==Ways to Lose the Game==
All Game Overs have the same "go to jail" ending.
*Use the door 3 times
*Talk to the door 3 times
*Use the coffee with the case file
*Use Dragon-Man takeout with the case file
*Miss with the inked UNSOLVED stamp on the case file

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===

*[[Wikipedia: film noir|Noir atmosphere]] is a film technique typical of [[wikipedia: crime dramas|crime dramas]]

===Remarks===
*When Pom Pom unsticks the take-out food, Japanese letters flash briefly, despite the fact that the food and kung-fu martial arts are Chinese.
**The characters are [[wikipedia:katakana|katakana]], and spell "Kikku", or basically "Kick!"
*After collecting the photographic evidence, when the camera is used on an item in the room Dangeresque says he won't take another picture because he's "only gots one instant shot left," but when the camera is used on the window he says he's "outta film."
*Strong Bad does not look as short next to The Chief as he does next to the people in the "Behind The Bad" shorts.
*The only time you need to manually move Strong Bad is if he's on the opposite of the desk.
*You can also use the numpad to move, even diagonally, much like the classic Sierra games.

===Fixed Goofs===
*The Videlectrix main page initially linked to [[HR:roomisode1.html|roomisode1.html]] upon release. This was fixed within a few minutes.

===Glitches===
*The safe-combination note is semi-transparent and in front of Dangeresque, so when walking over the safe-combination note, its color changes to whatever color is behind it.
*While using the numpad to move, sometimes moving diagonally will make Strong Bad walk backwards.
*After spinning the chair the first time and uncovering the business card, the card appears briefly a second time as Strong Bad is hopping off the chair.  This does not happen in subsequent chair spins.
*If you use the takeout package with the blinds, but Strong Bad is not near the window at the time, Strong Bad will reach into the air in his current location, and the takeout will magically appear on the windowsill.  If you do the same with other inventory items or open/close the blinds when you are not near the window, Strong Bad will walk over to the window before this animation occurs.
*If you keep repeatedly clicking to use the un-solved stamp on the case file it will cause the animation to glitch and reset and can even cause the file to become marked solved with the stamp mark in the center of the page
*You can walk Dangeresque into the desk if you walk up into it near the bottom-left corner.

===Fixed Glitches===
*Looking at the rug when the glowing ink is visible would previously earn points each time attempted.
**Looking at or using the take-out before having it dislodged could also be repeated for additional points.
*Placing the whoozit last would prevent the player from finishing the game.
*If you inked the stamp, then pounded the desk again, another stamp would appear in the drawer.
*Placing the inked rubber stamp in the window and then closing the desk drawer used to make the stamp disappear. Reopening the drawer then made it reappear. Attempting to retrieve the stamp replayed the stamp-getting sequence. (The stamp did not reappear on the window sill until re-inked.) This caused two stamps (one inked, one dry) in the inventory at once. These actions also earned points each time they were completed, thus one was able to achieve a score over 170. However, once placed and disappeared, the blinds could not be closed again and Strong Bad was also unable to put anything new on the window sill.
*Clicking on the switch while below the chair formerly caused the game to hang.

===Inside References===
*[[Puking|Upchuck]] is called "whoozit", which is similar to how crap is called "[[whatsit]]".
*One of the "Game Over" screens in the game says "[[Seriously]] though".
*When Strong Bad gets off the chair the first time, he says "feelin' woozy", like Strong Sad did in [[caffeine]].
*If Strong Bad stamps the casefile as UN-SOLVED, he remarks "This does not look good for Dangeresque", which is similar to Homestar's line in [[50 emails]]
*Talking to certain objects will have Dangeresque ask the object "Do you know the times?", as [[Homestar Runner]] asked of [[Made-Up Strong Bad Animals#Monstrosity|the Monstrosity]] in [[animal]].
*When Dangeresque talks to the Chinese food container, he references a line from [[Trogdor]]'s theme song.
**Also, when he refers to the figure on the box as a "Dragon Man", it further references the song.
*Strong Bad asking whether something makes his head look husky is a reference to [[modeling]].
*Coach Z previously said "Stairmaster" as an attempt at Homestar's name in [[A Jorb Well Done]].
*Strong Bad telling the switch that he doesn't rave is a reference to the Cheat's raving in [[techno]].
*Strong Bad mentions that there is a camera [[all up on|all up in]] the safe.
*Strong Bad mentions that his [[parents|grandma]] used to air her whoozit out.

===Real-World References===
*The background art, particularly the clouds at the end of the game, are very reminiscent of [[Wikipedia:Day of the Tentacle|Day of the Tentacle]] and various adventure games by [[Wikipedia:Sierra Entertainment|Sierra Entertainment]].
*When using the phone, Strong Bad says "We're sending help immediately, Mrs. Fletcher!", a reference to the famous [[Wikipedia:I've fallen and I can't get up!|LifeCall commercial]].
*At the start, the Dangeresque logo has sparkles similar to the Lucasarts logo in [[Wikipedia:The Secret Of Monkey Island|The Secret Of Monkey Island]] by Lucasarts and [[Wikipedia:Leisure Suit Larry Goes Looking for Love (in Several Wrong Places)|Leisure Suit Larry 2]] by Sierra.
*The scene with Dangeresque and Renaldo bursting into the room is similar to the intro sequence from [[Wikipedia:Sam & Max Hit The Road|Sam & Max Hit The Road]].
*Strong Bad going to jail is a reference to Game Over sequences in Sierra adventure games, this was previously parodied in the [[Wikipedia:Monkey Island Series|Monkey Island]] series.
**The Game Over screen also has some resemblance to the game over screen in [[Wikipedia:Donkey Kong Country 2|Donkey Kong Country 2]].
*A [[Wikipedia: Stairmaster|Stairmaster]] is a piece of exercise equipment.
*Taking a "proverbial bite out of proverbial crime" is a reference to [[Wikipedia: Scruff McGruff|McGruff the Crime Dog]].
*The detective that can't leave his own office is the initial driver of the community-driven webcomic ''Problem Sleuth''.
