I never even came across a boot! Where'd you get the boot?

That's odd! I thought that's where I found the rope?

The boot seems to not always be present. I restarted this challenge at least 4 or 5 times. The boot was only sporadic in its appearance under the bed. I wonder if it'll be in my backpack for the next challenge? Hmmmmm....

Elle,

Did you get the metal ring back in the Lab? You have to get it from a jar on the shelf behind the gramophone. Then when you get the rope and get back to the jail door you can combine them together.

CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE


I played the record machine but I don't think it did anything.
Back on the table click on the metal ring on the upper shelf, put it in your backpack.

Click on the stove to the left to get back to the window (I played with the Morse code and the light but I don't think it did anything).
Click on the helicopter in the window to exit the lab. Ask.com with the answer in quotes yields information on the author of the essay. You have to click a little to find out "where" to go.

Concord, MA


Whoops, I think you got put in jail. Click to the far right and look around. Click on the mattress, it moves aside and there are some strings/rope. Grab the rope. I clicked on the newsprint but couldn't read it. I clicked on the shoe and took it along (didn't seem to be needed). Click on the left side to get back to the cell door.

Click on the keys and you get close up. Open your backpack & click on both the ring and the rope. It gets tied together for you and you have to gently toss it towards the keys. Eventually you'll hit the keys and it will drag them to your door.
Click and voila! The door is open.

Look on the table and you'll see a puzzle piece, click on it and you get a closer view. Ta Da!!

Possible treasure location....


Spoiler
Click below to view spoiler
Maybe the treasure location has something to do with Ft. McHenry? This week's clue is "match the tune with an early drinking song." Wasn't the tune to Star Spangled Banner originally an old drinking song sung in taverns?


I thought I remembered reading a discussion about that location before. Maybe it was on the CBS site, cause I scrolled around the archives here (to make sure I wasn't being redundant and repetitive) and couldn't find it.

Ummm why do I have a TABLE and not a BED in the jail cell? I had gotten the ring, but I don't see a rope anywhere! ACK... starting over again.

Watching click to the right outside the jail cell to get to the bed. Elle keep trying. I tried from the side and kind of flicked it over toward the keys.

Ok, I did find the bed, but now I'm having a heck of a time getting the ring and the robe over the keys. Oh and btw... I ended up with a boot in my backpack. Sheeesh I'll try the side-to-side motion! LOL

Watching, click on the keys on the wall opposite and it will give you a close up of the keys, and the ring with rope attached. You then need to snag the keys with the ring, keep "tossing" it and you'll get them.

Whoami... I think you ans I are at least on the same wavelength. That location corresponds to the "early" mentioned in the tune.

I have to go along with Watching. The puzzle pieces seem to fit into that theme. What do you think Aus?

The puzzle pieces seem to be the National Mall in Washington DC. So Smithsonian seems logical.

Maybe it is something specific in The National Mall. The clue may make it more specific. My dh thinks its going to be the Lincoln Memorial.
