It has a 1024 by 1024 pixel color monitor, a mouse, an attached hard disk, and a local area network connection." *snicker*) Turn on the PC. Type 872325412 for your login and type uhlersoth for your password. Click box. Click paper. Read your paper. Keep clicking more until you faint. Go down, then south. Get the stone. Then just wait. When you wake up in the lab again, examine the PC. Wait while the hacker comes over and checks things out. Go south and west. Open the fridge and get the carton and the Coke. (Drink the Coke when you are feeling tired.) Open the carton. Open the microwave and put the carton of Chinese food inside. Close the microwave. Press 5, 0, 0, HI, and START. After the microwave finishes, open it and get the food. Return east and north to the Terminal Room and give the Chinese food to the hacker.

Unlock the door with the key and open it. Go south. Open the box. Disconnect the coaxial cable. Reach into the pool and get the power line. Hack at the line with the axe until you cut it.
