Up, up and away

In this chapter

The big balloon from the props department, the pump, and three trips to the island for a key, flowers and rubber gloves.

The big balloon lies on the lower floor of PROPS DEPARTMENT, which has no way down from inside. The way in is long: ride the lift to FIRST FLOOR's upper stop, go right into PROPS DEPARTMENT's left side, drop down and walk back left onto FIRST FLOOR's lower floor, and drop through the gap there into a passage above THE LIFT. Follow it right to the steps at the top left of THE STUDIOS, up into A ROOM WITH A VIEW, and walk off its bottom left corner.

Leave the same way (A ROOM WITH A VIEW's pocket drops you onto the steps in THE STUDIOS), ride back down, and take the balloon to MGAMBA VILLAGE. Pick up the pump there too.

With balloon and pump, walk right to THE UMBABWE BANK, stand on the patterned spot at the right end of the jetty, and press action.

The balloon and the pump take two of Seymour's three hands, and they're needed to fly back too. So the island's treasures come home one per trip. The first: press action at THE GARDEN SHED's door for a studio key (it opens Rick Bracy's door in the maze).

Fly back from the island's left end (press action there with both), put everything down in MGAMBA VILLAGE, and pick up just balloon and pump again. The second trip brings the flowers, the third the rubber gloves.

Leave the gloves in MGAMBA VILLAGE for now (they matter in chapter 8) and the flowers too. The island also has a green arm: that's for chapter 10. More: The lower floor of the Props Department, Getting across the river, Bringing everything back from the island.
