The Assassination

I can't get the best ending. Why?

  1. Presumably, you have found the sniper and know the password.
  2. Also, you know that Topaz can be made to kill the sniper for you.
  3. Meaning that Topaz must follow you up to the sniper's room. See the previous clue for help in this regard.
  4. Once you're in the sniper's room, Topaz will never find you in time unless you've helped him along.
  5. DROP something before giving the password; it's presence will alert Topaz to yours. Oh, and make it small or the sniper will find it instead.
  6. And HIDE or STAND BEHIND THE DOOR so that you won't get in Topaz's line of fire and get killed with the sniper.
  7. Then, HIT TOPAZ, and he'll never know what happened.
