The third game in the Monkey Island series, The Curse of Monkey Island was released in 1997, six years after the previous installment, LeChuck's Revenge. With two of the three fathers of the series, Ron Gilbert and Dave Grossman, no longer working for LucasArts, and the third, Tim Schafer, being busy with other projects, no one was really around to explain the infamous ambiguous ending of LeChuck's Revenge, so the company decided to go with a Cuckoo Nest interpretation of it.Curse starts off with Guybrush, adrift in a bumper car after escaping LeChuck's spell and his "Carnival of the Damned", arriving in the harbor of Plunder Island, just in time to save the island (and Elaine) from attack by LeChuck and his undead pirates. LeChuck is slain yet again, and Guybrush proposes to Elaine using a ring he found in the hold of LeChuck's ship. Unfortunately, said ring turns out to be cursed, and Elaine is turned into a golden statue. Guybrush's new mission is to lift the curse on Elaine and return her to normal (and defeat LeChuck again when the evil pirate once again comes back from the dead, this time as a fiery demon).This game marks LucasArts' final use of the SCUMM engine note Humongous Entertainment kept using it for nearly five years after. This game is also the first voiced entry of the series and marks the debut appearance of Murray, the franchise's Ensemble Dark Horse.After being hard to find for a long time, the game was finally made available digitally on GOG.com and Steam in 2018.

That Reminds Me of a Song
 The Curse of Monkey Island (Video Game) / int_1ab65185
comment
That Reminds Me of a Song: A Pirate I Was Meant To Be Which actually turns into a pseudo-puzzle, where you have to stop the pirates, who all rhyme on a dime, from singing by feeding them the line "We'll surely avoid scurvy if we all eat an orange." Though, really, anyone who skips straight to that line as soon as it pops up just doesn't get the premise of the game. The Spanish (or any other foreign language) version of the game doesn't have the pirate song segment. It skips directly to sea navigation, presumably because making a puzzle about rhyming work in each language would be a nightmare.

Breaking the Fourth Wall
 The Curse of Monkey Island (Video Game) / int_1e7487cd
comment
Breaking the Fourth Wall: In Part II, even though it's always daytime in Puerto Pollo, the clocktower above the Long John Silver Center for the Performing Arts is a real-time system clock that is built in for your computer, telling you at what time you played the game and keeping track of your current, local civil time. At each hour, the clock chimes in a bit of LeChuck's Theme followed by the chime of the hour number, and about 30 minutes after each hour, the same bit of LeChuck's theme plays, but without the chime of the hour number. Even interesting is that when Guybrush examines the clock tower, he will say what current time will be in the Caribbean Standard Time in hours, minutes and seconds, whether in morning, afternoon and night, acting like a speaking clock on the phone at the time of day service. Complete with a "Beep." Also, when Guybrush speaks with Palido Domingo and asks him how long he's been lying in Brimstone Beach trying to get a tan, Palido will tell him he's been there since seven months prior to the current month and date on your computer clock. If you asked him in August, for example, he'll say, "Since January." Ask him in January, however, and he'll not only say, "Since June," but he will also wish Guybrush a Happy New Year! Weird! Guybrush's disclaimer not to mix medicine and alcohol right as he does so to fake his own death. And after Guybrush passes out: Haggis describes the importance of using hand lotion to avoid chafing while repairing ships. Guybrush turns to face the camera:

Failed a Spot Check
 The Curse of Monkey Island (Video Game) / int_21e5b9c7
comment
Failed a Spot Check: In the introduction, Guybrush, Lost at Sea, mentions several things he could really do with right now, and exactly everything he mentions floats by a few feet away. Moments later, he looks up from writing in his diary to find he's floated into the center of an enormous battle. As is common with these types of games, your costars have conveniently poor observational skills as well. If you don't take all five on Madame Xima's death cards on the first go, you can just swipe the rest when she randomly turns for a second and not bother with a distraction. Griswold won't notice you pulling out and clearly reading from the Door Stopper of a book when drilling you on Goodsoup family history. Subverted when you appear to effortlessly swipe the mirror that's right next to him; he'll stop you when you try to leave, even if you deftly replaced it with a cutout of a portrait in a single motion.

