the cutting room mirror

Borrowed Time (Mac OS Classic)

Meet Sam Harlow. When some bad eggs poach his ex-wife, this hard-boiled P.I. scrambles to crack the case.

What they don't know is: he eats bad eggs for breakfast.

Hidden Credit#

The invisible, automatically launched game application is named Troy P. Worrell, after the programmer.

Hidden Ending#

Enter the command burger at any time to get beheaded with an axe.

This Easter egg is part of a long-running inside joke on the part of Interplay co-founder Rebecca "Burger" Heineman. Variations on the same scenario are concealed in many Interplay games.
