It's time to wrap up Nancy Drew: Secrets Can Kill and finally unmask the murderer. Unfortunately, it won't be so cut and dry so with the help of this walkthrough, we hope you finish your game in record time.

The Faculty Lounge

Untitled 91Now, leave the school and go the side (you know where the Teacher's lounge is supposed to be located) and enter through that side. You should get to a part of the school where you're looking into the Teacher's Lounge. Using the box knife you should be able to cut a hole in one of the windows and getting into the Teacher's Lounge.

Untitled 93There's a book there that has an incomplete sentence saying "__o was innocent." Huh? Who's innocent? Why don't you try putting the colored circles on that page to their appropriate section. Once you do, the name Connie Watson will appear. Well that strikes out one potential suspect now does it? Another memo in the file cabinet talks about a trophy and a masked winner saying: A trophy was not the only prize - but also money of a greater size. Remember the Judo article we read in Jake's locker about the masked winner? Who is it among the students that has a background in Judo? wasn't it Connie? Nah! Couldn't be! She's a girl. Or.. could it?

Hal's Secret

Untitled 98Now, open the file cabinets and pull out the student record for Hal. Check out his senior essay. Seems that Hal plagiarized outright and copied his essay out of the book. (Remember, this game was created in the 90's where essay checkers still aren't popular then and students could still easily plagiarize essays).

Untitled 99This means you should be confronting Hal sometime soon. Now then, time to examine other parts of the room. One of them is the memo by the phone with the letters: B4UCDNMEXMNDLF8R, translated into: Before you see the enemy, examine the elevator. Turn the computer on and use the password that Nancy's aunt supplied. U/N Eloise Drew and P/W O Wise Elder. The file cabinet will reveal that Aunt Eloise was aware of the missing book after all. The maintenance log will talk about the need to fix the video lab and changing the password to the boiler room. The password to the boiler room is note (remember that's what we deciphered from the Library too?) The printer icon will print a document that you can read up on once you log out. It logs the event of an exchange student and a two individuals in the Video Lab. There's a form number BR19LL5.K5YP14 that changes to Braille Keypad if you substitute the numbers with letters. Above the printer, you'll see a giant Periodic Table of Elements. Check out the highlighted ones because it will say: Search behind Boiler. Don't forget that now.

The Boiler Room

Untitled 68

Leave the Faculty Lounge the way you came in and geUntitled 48t to the Boiler Room. Head on out to the Boiler room and using the information you got from the Braille book, you'll know how to make out the word "Note". If not, allow me to enlighten you with this image.

Oh and of course, you can't get to the Boiler Room without changing disks. Yup, its a hassle but well you gotta deal. Once inside, why don't you go look around and pick up a pair of metal gloves from the tool box? Look around the Boiler Room and check out the plaque on the wall with the nubmers 1967 on it. Remember that.

Also, check out Emergency Instructions on how to configure the boiler's Power Pressure and Temperature. Make sure you take a note of it.

Pressuring the Students

So it's time to confront Hal, Hulk and Connie. Let's start with Hal first because I like to pick on the ones that aren't likely to kick my butt. Hal will confess to copying the essay and how Jake somehow found out and confronted him about it. Jake blackmailed him into doing his homework in exchange for keeping his secret. If you haven't yet, make sure you also ask Hal about Hulk's injury before confronting Hulk Sanchez.

OK Hulk's next because well since he's injured he won't mess with us so much. Confront him about the Drug Depot break-in and he'll be so agitated and won't speak to you anymore. Next up, it's Connie. Connect her with the Judo team, the contest and the masked winner. Same answer, go away.