Appease the Volcano God: Parodied. Sherman, the lactose-intolerant god of Mount Acidophilus, the volcano on Blood Island, is tended to by a tribe of vegetarian cannibals (the same ones from the first game). Naturally Guybrush has to mess with the sensitive volcano. How? With an offering of nacho cheese which causes a catastrophic eruption.

Only Sane Man: When Guybrush gets tarred and feathered, Kenny Falmouth of all people is the only person on Plunder Island who actually recognises Guybrush as being just a human who happens to look particularly silly right now. Everyone else (barring Palido Domingo, who simply doesn't take any notice of Guybrush in that state) mistakes him for El Pollo Diablo, and calls for him to be murdered.

Mythology Gag
 The Curse of Monkey Island (Video Game) / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: Standard for LucasArts at the time, many Easter Eggs and a number of shout-outs are references to Star Wars, made by their parent company Lucasfilm, as well as their previous games. Examining the fortress from the Field of Honor in Puerto Pollo will make Guybrush say "Funny. The damage doesn't look as bad from out here." When Guybrush tells the Lost Welshman, "I'm not afraid," he replies, "You will be... you will be." The dialogue is lifted from Luke and Yoda from The Empire Strikes Back. And in the second "you will be", he imitates Yoda's voice. In addition, the Lost Welshman himself strongly resembles Bobbin Threadbare, the lead character of Loom, who similarly wears a grey hooded cloak that hides his face. In Blondebeard's fried chicken restaurant, there's a skeletal patron (really dead, not undead) who looks like Manny Calavera wearing a button that says "Ask me about Grim Fandango"; itself a shout out to the first game, where Cobb from Loom had a button that said "Ask me about Loom". Guybrush is still "selling these fine leather jackets". The puzzle with the lights in the theatre eventually results in Max's head appearing on the stage. Exiting and entering the crypt an absurd amount of times in a row rewards you with an unsettling Easter Egg; a protagonist from The Dig being devoured by a spider. Mort has a book titled Zombies Ate My Neighbors. The rollercoaster puzzle at the end of the game is very similar to the Tunnel of Love puzzle in Sam & Max Hit the Road.

A Winner Is You: There isn't any real denouement to the plot after defeating LeChuck. As soon as Guybrush springs the final trap on him, the game instantly cuts away to a thirty second scene without any dialogue, that consists of Guybrush and Elaine heading off to their honeymoon, while their friends are waving goodbye.

Bag of Spilling

comment
Bag of Spilling: Guybrush begins the game with only one item in your inventory: a pair of helium-filled balloons. Presumably these are the same balloons acquired in the endgame of Monkey Island 2, but everything else from that game has been lost (including his beard, which is lampshaded). Midway through the second chapter as well: Guybrush gets swallowed by a snake, and has to collect a wide variety of items inside the snake's belly before finding one that'll help him escape... after which the snake vomits Guybrush into a quicksand pit, which sucks almost all of Guybrush's recently discovered loot right through his pants. Played straight between chapters where some of the items that no longer have a use are lost. Some other items with no function, bizarrely, remain in the inventory.

Bald of Evil: Captain Rottingham, who starts off with a full head of hair so long and immaculately curled it looks more like a 17th Century wig, gets his hair chopped off by Haggis after Guybrush plants some lice on the comb he's using. He was already a French Jerk, but after that he specifically seeks out Guybrush's ship and robs him, stealing the map to Blood Island. He's the Arc Villain for Part III. The Lost Welshman says that Blood Island smuggler King André is a man "as ruthless as he is bald".

Accent Adaptation: In the Italian dub of the game, Haggis (while still being referred to as Scottish) speaks in a noticeable Neapolitan accent, unique since everyone else either speaks normal Italian or uses foreign accents (Rottingham and Domingo). Furthermore, all instances of "Aye" have been translated with "Ayò!", a typical Sardinian exclamation.

Also, throughout the game there's some instances where Guybrush will attempt a distraction by yelling "Look! A three-headed monkey!", and a mechanical three-headed monkey makes an appearance in the game's last chapter. Guybrush even lampshades it with "I knew it'd turn up sooner or later!"

