Thanks, everyone, for all the help. I'm well on my way, now that I've figured out the difference between tea and artificial tea. In fact, I would hgave the game wound up, but for one problem. I land on the speedboat as Zaphod, the multi-headed crazy man. I take the toolbox, and look under the seat for the key and the speedboat fluff. Then I head for the cliff, meet Trillian, make the guards drop their guns, shoot the guns, and exit east to the Heart of Gold. I do an inventory just before boarding the heart of gold, and I am indeed holding (as Zaphod) the toolbox, key, and fluff. But once I come out of the dark as Arthur Dent on the HOG, I no longer have the fluff, toolbox, or key. How do I hold them throught the transformation. I tried locking the fluff in the toolbox, throwing it overboard, but nothing makes it. Shouldn't it appear on the bridge the same way the purse and satchel do? Should I hand it to Trillian perhaps? I need the fluff for a later step...
