE Do you believe no one knows?
CLUE What was George doing in the hidden closet?
CLUE You must time your entry to the hidden closet so that you catch George with the safe open.
CLUE Enter the closet about 10 minutes after George does.
CLUE By the way, don't forget to look in the safe.
HINT 7
CLUE Question: Who murdered Ms. Dunbar?
CLUE Who had a motive?
CLUE Who has the pen that wrote the "suicide" note?
CLUE Ask the suspects for a pen.
CLUE When you get one, try writing with it.
HINT 8
CLUE Question: How did the murderer get to Ms. Dunbar?
CLUE You might try hiding in the hall closet to see where he comes from.
CLUE If you surprise him in the master bedroom or on the master bedroom balcony, you will be killed.
CLUE Baxter used the ladder to reach the master bedroom balcony.
CLUE Develop Hidden Question 9.
HINT 9
CLUE Question: Is this the proper ending of the game?
CLUE Do you feel satisfied?
CLUE Don't you think you can solve the case without Dunbar being murdered?
HINT 10
CLUE Question: Was it suicide?
CLUE You must be kidding!
CLUE >>This space intentionally left blank<<
HINT 11
CLUE Question: What do I need to get a conviction?
CLUE You need a good case. There must be a clear motive, means of administering the drug and removing the evidence, no alibi, and no inconsistencies.
HINT 12
CLUE Question: How can I prove that Mr. Baxter was involved?
CLUE You'll have to come up with a motive. Develop Hidden Question 19.
CLUE He has a good alibi for the night of the crime. You'll have to destroy it. Develop Hidden Question 20.
CLUE You must also prove he had the means to carry out the crime. Develop Hidden Question 21.
HINT 13
CLUE Question: How can I prove George is guilty?
CLUE You'll need a solid motive.
CLUE "Love of money is the root of all evil."
CLUE A threatened change in the will would be a good reason...
CLUE Have you shown him the desk-calendar entry concerning the new will?
CLUE You'll also have to prove that he had the means to carry out the crime. Develop Hidden Question 22.
HINT 14
CLUE Question: How do I prove that Mrs. Robner is guilty?
CLUE She certainly had a motive -- Steven.
CLUE She also had a convenient balcony to reenter the house without Mrs. Rourke hearing her.
CLUE Was there any mud on her balcony or in her room?
CLUE How would she have gotten the LoBlo into Mr. Robner's tea?
CLUE She couldn't do it alone.
HINT 15
CLUE Question: How do I convict Ms. Dunbar?
CLUE What would her motive be?
CLUE She certainly had the opportunity to put her LoBlo in the tea.
CLUE How did he reenter the house without Mrs. Rourke hearing her?
CLUE She could not have done it alone. You'll have to find a reason she might help someone else.
HINT 16
CLUE Question: What was McNabb's motive?
CLUE Is it possible that Mr. Robner stepped on a rosebush?
CLUE Be serious. McNabb is certainly not a suspect.
HINT 17
CLUE Question: How did Steven get the LoBlo capsules?
CLUE This is a red herring.
CLUE >>This space intentionally left blank.<<
CLUE >>This space intentionally left blank.<<
HINT 18
CLUE Question: What caused the bruise on Mr. Robner's left temple?
CLUE It is interesting that it was the left temple, since the body was lying on the right side on the floor.
CLUE It is possible that Mr. Robner hit his head on the desk as he fell.
CLUE It is also possible that the body was moved for some reason.
CLUE There is no evidence that will allow a definite answer to this. It will remain a mystery forever.
HINT 19
CLUE Question: How do I prove a motive for Mr. Baxter?
CLUE There is an item of interest in the library.
CLUE Check out the notepad.
CLUE It appears that Baxter was involved in something called Focus. You will need to find the documents referred to in the note.
HINT 20
CLUE Question: How can Baxter's alibi be destroyed?
CLUE In his police interview, he said he was at the concert alone.
CLUE Before continuing, show Ms. Dunbar the lab report and follow up on the subsequent developments.
CLUE Develop Hidden Questions 28 and 29.
HINT 21
CLUE Question: How did Baxter carry out the murder?
CLUE How could he have gotten the LoBlo into Mr. Robner's tea?
CLUE He had to have an accomplice.
CLUE Ms. Dunbar delivered the tea and is obviously romantically involved with Baxter.
HINT 22
CLUE Question: How did George carry out the murder?
CLUE How did he get the LoBlo into the tea?
CLUE How did he reenter the house without Mrs. Rourke hearing him (or is she lying)?
HINT 23
CLUE Question: Why is this question here?
CLUE If you thought there were no more questions,
CLUE you might be able to deduce
CLUE something you should not yet know.
CLUE This way,
CLUE before you have developed every hint,
CLUE the fact that this question remained undeveloped
CLUE implied that one of the remaining hints was very important.
CLUE But obviously it wasn't.
HINT 24
CLUE Question: What do I do with the fragment?
CLUE Did you clean it off and examine it?
CLUE Do you recall anything similar?
CLUE Didn't you examine the teacup in the library or those in the kitchen?
CLUE If you count the teacups and saucers in the kitchen, you'll notice a teacup is missing.