In addition, the Lost Welshman himself strongly resembles Bobbin Threadbare, the lead character of Loom, who similarly wears a grey hooded cloak that hides his face.

Pirate Song: Three pirates sing a swinging tune called "A Pirate I Was Meant to Be", which is about how they're sure they can help Guybrush because they're great pirates. Guybrush wants them to stop because the song is going on too long, but the pirates find rhymes for all his protests and continue singing, until he tricks them by mentioning an orange.

Noodle Incident
 The Curse of Monkey Island (Video Game) / int_3c0a4666
comment
Noodle Incident: What exactly happened between LeChuck's Revenge and Curse that left Guybrush floating in the middle of the ocean on a bumper car? Guybrush reveals he has a fear of porcelain (which is something of a running gag throughout the rest of the game) and never explains why other than that it's "a long story". Fans speculated that it was because he had a porcelain vase smashed over his head during the off-screen fight with Shinetop in the first game. Sadly, LucasArts shot down that theory. If you try to combine the dog hair with the scissors, Guybrush will mention he's avoided dog grooming due to an incident with his aunt's poodle. It's never further elaborated on. Making it a Poodle Incident? If you try to lick the ice bucket, Guybrush will say: "My tongue might stick. I'm not gonna fall for that one again."

Cut His Heart Out with a Spoon: Most of Murray's dialogue consists of elaborate threats he is in no way capable of carrying out, since he's just a skull who can barely even move without being carried around (although he does get pretty good at rolling and bouncing around and he still follows you from the prologue all the way to the second-to-last chapter). Some of the toy LeChuck's lines are also voluble, decidedly kid-unfriendly taunts.

But Thou Must!: Guybrush joins a poker game with a group of pirates who are obviously going to cheat, and no matter what 'you' pick, he'll say "Of course I trust you". When Minnie asks if you're attached, you get multiple ways to say "yes" - and a single "no" response, but if you choose it, Guybrush will still say "yes". He is asked early on by the Voodoo Lady if he wants to see pictures of some voodoo children. All of the selectable responses are of him being horrified and loathing it, but he will always say "Perhaps...later." Mr. Fossey lets Guybrush choose between getting tarred and feathered and walking the plank. Guybrush refuses to pick either option, so Mr. Fossey forces him to walk the plank. Of course, you need to get tarred and feathered if you want to proceed through the game. When Guybrush gets to choose a prize from Dinghy Dog's carnival game, he can only take the toy anchor. If you choose Murray, Guybrush refuses out of fear, and if you choose anything else, Dinghy Dog stops you by Moving the Goalposts.

The term "Orient" was already quite outdated and offensive in 1997 when the game was released, though obviously not in the 17th century when it takes place.

Conveniently Placed Sharp Thing: Parodied. In the area where Guybrush gets eaten by a snake, the ground is littered with various tools and weapons that would help Guybrush get out of the snake. Unfortunately, he can't reach them from inside the snake. Also a Continuity Nod to the scene in the first game where you're tied to the idol underwater and everything you'd need to cut the rope is just out of reach (as seen in an Easter Egg on Blood Island).

Guybrush asks Murray if he can call him Bob. It could be because it's just a funny name, but Bob was also LeChuck's first mate in Secret, a ghostly, skeletal pirate who likewise had a loose grip on his skull, missing the Wedding Finale after dropping it in the bay of lava under Monkey Island. Of course, it also references how a limbless Murray is stuck bobbing in the water.

Hello, [Insert Name Here]: When Guybrush pretends to be a Goodsoup family member, he can choose to call himself Hearty Beef and Potato, Vegetable, P. Hamilton "Split Pea with Ham", or Won-Ton Goodsoup. The name of his choice will then appear on his insurance policy, death certificate, and is mentioned by Griswold. Averted when Guybrush is playing poker with King André, who asks you to introduce yourself. You can choose from a list of fake names (including the same you chose when you were pretending to be a Goodsoup family member), but King André knew your real name all along.

The Power of Hate: According to the Voodoo Lady, the curse that turned Elaine into a gold statue was born out of LeChuck's hatred, specifically, hatred born out of anger and frustration with the opposite sex due Elaine's constant rejections of him (and in fact, the curse triggers exactly when Elaine gets angry at Guybrush, a member of the opposite sex).

