Return to Monkey Island: Get a unanimous vote - walkthrough Return to Monkey Island walkthrough
Winning the vote is required to complete part 2 of Return to Monkey Island. Our walkthrough tells you how to convince all 5 pirates from LeChuck's ship to vote yes and how to deliver Murray to the other ship.
Last update: 27 September 2022
One of the major tasks of Part 2 of Return to Monkey Island is gaining unanimity in voting on LeChuck's ship. Our guide contains instructions on how to get the support of Iron Rose, Flair Gorey, Putra, Flambe and Apple Bob, and how to complete the report for LeChuck. In addition, we suggest how to get Murray onboard the ship of the pirate leaders.
- Get Iron Rose's support
- Get Flair Gorey's support
- Get Putra's support
- Get Flambe's support
- The report for LeChuck puzzle
- Get Flambe's support - continuation
- Get Apple Bob's support
- Get a unanimous vote
- Send Murray to Captain Madison
Get Iron Rose's support
You can start this task only after knocking over the cauldron and discovering that the pirate leaders are also looking for the Monkey Island. LeChuck's crew members refuse to support Guybrush's plan and must be persuaded. This vote has to be unanimous, which means you have to get all 5 characters to change their minds.
Iron Rose is on the main deck.
During the conversation, talk about changing her mind, and you will find out that Iron Rose needs inspiration. Inspirational Onboarding Pamphlet from the Load can be used for this. If you already have it, choose it from your inventory and give it to Iron Rose. Otherwise, visit the Load again - the picture above.
You will gain the support of Iron Rose.
Get Flair Gorey's support
You will find Flair Gorey below deck - you have to go a bit to the left. The woman will tell you that she has lost the knife that is stuck in Gullet's back. You have to get it back.
Go down to the Load. Again, go through the greased porthole you used to get out of the Load.
This time go left. You can interact with the rudder.
You will be underwater and have 8 minutes of air (you can go back upstairs and reset the timer).
Here you can talk to the imprisoned Gullet. He has Flair's Knife stuck in his back, which must be taken out (you can get this action after the second examination). Return with it to Flair.
You'll get Flair Gorey's vote.
Get Putra's support
Putra can be found in the Galley. The passage to it is below the deck, next to the place where Flair Gorey is standing.
Putra's favor is easiest to get - she will vote in the same way as Iron Rose.
You will gain Putra's support.
Get Flambe's support
You will find Flambe at the top of the mast, i.e. in the place where you used the scope.
During the conversation, you will notice that he has a joke book. You'll also find out that his favorite meal is Scorched Alaska, which Putra can cook.
Go back to the Galley and talk to Putra. Bring up the topic of preparing a Scorched Alaska. You will learn that Putra's dream is to become a chef. You have to help her with that first.
Take the Request for Promotion from the kitchen table.
Exit the kitchen and go right to LeChuck's cabin.
During the conversation, you can introduce yourself however you want - there is no risk that Guybrush will reveal his true identity now.
Try to hand over Putra's request for promotion. LeChuck will refuse and give you the First Swab's Report.
The report for LeChuck puzzle
The report forces you to find and document 5 messy places on the ship. You can add them to the list in any order.
The first place is the red spots on the main deck, created after you made the cauldron fall down.
The second place is the crates on the main deck, e.g. the ones on the left (the picture).
The third place is the rat on the lower deck, next to the entrance to LeChuck's cabin.
The fourth place is Putra's entire kitchen (choose e.g. a cauldron with soup).
The fifth place is the greased window in the Load.
Once the report is ready, go to Iron Rose - the quartermaster is on the main deck. In addition to the signature, you will receive a stack of papers to be signed by LeChuck.
Get Flambe's support - continuation
Open the inventory. You need to combine the papers you got from Iron Rose and the request for promotion from Putra. You will receive Combined Papers.
Go back to LeChuck's cabin and hand over all the documents to him. In this way, you will cheat LeChuck, who will also sign the request for promotion.
Go back to Putra and give her Stamped Request for Promotion. Putra will repay you and prepare a dish for Flambe - Scorched Alaska. Take it from the table after once it is finished.
Don't go back to the Flambe right away, because the meal is not perfect yet. Reach the cannon on the main deck. Use the knife on the tip of the shining stick used to set the cannon on fire.
Open the inventory to combine the tip with Scorched Alaska. This will make it hot enough.
Now climb onto the mast. Choose Scorched Alaska from the inventory and give it to Flambe.
You'll get Flambe's support.
Get Apple Bob's support
The ghost of Apple Bob hangs on the main deck. Start a conversation and choose the option about changing his mind. You will find out that Apple Bob is looking for entertainment.
You can get Apple's support only after gaining Flambe's support (see the previous point in our walkthrough). Climb onto the mast. Flambe will leave the Joke Book after receivving Scorched Alaska. Take it.
Return to Apple Bob on the main deck. Select the book from the inventory and give it to the ghost.
You'll get Apple Bob's support.
Get a unanimous vote
After you have convinced all 5 pirates, you have to repeat the vote. Start on the main deck and head right, reaching the location with the steering wheel and the bell.
Ring the bell exactly 1 time and then go left. Each of the pirates should now vote aye.
Send Murray to Captain Madison
This is the end of the second act of the game. You can get here if you:
- Stole LeChuck's map - we described it on the previous page of the walkthrough: Sail to Monkey Island.
- Convinced the pirates to vote aye - we've covered it on this page.
Reach the upper deck. Select Murray from your inventory and use him on the cannon. Interact with the cannon to shoot the skull. Murray lands on the pirate leaders' ship.
Finally, you will have to confront LeChuck after Guybrush is exposed. You don't need to be careful when choosing ripostes and other dialogue options, because this will end in only one way - Guybrush will fall off the deck and land in the water. You will advance to Part 3.
