Okay, I got a couple or five things in Perils that are bothering me, and here they are.

1. I know I need four rubber tubes for the kitchen, but I'v eonly found two that I can actually use. I got one from the refinery, and one near the beginning of the game, but I can't for the life of me remember where I got it. Any hints on where I can find the other two?

2.1 The little kid in cq5 wants a spiffy cola, and the vending machine (which I've dented pretty badly) doesn't open. Verna Lamel, who Jonas Fisher tells me owns the machine won't answer the door when I knock, and I can't get in. Any hints?

2.2 Is Verna Lamel the same Verna from Trail of Anguish? I know Verna said that she and Silus were goign to try to get jobs with the GSIP, and I noticed that there is a S. Perez on board the Corolis. Could it be the same people? Which leads me to think... do I need to talk to Silus (if that's who it is) before I can talk to verna? Hmmm. Something to try.

Sorry, just thinking out loud.

3. The tech in CQ4 is smoking a cigarette, and won't ge tback to work, so I can't get a wrench or a ladder. I think I know what I need the ladder for, bu the wrench is still kind of a mystery. I just need hints on how to get those items, NOT how to use them.

4. In the pile of RUbbish in CQ1, I keep seeing something shiny, but not able to get. I've been persistant, but no dice. Any clues, or do I not even need whatever that is?

5. Harris, in CQ6, wants some pretty jewelry. I have a golden necklace, but he doesn't want that. Or at least, it doesn't giv me the option to give it to him. Any hints there?

6. It also sort of bothers me that Kepler has disappeared off the stage. I don't like the idea that I could walk around a corner and run into him. I guess that's all part of the game though.

I'll drop off my massive inventory, and then wait for your answer. Thanks for your help in advance!