Guide Dang It!: For the most part this trope only really applies to the Mega-Monkey Mode, which is designed to have much harder puzzles than normal difficulty, but even in the normal mode the need to mix medicine and alcohol to proceed in the game threw off some younger gamers, who (ideally) wouldn't drink alcohol and so wouldn't know that mixing medicine and alcohol in real-life can have dire results, with nothing else in the game hinting that you're supposed to do this, unless you pay close attention to the recipe book.

Tar and Feathers: Guybrush is tarred and feathered by monkey crew members of a pirate ship. He later uses this to pose as El Pollo Diablo, a giant chicken who has terrorized the area. As Guybrush points out, it's a good thing the pirates forgot to heat the tar first... which causes problems later, as there's no tar left when you need to repair the ship.

In Part II, even though it's always daytime in Puerto Pollo, the clocktower above the Long John Silver Center for the Performing Arts is a real-time system clock that is built in for your computer, telling you at what time you played the game and keeping track of your current, local civil time. At each hour, the clock chimes in a bit of LeChuck's Theme followed by the chime of the hour number, and about 30 minutes after each hour, the same bit of LeChuck's theme plays, but without the chime of the hour number. Even interesting is that when Guybrush examines the clock tower, he will say what current time will be in the Caribbean Standard Time in hours, minutes and seconds, whether in morning, afternoon and night, acting like a speaking clock on the phone at the time of day service. Complete with a "Beep."

Shout-Out to Shakespeare: A character decides to rewrite various Shakespeare plays to better suit the local pirates' tastes, mangling not only famous Shakespeare quotations but entire plotlines, resulting in lines such as "Wherefore art thou treasure, Romeo?", "Spot, ye blasted dog, get out of me bloomin' garbage! Out, damned spot!" and "Alas, poor Yorick, I knew him... and his two pals!", said while juggling three skulls (one of them being Murray, of course). If you try to use Murray the skull while he's in your inventory, Guybrush will say, "Alas, I can't use Murray with that."

Edward van Helgen mentions that he and his fellow barber pirates used to have a fourth member named Dominique, a reference to the Spy Speak gag from the first game ("Do you have a cousin named Sven?" "No, but I once had a barber named Dominique").

When Guybrush gets to choose a prize from Dinghy Dog's carnival game, he can only take the toy anchor. If you choose Murray, Guybrush refuses out of fear, and if you choose anything else, Dinghy Dog stops you by Moving the Goalposts.

Talk Like a Pirate
 The Curse of Monkey Island (Video Game) / int_7e5f2db2
comment
Talk Like a Pirate: Downplayed, mostly limited to recurring villain LeChuck and the various enemy pirates during Part III. When other characters do talk using typical pirate lingo, part of the joke is how it's juxtaposed with very non-piratey accents and delivery.

Lame Comeback: In addition to the usual default options you are supplied with in sword fights you can use when you don't yet know the proper comeback, due to the rhyming gimmick, every insult also has a unique lame comeback of its own. Typically, it's a total Non Sequitur that just happens to rhyme with the insult.

What Happened to the Mouse?
 The Curse of Monkey Island (Video Game) / int_863fa679
comment
What Happened to the Mouse?: Guybrush's crew. The barber pirates were still fixing the ship when LeChuck's minions showed up, and the site of the shipwreck wasn't far from the clearing where the skeleton pirates captured Guybrush and Elaine, so why didn't the crew come help? We know they weren't killed, because we see them at Guybrush and Elaine's wedding. Wally's fate. This trope may have been invoked intentionally, since Guybrush makes a point of saying that he needs to save Wally and all of the monkey slaves, but then the rollercoaster explodes. It's hard to say though, because other stuff was clearly cut due to Executive Meddling. Guess LucasArts didn't as feel guilty about killing him off this time around. It took over twenty five years in real time and three more games to find out that Wally actually survived.

What Were You Thinking?: The Voodoo Lady says this to Guybrush, after admitting that he forgot to hide Elaine, who has been transformed into a solid gold statue, and thus is quite at risk on an island full of pirates. Admittedly, Guybrush didn't know that Plunder Island was a pirate commune until the Voodoo Lady herself told him that, but leaving a five-foot gold statue unattended and in open view on a beach was kind of a dumb move.

