Hopelessly stuck :S
 

I completed reel 1 and 3 and now i'm at the tomb and i'm supposed to cut the bust on two parts but in order to get that i must be cursed with the "bad luck hex"... However i didn't ask Natasha (or was it Nefertiti in reel 3 i don't know) about why the old man hates Stuttgartarians and now i can't get the bad luck curse and i can't go back to reel 1 or 3 because i've completed them already... Guess i should restart the whole game :(

I don't recall doing that in reel 3. I'd suggest talking to the other moles in reel 2.

Talked with Benny, Nefertiti and Amelia... even talked with the old man himself... :S

Try clicking on the brochures in Grandpa's room.

You don't have to ask anyone why, you just have to have read the love note, which I think you have to do to complete reel 3.

I think I did it before getting the love note. The one thing that I remember for certain is that I clicked on the brochures to begin talking with grandpa and get cursed.

Nope, without reading the Lovenote the proper location doesn't show up, just 3 bogus options...

I'm pretty sure you can't do it without reading the love note. I clicked on the brochures many times, and the only time I had the option to say I was from Stuttgart was after I saw the love letter.

After you read the love note on reel 3, all you have to do is click the brochures next to grandpa and choose Stuttgart, and he'll curse you. You don't have to know why he hates stuttgarterians, you just have to know he hates them.

You cannot complete reel 3 without reading the love note.
