Recipe for Disaster/Freeing Pirate Pete/Transcript

Inspecting Pete

 * Player: How would I go about protecting this nautical fellow from the curse of the culinaromancer then?
 * Gypsy Aris: Hmmm... Wait a moment, my gypsy-sense is tingling...
 * Player: Erm... okay...
 * Gypsy Aris: Ah yes. To immunise him from the culinaromancer's attack, you will need to feed him fishcakes.
 * Player: Fishcakes? What, like chocolate cake with fish instead of chocolate?
 * Gypsy Aris: No... Like small bread crumbed fishy delicacies.
 * Player: Um... So how would I make those then?
 * Gypsy Aris: I don't know. I am a gypsy, not a cook.
 * Gypsy Aris: I don't suppose it occurred to you to ask the actual cook in the room right next door to us?
 * Player: Ooooh yeah... I'll be right back!

Seafood Special

 * Player: I can't quite remember how I managed to save that pirate...
 * Cook: The pirate? Yes, you used fishcakes didn't you?
 * Player: I did? Er... I mean I did.
 * Player: Out of interest, could you just help me quickly with that?
 * Player: Can you tell me how to make fishcakes?
 * Cook: Fishcakes? As in with fish eggs and fish milk?
 * Player: Don't be silly, that would never work.
 * Player: Can you check to see if there is a recipe for them?
 * Cook: Of course.
 * The Chef checks one of his cookbooks.
 * Cook: Found it!
 * Cook: Apparently you need Ground Cod, Ground Kelp, Ground Giant Crab Meat and Breadcrumbs.
 * Player: Where do I get Ground Cod?
 * Cook: Well, if you use a pestle and mortar on a raw cod that will grind it up nicely.
 * Player: Where do I get Ground Kelp?
 * Cook: There are apparently some kelp patches off the coast near Rimmington. Murphy knows more about that.
 * Cook: As for the grinding part, all you have to do is use a pestle and mortar on it, that ought to get it sorted.
 * Cook: Murphy also used to bring in Giant Crabs occasionally. He hasn't had any of them in for a while though.
 * Cook: You had best go and have a word with him to see if he can tell you what happened.
 * Player: Where do I get Ground Giant Crab Meat?
 * Cook: Well, Murphy used to bring in Giant Crabs occasionally. He hasn't had any of them for a while though.
 * Cook: You had best go and have a word with him to see if he can tell you what happened.
 * Cook: Oh, and there are apparently some kelp patches off the coast near Rimmington. Murphy knows about that too.
 * Cook: As for the grinding part, all you have to do is use a pestle and mortar on it, that ought to get it sorted.
 * Player: Where do I get Breadcrumbs?
 * Cook: That's easy, all you do is use a knife to slice the bread up into tiny, tiny chunks.
 * Player: What do I do with all of it?
 * Player: What did I do with all of it?
 * Cook: I'm not entirely sure. What am I, an encyclopedia?
 * Cook: I'll have a look through my cookbook while I wait for the ingredients.
 * Player: Ok, I'll go out and get all of the stuff and bring it to you.
 * Cook: Ok.
 * Cook: Is there anything else you need to know?
 * Player: Thanks! [If you have select an option]
 * Cook: No problem!

Murphy Ahoy

 * Player: Murphy, what can you tell me about giant crabs?
 * Murphy: Giant Crabs? Why, I used to haul up a few of those whenever I set my nets around Rimmington.
 * Murphy: Why the interest?
 * Player: I need to get some Giant Crab Meat and Kelp. Can you tell me where I can get some?
 * Murphy: Well, the only thing I can think to do is to go down there and look to see if there are any left.
 * Player: Go down there? What do you mean?
 * Murphy: As in under the water!
 * Murphy: Tell me, can you get your hands on a fishbowl?
 * Player: I'm sure I will be able to if I put my mind to it, why do you ask?
 * Murphy: Well, I know how to ring up a handy set of breathing gear that can allow you to keep air inside the fishbowl.
 * Murphy: You just put the barrel of air on your back, with the fishbowl over your head, and then dive over the side.
 * Murphy: It should hold enough air to keep you alive for quite some time.
 * Player: That sounds pretty dangerous.
 * Murphy: Not at all. I'll even weigh anchor with the chain somewhere easy to reach so you can climb out easily enough if you run into trouble.
 * Player: I'm still not happy about this...
 * Murphy: Well, I can't think of any other way to check if you come up with a better plan then feel free to tell me.
 * Murphy: In the meantime I'll wait, and if you want me to take you diving I'll be ready.
 * Murphy: By the way, why are you so interested in crabs all of a sudden?
 * Player: I can't tell you I'm afraid. The very fabric of space and time could collapse!
 * Murphy: O...k...
 * Murphy: Well, I guess some people will do anything for a bit of fresh seafood.

All Geared Up

 * Murphy: Ahoy there! Up for a bit of a swim?
 * Player: I certainly am.
 * Murphy: Great! I'll sort that fishbowl out for you.
 * Murphy attaches some tubes to the backpack and the fishbowl and puts a rubber hood inside.
 * Murphy: There you go.
 * Player: Are you sure this is safe?
 * Murphy: Sure! It's as sound as my ship!
 * Murphy: Want me to take you out now?
 * Player: Yes. Let's go diving.
 * If you don't have the items equipped
 * Murphy: Well I can't take you out until you are properly geared up.
 * Murphy: We lost three diving parties that way!
 * Player: Ok, well I'll just put my diving helmet and diving backpack on.
 * If you have the items equipped
 * Murphy: Ok, let's be off then.
 * Player: Ok, see you soon Murphy!
 * Murphy: Good luck, I'll weigh anchor. Climb up the chain to get aboard.
 * Player: Not just yet.

 * Player: I have all the ingredients for fishcakes!
 * Cook: Great! Just like before! I've been reading the recipe and I know how to make the fishcakes now.
 * Cook: It's pretty simple actually. All you have to do is use the ingredients on each other and then cook the fishcakes on a range.
 * Player: That's it?
 * Cook: Yes. I thought that there was a page missing from the cookbook because it seemed so easy, but it turns out it really IS that easy!

Perfect for a Pirate