Riddle for the Ages

comment
Riddle for the Ages: We never find out if El Pollo Diablo is real, or where the legend came from if it wasn't. In a series like this, one might expect it to be the result of a contrived and hilarious misunderstanding, but there's no indication one way or the other. In the CMI Strategy Guide, Bill Tiller revealed that El Pollo Diablo was actually real. An abandoned storyline involved a labyrinth underneath Plunder Island, filled with traps and clucks of chickens demanding vengeance on the chicken-eating world. Guybrush would have been captured and tortured there, eventually swearing off white meat for the rest of his life, after which he would have been trained in the sacred Way of Chicken, becoming an elite warrior of the Pollo Knights of the Sith.

Continuity Nod
 The Curse of Monkey Island (Video Game) / int_9dab0a6e
comment
Continuity Nod: Guybrush is still selling these fine leather jackets. When the ghost of Minnie Goodsoup (who has a thing for pirates) coyly asks Guybrush what he does for a living, he hastily answers "Flooring inspector". This is a nod to the first game, where the lookout on Mêlée Island tells Guybrush. "You wanna be a pirate? You look more like a flooring inspector!" Guybrush uses the "Look Behind You! A three-headed monkey!" trick several times. Edward van Helgen mentions that he and his fellow barber pirates used to have a fourth member named Dominique, a reference to the Spy Speak gag from the first game ("Do you have a cousin named Sven?" "No, but I once had a barber named Dominique"). If you try to interact with the spittoon on Blood Island, Guybrush responds that he doesn't need to carry spit around anymore ("I've grown past that stage."), referencing the need to collect Largo LaGrande's spit for a voodoo doll in the previous game. If you examine the cannonballs in part I or the cork in part IV, Guybrush will say "Nice cannonballs" or "Nice cork", just like in the previous game where he says "Nice (object)" to just about anything he sees. The ride in the final chapter has dioramas of Monkey Island and LeChuck's Dungeon. Guybrush once again says "Could you please stop that annoying swinging?" to the imprisoned Wally. Mêlée Island had doors that teleport you to different parts of the town. Similar doors can be found in Puerto Pollo. Guybrush can purchase a zombie pirate toy from King André, and it looks exactly like LeChuck's sprite from Monkey Island 2. The tiki lights outside the hotel are the same as the ones seen in the Booty Boutique. "Hey, a stump!" Examining the crack in the Goodsoup crypt causes Guybrush to pop up from the inaccessible stump of The Secret of Monkey Island in Mêlée Island (the one that "leads to a series of catacombs" with the often misunderstood joke Insert Disk #absurd_number). The original (now crude by 1997) EGA graphics and SMI-music are used and Guybrush mentions that he feels like he's been here before, maybe in a dream. He's then scared off by "a terrifying horde of stunningly-rendered rabid jaguars". Both are references to the first game's infamous stump joke. On a similar note, click on the water below the Blood Island docks enough times and Guybrush will wade in — to what looks an awful lot like the Mêlée Island docks, complete with what looks like the first game's Guybrush, green and floating. Guess he couldn't hold his breath for longer than ten minutes. The recipe book from the hotel has recipes for the drinks from the previous game that Guybrush uses to win the distance spitting competition — a mix of Yellow Beard's Baby and a Blue Whale, here called a Phlegm and Tonic — as well as the Bloody Stump, Rum Rogers' Rum Surprise (surprise — it's all rum), and Blondebeard's biscuit recipe. LeChuck tells a story about a circus performer who died after getting shot out of a cannon without a helmet. This could be the reason why the Fettucini Brothers insisted on having Guybrush wear a helmet in the first game... or possibly the guy they mentioned having hired before him, also mentioned in MI2. Guybrush asks Murray if he can call him Bob. It could be because it's just a funny name, but Bob was also LeChuck's first mate in Secret, a ghostly, skeletal pirate who likewise had a loose grip on his skull, missing the Wedding Finale after dropping it in the bay of lava under Monkey Island. Of course, it also references how a limbless Murray is stuck bobbing in the water.