CLUE Could the teacup in the library be a substitute?
CLUE The fragment ought to be analyzed.
CLUE What might the chemical that "is not a common medication" be?
CLUE One of the bottles of medicine was from another country.
CLUE Have the fragment analyzed for the medication you suspect.
CLUE Say ANALYZE THE FRAGMENT FOR LOBLO.
HINT 25
CLUE Question: What does the shoe size and depth indicate?
CLUE See the answer to Hidden Question 26.
HINT 26
CLUE Question: Who put the stolen Rembrandt in the attic?
CLUE See the answer to Hidden Question 25.
HINT 27
CLUE Question: Why is there both a living and a dead Ms. Dunbar?
CLUE Do you remember Dunbar referring to her identical twin sister?
CLUE Wasn't Mrs. Robner an expert in makeup and impersonations during her early theatrical career?
CLUE Wasn't Clement a plastic surgeon?
CLUE This was a very funny bug in the early releases (revisions) of the game.
HINT 28
CLUE Question: Is the ticket stub meaningful?
CLUE If you show Baxter the ticket stub, he admits that he was at the concert with Ms. Dunbar, but says that she became ill at intermission and took a cab home.
CLUE Dunbar originally said she was "out with a friend and we didn't get back until 10:30."
CLUE If you confront Dunbar with the ticket stub (and she wasn't present when you showed it to Mr. Baxter), she says "... we go to concerts, only occasionally, you understand. We went that night, the night that Marshall died. And then he took me home and that's it."
CLUE So, Baxter was at the Robner home Wednesday night but lied about it.
HINT 29
CLUE Question: Where is the ticket stub?
CLUE Ms. Dunbar has it.
CLUE Searching won't turn it up.
CLUE Follow her after showing her the lab report. When she sees you, you will make her so nervous that she will drop the stub.
TEXT Possible Endings
FIX
Do not look at these until you have finished the game.
A. Of course, killing yourself ends the game. Sometimes, if you try to
kill another character or attack them in certain other ways, the game
will end (often somewhat humorously).
B. Arresting someone before you have proof that it was a murder results in
a refusal by the district attorney to seek an indictment. If it is
Baxter whom you arrest, there are two variations on this -- depending
on whether you have seen the papers on the Focus scandal. In all these
scenarios, you are chastised by your superior for not being more
careful.
C. If you arrest George after seeing the new will or after seeing him in
the process of destroying it, the jury acquits him. They evidently feel
that destroying the will is insufficient evidence for a guilty verdict.
D. If you arrest Mrs. Robner after opening her mail or listening in on her
call to Steven, the grand jury declines to indict "citing, among other
things, a lack of evidence linking her with the execution of the
crime."
E. If Baxter is arrested after you have seen the lab report confirming
that Mr. Robner was murdered, the jury acquits him. They cite the lack
of a motive or the means to administer the drug. He is also acquitted
if arrested after you have proof of murder and the documents
implicating him in the Focus scandal. The jury feels the lack of means
of administering the drug without a struggle is a serious flaw.
F. If you arrest George and Baxter, the district attorney throws out your
case, noting that the only link between the two was hatred. If you
arrest them after seeing the new will (or seeing George trying to
destroy it), seeing the notepad note, and seeing the papers on the
Focus scandal, the D.A. spends much more time interrogating them.
Although he realizes they had motives, he decides not to indict them
since "no coherent and consistent theory could be proposed which
involved the two of them conspiring to murder Mr. Robner."
G. Arresting Mr. Baxter after Ms. Dunbar's death can lead to a number of
different endings. If you saw the suicide note, pen, or saw Mr. Baxter
leaving the scene of the shooting but have not yet established a motive
for Baxter to kill Robner, Baxter is found guilty only of the death of
Ms. Dunbar. If you have established a motive (seen the Focus papers and
read the note), Baxter is found guilty of both murders. If you have no
evidence that Baxter murdered Dunbar, there are two possible endings,
depending on whether you have proved a motive for Baxter to have killed
Robner. In each of these endings, the jury acquits Baxter, believing
that Dunbar murdered Mr. Robner and then committed suicide.
H. If you surprise Mr. Baxter on his way to kill Ms. Dunbar, the game ends
in your death.
I. If you arrest Ms. Dunbar after witnessing her meeting with Baxter after
you have confronted her with the lab report, she is later found dead of
an apparent suicide while out on bail during her trial.
J. There are several possible endings if you arrest both Ms. Dunbar and
Mr. Baxter. If you have no evidence of murder, the D.A. refuses to seek
an indictment. If you haven't proved a motive with the Focus scandal
papers, the grand jury refuses to indict them. If you have the Focus
papers but haven't seen the note, Baxter and Dunbar are tried -- and
several jurors believe them to be guilty -- but they are not convicted
since there is nothing relating the old Focus scandal to the murder. If
you have proof of murder, the note, and the Focus papers, you must
still disprove Baxter's alibi for the night of the murder (most of the
jurors will vote to convict, but a couple of them will feel there is
reasonable doubt). Only if you have gotten conflicting stories from
Baxter and Dunbar about the night of the murder by confronting them
with the ticket stub while the other is not in the room to hear the
story, can you convict the two of them.
