Strange Conversations: Part One Hundred and Forty-Eight

Posted 2 June 2009 in by Catriona

As Nick watches the trailer for Tales of Monkey Island, in light of the news that the franchise will be revived:

NICK: Sigh. It fills me with a deep sense of joy, Treena.
ME: I remember last time you played Monkey Island. You started getting really cranky and then chucked a massive hissy fit and refused to play any more because you couldn’t win the diving competition.
NICK: That’s right!
(Pause for me to laugh)
NICK: There better not be anything like that in the new game.
(Continued laughter)
NICK: But that wasn’t in the spirit of Monkey Island at all!
(Pause for further laughter)
NICK: I mean, a sodding diving competition!

Alas, into each life a little rain must fall, no?

I remember needing hints to solve that one, though it seemed really easy once I knew the solution.

Also: Yay! Monkey Island! :)