Un-Paused: Elaine is gearing up to punch Guybrush right before she turns into a statue. She resumes the punch when unfrozen on Blood Island, before staring in confusion at her surroundings.

comment
The Gunslinger: Elaine blasts LeChuck's sword out of his hands from a good few hundred yards away. With what appears to be a blunderbuss (notoriously inaccurate, intended for short range), to boot. Likewise, recruiting Edward Van Helgen involves challenging him to a duel, with one of the options being pistols at ten paces. He's unbeatable, easily shooting the gun out of Guybrush's hands. Even timid little Wally is very quick on the draw, though he never fires.

comment
The banjo duel is a family-friendly Homage to Deliverance in which Edward Van Helgen's banjo skills live up to his namesake, Van Halen guitarist Eddie Van Halen. Later, when Van Helgen claims you shot his banjo (which you did), Guybrush proclaims he can't be sure of that, the shot may have come from "the grassy knoll", referencing the JFK assassination conspiracy (and the movie). Oh, and the building in the background is a book depository.

Stripped to the Bone: In a puzzle, you have to strip a nigh-inedible old greasy chicken carcass (using the maggots found in the biscuits) to recover the Beach Club membership card. As seen in a cutscene, this also happens to those pirates dunked into the lava on the rollercoaster at the Carnival of the Damned.

Mood Whiplash: The Puerto Pollo chapter of the game and subsequent ship chapter are very upbeat and humorous. The Blood Island chapter which follows, however, is noticeably darker and more morbid in tone, though it still manages to stay funny with a healthy dose of Black Comedy. Even the cartoony graphics can't disguise the Mood Whiplash.

Most importantly, there's "Haggis" McMutton. While "Haggis" is technically a nickname, his real name is "Heart Liver and Kidneys Boiled in the Stomach of the Animal".

Wally's fate. This trope may have been invoked intentionally, since Guybrush makes a point of saying that he needs to save Wally and all of the monkey slaves, but then the rollercoaster explodes. It's hard to say though, because other stuff was clearly cut due to Executive Meddling. Guess LucasArts didn't as feel guilty about killing him off this time around. It took over twenty five years in real time and three more games to find out that Wally actually survived.

Hypocritical Humor: In Part V, LeChuck tells Guybrush about how he helped Young Lindy start an advertising firm and become rich, then played a nasty trick on Lindy that rendered him dirt poor, forcing him to get a job at a circus, just like Guybrush did in the first game. (Although, in Guybrush's defense, he at least had a pot to use as a makeshift helmet; whereas Lindy's lack of a helmet apparently caused his death.)

Turns out both of them are right, in a manner of speaking. He does indeed die... in the sense that he fakes his death up to five times to get into the Goodsoup Family Crypt.

Shout-Out
 The Curse of Monkey Island (Video Game) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: The title of Part 4, "The Bartender, the Thieves, His Aunt, and Her Lover", is a spoof on the film title, The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover. Also, the title of Part 5, "Kiss of the Spider Monkey", is a spoof on the title of Manuel Puig's 1973 novel, Kiss of the Spider Woman. Mr. Fossey, who hears voices in his head and interacts with the monkeys at Danjer Cove, is named after American zoologist Dian Fossey, who is known for saving the mountain gorillas from extinction and from poachers in Rwanda, and who met her sudden, untimely demise on December 26, 1985. Most of her life is described in her 1983 bestselling book, Gorillas in the Mist, most of which was made into a motion picture adaptation 5 years later, with Sigourney Weaver as Dian Fossey. There's a special scene after the credits, in which they spoof the classic Urban Legend about Walt Disney being kept frozen and buried under his theme park, as LeChuck actually is buried frozen under his theme park, though a father tells the story to his son as a real father would tell Disney's story in real life. When Guybrush uses his ventriloquism skills with Captain LeChimp he does a Captain Kirk/William Shatner impersonation, hams, random speech rhythm etc. LeChimp's (a gorilla) golden and purple attire deliberately resembles a Starfleet uniform. Guybrush introduces himself to King André in the surname-firstname-surname style of James Bond with a Sean Connery-like accent. A later conversation choice references a famous line from Goldfinger, with Guybrush asking, "Do you expect me to talk?" and André replying "No, Mr. Threepwood, I expect you to buy." The banjo duel is a family-friendly Homage to Deliverance in which Edward Van Helgen's banjo skills live up to his namesake, Van Halen guitarist Eddie Van Halen. Later, when Van Helgen claims you shot his banjo (which you did), Guybrush proclaims he can't be sure of that, the shot may have come from "the grassy knoll", referencing the JFK assassination conspiracy (and the movie). Oh, and the building in the background is a book depository. When Guybrush drifts between Elaine's fort and LeChuck's ship during the intro, the visual is an homage to a similar event in Pirates of the Caribbean (the ride, not the movie). The Blood Island cemetery's theme music sounds suspiciously similar to "Ding Dong, the Witch is Dead." When LeChuck tells Guybrush to guess what the Secret of Monkey Island is, options include: In LeChuck's personal treasure stash is a teddy bear run through with a sword. As confirmed here, this was a nod to the teddy bear logo of the company Accursed Toys, created by Jennifer Diane Reitz.

