Admire your sense of gallantry with the singing girl
but worth checking the shower tray IIRC !. She wont mind.
Done! Excellent, and even better than before, Haplo!

Stuck! :) Palmer is in area where needs oil for elevator. There is a grill that "won't budge", two locked chests, and a locked gate. Garrett needs wax for key. He has frobbed switch that gives message "hope Palmer appreciates this". Switching back to Palmer I can hear the gate opening but can't find it. BTW I have now swapped back and forth and retried the switch to try to hear where it is that I no longer know if it is open or closed. Should that switch be 'down' to have the gate open? (actually it sounds like a portcullis.) My guess is that Palmer has to find the oil in the area he is in? If someone can confirm that then I'll search again but I hate searching if it isn't there. And why does the kitchen fire frob highlight?

Yes, Palmer needs fuel for the generator.Minor spoiler:
To transport fuel one needs some sort of container where liquids can be put into...Bigger spoiler:
...and Palmer just came by a place where a lot of liquids are in containers!The next problem:
Palmer definitely has no access to fuel - so switch to your better half. And don't forget the container...But:
Where can fuel be found? In the vicinity of generators, I'd guess, so perhaps start searching there...The rest is a matter of swapping again.

Fidcal,hi! down is for open up for closed but he will find out that room later on.For now take him a little back and have Garrett again at that kind of room with generator and bars.Also, Garrett is the fuel provider :)

I've found the readable that tells about the vault code, but I still can't figure it out! :(

It is kind of a magic image -you see something but it contains more -
only it is audio-based not visual.Within this little sentence there are 3 numbers and four letters.Don't just read it.Listen to what you read.An oposite example: r u str8?canetoad on 23/10/2010 at 10:36
I enjoyed this mission so much that I played it twice today.
First time on normal, taking about an hour and a half, then again on expert - taking the time to appreciate how clever and well planned it is. You've done it again Haplo :thumb::thumb::thumb:
Loved the idea of playing as two thieves, laughed at the dance party and found your note.
Thank you.

OK, thanks Calibrator and nightchild. Finally got that sorted out but it took me quite a while! Two items I never saw before. One seemed to need my last water arrow for no obvious target and the other depended on the route I took by luck. I'm sure if I had come across those by chance earlier it would have been obvious.
I wasted a lot of time trying to arrange contact points between Garrett and Palmer and eventually even forgot the route to one I had used before twice! So I had to go all the way back to the start. I also came across a third possible contact point and felt sure I had seen it from the other side but couldn't find it again no matter how I tried. Later of course, I did re-find it but then it was too late! Also found stuff where I could have saved myself a lot of grief if I had only known earlier! Oh yeah, found yet another contact point later!
This is absolutely fascinating gameplay. Don't know if anyone has done this cooperative two player thing before. I've seen it years ago in an old 8-bit game. But then I don't see many games these days except Thief & TDM.
I think all that remains is the wax objective. I don't recall any clue about this and as far as I know I've been everywhere. So I may well be back again later for help if I can't find it.

Not sure if this is a bug or I'm missing a script or if I'm just doing it wrong but... I have the candle. I try to'use' it on the highlighted blue key but nothing happens. I tried to use it on the highlighted kitchen stove but nothing. Tried leaning and dropping it on the hot stove to melt it but I get burnt and the candle just bounces off.
