That reminds me, in Zak McKracken you had to microwave a raw egg in the 
plane to make the flight attendant clean the microwave so you could 
flood the bathroom so you could steal the SCUBA gear so you could jump 
out of the plane and discover, I think it was Atlantis.

Unlike other LucarArts games in this one you could easily die if you 
jumped out at a place where there wasn't some underwater location.

I always have wondered if that thing with the egg would even work, but I 
have never cared to really find it out. Mostly because it would have 
been me that would have to do the cleaning.