Gosh Dang It to Heck!: Played with in this game, making it the only game to get an "Everyone" rating, even though the word "hell" as a place is mentioned a few times (it does say, either in the instruction manual or on the back of the box cover art, that LeChuck's Beard of Evil is made of "pure demonic heckfire").

Developer's Foresight
 The Curse of Monkey Island (Video Game) / int_d24ed873
comment
Developer's Foresight: If you talk to Slappy Cromwell before his performance, he will explain his connection to Blood Island and give you the name of his agent. If you do not talk to him before the performance, he will leave a note on the door with the information you need. The hair comb in the Barbery Coast barber shop cannot be picked up no matter what, because Haggis stops Guybrush from picking it up. However, the game has unique lines of dialogue from Van Helgen to stop Guybrush from taking the comb if Haggis has left the barber shop, and unique lines of dialogue from Cutthroat Bill if both Haggis and Van Helgen have left. Even if the player triggers events that cause Haggis and Van Helgen to leave the barber shop and pushes the jawbreaker down Cutthroat Bill's throat and then tries to take the comb, Cutthroat Bill will motion angrily towards Guybrush and Guybrush will say something along the lines of "I think he doesn't want me to take the comb." In a more minor case, if you happened to try auditioning for the barbershop quartet before speaking to Slappy, he'll comment on it if you then ask to be in his play. Apparently the sound carries well across the town square. There are several moments where a certain item could logically be the solution to a puzzle, but isn't because the plot says so. In those moments, Guybrush usually has a convenient explanation for why that particular solution won't work. One example: Another minor case is the single ipecac flower, which you can show to Kenny, Slappy Cromwell, the hideous pirate/spokesmodel, the Cabana Boy, Murray and all three of the barber pirates. Each has a different reaction but refuses to take it for one reason or another.

What the Hell, Hero?: In Chapter 3, similar to the Swordmaster from the first game, Captain Rottingham has his own set of insults which you'll have to think of the appropriate response to. If Guybrush is unsuccessful in fighting Rottingham, he can still fight other pirates for varying reasons (mostly for practice). It's possible for Guybrush to use Rottingham's insults against them, which they can't answer. They do however, call you out on it.

Happens in the intro, when LeChuck raises his sword to kill Guybrush and Guybrush's future-wife Elaine shoots the sword out of LeChuck's hand. Bonus points for A) firing from the fort, which was a good fifty meters away, B) using a musket (though not really an option) which are notorious for their poor accuracy at range. And C) blowing out the smoke from the barrel.

Dreadful Musician: When Guybrush auditions for the barbershop quartet, he sings so badly that it apparently causes Edward to suffer a stroke. His choice of songs doesn't help: To make things funnier, if Guybrush asks Slappy Cromwell at the theater if he can join in, he'll reply with an emphatic no because he heard Guybrush's terrible singing from the barbershop.

Unexplained Recovery: Discussed and zigzagged: In Stan's defense, he requests legal proof that Guybrush actually died before he acquiesces. Which is reasonable, given that Stan is living proof that you can survive being interred in a coffin for upwards of a year. Which further begs the question of how Stan is still alive after being Buried Alive for all this time. Try not to overthink it.invoked Comes up again in the sequel, where Stan is out of the insurance business, apparently because the rest of his clients killed themselves and became undead just to cash in on their policy.

