light the branch & nest in the fire pit? what the hell do you do on the plane?

How to light the branch and what to you have to do on the plane are
related.  On the plane you need to distract the stewardess so that you
can look (and take) a few things from the baggage compartments.

You don't need the squirrel's nest.  Other things can be used to start
the fire.  Killing the squirrel will hurt your karma, but it won't
stop you from finishing the game.

On the plane you first need to go into the bathroom.  Take the toilet
paper and put it in the sink (this is going to get messy...).  Now turn
on the faucett and ring the attendent bell.  Now race to the front of
the plane and put the egg in the microwave and turn it on.  Now
methodically search the overhead luggage compartments until you find
the oxygen tank.  You also might want to take your seat cushion....
