View Full Version : Skeletons in the Closet
ITT we discuss and try to guess what will end up in our lovable duo's closet from episode 3. Thus far, we have Brady Culture's 'fro, a hypno bear from Myra, and we'll hopefully have another memorable souvenir.
The potential candidates are:
A toy mafia head
One-Armed Bandit
The Bug
The titular Meatball Sandwich
but out of all those things, all I really want in the closet is a still tied-up Leonard!
Really, the whole reason I made this thread was to talk someone into getting Leonard into that closet. (And no, I am not joking about someone's lifestyle preferences either, not that there is anything wrong with that.)
Kind of late for that suggestion. Besides, he jumped out of the window into a truck loaded with broken glass, razor-sharp scrap metal, and Mesai Spears.
My bet is on the Gold Bear Head the Don had in his office. But I'm sure I'll lose.
My second best guess is the arm from the One Armed Bandit. (Actually, I'd like to have a real slot machine modeled after that one, complete with "You're on fire!" voice and icons. Only I want mine to be functional instead of just taking my money away until I take a screwdriver to it.)

That Gold Bear Head seems to be a fairly believable candidate from my perspective, even if we do already have a bear-type item in the closet already.
Or maybe it'll be the Don's suit, and we'll have to toss all the stuff together in the final episode to make another Max-on-Sam costume like the Sasquatch from HTR.

Yeah, I was wondering whether all the items in the closet would tie into some kind of wacky puzzle at the end of season 1.
Or, even better, Telltale could be thinking really far ahead (in the way the writers of Arrested Development thought really far ahead) and all the items we collect in Seasons 1-3 tie into one giant brilliant puzzle at the end of Season 3.
Or, (stay with me here), at the end of Season 1 in the final cutscene all the items in the closet meld together to create a giant black hole of eeeeeevilllll which suck Sam and Max into an alternate dimension therefore providing the entire setup for Season 2. And a nifty cliffhanger.
Phew...okay I'm done now.

They could always stick Jimmy in the machine whenever he acts up, too :D
That seems wrong yet oh-so-appropriate.:D

...and while we're at it, wouldn't it be nice if a copy of CarBomb showed up on Max's desk?
That is a terrific idea.

I can hear the description already:
Sam: "That's Max's newest play thing."
Max: (extremely excited) "CarBomb - Terror Edition! With realistic explosions on a miniature scale for maxium entertainment!"

I'm guessing that there's a coat-hanging bar thingy in the closet for a reason, so I think it'll be the Don's Wonka-esque suit.

Maybeeee... A piece of memorable rubble from the factory explosion!
I was certain it was going to be a head until someone mentioned the bear already in there.

Maybe put a beer hat on him and put some more cheese in there. ;P
I think Jimmy ate all the cheese between episode 1 and 2. That, and Bosco apparently stopped stocking them since everyone was trying to steal it.:p
AdamG
02/22/2007, 09:06 pm
Oh... Maybe that's where all the cheese went... Max probably stole it. That would explain the massive stockpile of cheese in the closet.

"Who" is like "he." "Whom" is like "him." "Who" does something, but things happen to "whom."
In this case, the current Mr. Spatula is a replacement for whom? The previous Mr. Spatula. :(

What about that meatball sandwich everyone was so worked up about? I'm sure it must have been lost in the shuffle at the end. . .
AdamG

The Mafia took the meatball sandwich back from Sam after he got it out of the one armed bandit... It probably finally met much delayed end in the explosion.
Looks like you got your wish! :D
OH Hot Diggity! Leonard Steakcharmer, how did you end up in the closet? Oh, that's right, I made this topic! That and Sam and Max playfully locked you there. It was truly enlightening to find that you were Nineteen.
Let's hope for another decent suprise in the closet as a momento from Abe...

honestly i do not care what is placed in the closet for episode 5 (i like surprises) ............. although i have a feeling that it will be the whitehouse mailbox. i also hope that the desoto is still donning its all black "presidential" paintjob................. (it looks more sexy than the other paintjob)

The president's head would be suitably memorable and morbid!

Albeit a bit predictable, but I don't think they will be able to fit Abe Lincon's hat in their office, so I guess it would work.
Either that or the George Washington Nutcracker.

it will probably be the president (i think the whole puppet not just his head) because max made one of his "can we keep it" comments after they broke the president
we can all remember culture shock when max asked if he could keep bradys hair............. and he did

He makes the same "Can we keep it" comment when you talk to Sam after the interrogation of Leonard. I don't know where he says it in Eps. 2, however.

We've already got one 'head' in there. Eventually heads stop being funny. I'd expect better. Honestly, I'd like that golden eagle statue clutching the gun and the wad of cash, but it wasn't really game relevant enough so I doubt that will be it.
AdamG
03/03/2007, 02:39 pm
I was kind of hoping for the head as the episode 4 soveneir too, even if head-related items are getting repetitive. I will not reveal why I think the head is the best one. :p
Dangerzone
03/03/2007, 02:45 pm
i think it will be funny if you open the closet and find brady cultures hair on the presidents head...........
i had a good laugh when i clicked on the presidents head in the pool for the second time and heard sam's line "its just the severed head of the president"
trying to shoot lenard gave me a good laugh as well............... someone should start a "funniest moments" thread for episode 4

So, Telltale, whas Leonard a last minute addition to the closet due to LKr's suggestion? Or just a very funny coincidence?
I guess the latter as he did have a few lines of mumbled dialogue which would be harder to organise in the short time frame between LKr's post and the gametap debut of the episode.
Don't forget the lines Sam says when you point various items to him.

Ooh, I totally didn't catch the string of "can we keep it" comments for the items eventually placed in the closet. Though I don't really remember that from the first episode. I'll have to go back and play through that again.

Having played the beta for ep 4, I will just say to you to read your answers you gave above and that is your answer.

I had 2 theories, one more probable than the other. Your answer doesn't really help me narrow it down with any certainty though. So if you'd be so kind as to say what was in the closet in the beta, that would be great.

Anyone get into the now locked closet at Sybil's in ep 4? No spoilers please, I just wanna know if it can be done, I thought for sure there was something important in there. I'm going nuts trying to open it. Or is it perhaps part of the ominous setup for ep 5?

So...if Leonard was stuffed in the closet before we even played Ep 3...that means that it really was Boris Krinkle in Ted E. Bear's impersonating Leonard Snakecharmer.

I said it as such since like Mel said, telltale made us sign a two page i left my answer like that since I am not sure if we can discuss about the beta even after the game release. However, if there is something changed from the beta to the final game, I will certainly not mention it at all.
All I said is that you answered your own question on both accounts from you saying it is problematic through there on forth.

All I am saying is that JP guessed right with his post.
Out of topic, but did you went to UC Davis? I am currently helping a professor collecting data for his research on rats and one of his assistants, who graduated last quarter, said his friend also play tested the ep 4 for sam and max. Wondering if that is you since there wasn't a lot of play testers when I was there for ep 4.

There's a UC Davis sticker on the back of my car window, but that's because I have family members that went there. I go to high school in San Rafael. And I didn't playtest 4, just 5. Unless I just forgot that I playtested 4, which isn't unlikely.

One of the C.O.P.S., perhaps? We don't seem to find out what happens to them.
On the other hand, since 6 is the last episode of the season, I wonder if the closet items will play some bigger part.

I can think of a very good reason - Max wouldn't be Max if he had Respect for Living Things
it would have to be something physical (remember their real possessions have Reality 2.0 counter parts, but not visa versa) and related to that case - the half elf costume would probably be too small, the goggles too obvious and boring, where as one of the C.O.P.s would be great - what with their ability to speak.