Exact Words: The hangover cure must contain "the hair of the dog that bit you". In this case they mean actual hair from a not necessarily actual dog. And it must bite you, even if you're not the one intending to take the cure. Kenny Falmouth, the kid - ahem - the young enterpreneur who owns the lemonade stand, has a bottomless mug policy. Which means, of course, that the mug does not have a bottom and cannot hold any liquid, so you're paying him for nothing.

Snap Back: The game essentially ignores the status of Guybrush's and Elaine's relationship from the previous game — where it was established that their romance had ended on bad terms, and Elaine could barely even stand to speak to him — and resets things to how they were at the end of the first game, with the two being very much in love from the word go this time around. (Of course, Elaine isn't exactly lying when she says that Guybrush is the only man she's ever loved.)

Together in Death

comment
Together in Death: One of the game's puzzles involves reuniting two dead lovers (a ghost and a skeleton, respectively). When the heartbroken ghost discovers that her lover had never intended to abandon her, their spirits are shown reuniting and then vanishing happily together.

There are several moments where a certain item could logically be the solution to a puzzle, but isn't because the plot says so. In those moments, Guybrush usually has a convenient explanation for why that particular solution won't work. One example:

Ten Paces and Turn: To get a pirate to join your crew you have to engage him in a pistol duel, although only Guybrush moves the ten paces. He'll win every time, so you have to challenge him to a banjo contest instead.

Video Game Cruelty Potential
 The Curse of Monkey Island (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4
comment
Video Game Cruelty Potential: Most of the Comedic Sociopathy is optional this time around: The paper voodoo dolls in the Voodoo Lady's house actually work... on Mort the gravedigger, a random innocent you haven't even met yet. Guybrush can stab them with any sharp object he has in his inventory purely For the Evulz. When Cutthroat Bill starts choking on his jawbreaker after Guybrush slaps him on the back ("Hey there, pal, how's it going?"), Guybrush must slap him again to make him spit it out. There's nothing stopping you from letting him choke for a few minutes, even after his face becomes purple, going out and wandering the island and doing literally every other puzzle before finally coming to Bill's 'rescue'.

Buried Alive
 The Curse of Monkey Island (Video Game) / int_f8f71b5f
comment
In Stan's defense, he requests legal proof that Guybrush actually died before he acquiesces. Which is reasonable, given that Stan is living proof that you can survive being interred in a coffin for upwards of a year. Which further begs the question of how Stan is still alive after being Buried Alive for all this time. Try not to overthink it.invoked Comes up again in the sequel, where Stan is out of the insurance business, apparently because the rest of his clients killed themselves and became undead just to cash in on their policy.

Faking the Dead: Guybrush puts himself into a death-like stupor with a combination of alcohol and a homemade hangover cure. Twice. At least. Insurance Fraud ensues.

Running Gag: The recipe book has its own mini running gag. Every recipe, barring the hangover cure, contains cilantro and several contain vermouth. This includes Rum Rogers' Rum Surprise, which otherwise consists entirely of rum.

Rhymes on a Dime
 The Curse of Monkey Island (Video Game) / int_fb17af62
comment
Which actually turns into a pseudo-puzzle, where you have to stop the pirates, who all rhyme on a dime, from singing by feeding them the line "We'll surely avoid scurvy if we all eat an orange." Though, really, anyone who skips straight to that line as soon as it pops up just doesn't get the premise of the game.

In Blondebeard's fried chicken restaurant, there's a skeletal patron (really dead, not undead) who looks like Manny Calavera wearing a button that says "Ask me about Grim Fandango"; itself a shout out to the first game, where Cobb from Loom had a button that said "Ask me about Loom".

The recipe book from the hotel has recipes for the drinks from the previous game that Guybrush uses to win the distance spitting competition — a mix of Yellow Beard's Baby and a Blue Whale, here called a Phlegm and Tonic — as well as the Bloody Stump, Rum Rogers' Rum Surprise (surprise — it's all rum), and Blondebeard's biscuit recipe.
