How to get the mop in Return to Monkey Island

Go to the International Mojo House in the Low Street area and collect the Sharp Knife and the Frog of Forgiveness from there.

Read the plaque under the statue on Low Street. After that, head to the Scumm bar and chat with the chef in the kitchen. Ask the chef about buying a mop. After that, the cook will refuse to lend you a mop and ask you to make it yourself. Now go through the door on the right side of the kitchen and collect the rope.

Interact with Wally at his shop on Low Street and ask him to create a map to get the wood needed to build a mop. Next, Wally will ask you about the type of wood. Now you need to get Wally a piece of wood from the chef’s mop handle. Before you leave Wally’s shop, take the Monocle from his desk.

Interact with a customer at the bar who is angrily waiting for their meal. Then return to the chef and talk to him to find out what is causing the delay in serving food to this customer. Now help the chef get the ingredients from the book kept in the governor’s mansion.

Go to the governor’s mansion and chat with Carla. After completing the dialogues, approach the bookshelf and ask if you can borrow a book called “Ingredients”.

Carla will then express her anger at Guybrush because he borrowed the book last time and never returned it. Next, select the Forgiveness Frog from inventory and give it to Carla as an apology, which she will reject at first. Later, offer her the frog again by combining it with the pen in inventory.

  • Write the following sentences on the frog to apologize perfectly:
    • Dear Carla,
    • I’m sorry I lost the book I borrowed.
    • I appreciate your dedication…
    • Select the location indicated on the sign under the statue on Low Street.
    • I promise to work better in the future.

Next, give the forgiveness frog to Carla again, and this time she will accept the apology. Now go to the bookshelf again and ask her again about taking the Ingredients book. Finally, she agrees, picks up the book and goes back to the chef at Scumm Bar.

Later, after handing the book to the chef, take the piece of wood from the mop handle with the knife while he prepares the food. After that, go to Wally’s shop and give him a piece of wood to get a map.

Travel to the Dark Forest using the map. Also, you can get there by simply following the path on the right side of the Governor’s Mansion. Enter the forest and take the right, left, left, and middle paths to reach the tree. Once you get there, use the knife to cut the mop handle out of the wood.

Use the map to find and visit the area called the Shipyard. Take a sponge and combine it with the mop handle to make a mop.
