    Wow!  Now THIS is a town, but where's Tifa?  Looks like you've got some exploring to do.  Checking around the southern portion of Wall Market reveals that Tifa's been taken to Don Corneo's Mansion (very very end, the building looks like a temple) for an "interview") with the boss.  Why would Tifa want a job at the Honey Bee Inn?  Well, there's only one way to find out.  You'll need to get into Corneo's Mansion and it won't be easy because he has a strict policy of girl only.  What to do?  If Cloud dresses up as a woman, he might be able to sneak into Corneo's Mansion unnoticed.  But if Cloud is going to try to fool Don Corneo, he'll need a dress and wig the disguise his manly physique.

Note:

        There are several items Cloud can pick up to alter his appearance.  However, he only needs to collect a dress and wig to actually get into the Mansion.

Tip:

        If you want to full Wall Market experience, you'll need to collect all of the available items.

    Cloud's first stop is the Dress Shop.  This doesn't start out well, because it appears that the owner can't make any dresses because he's in a bit of a slump.  Now he spends his day drinking in a local bar.  If you can talk to him into returning to work, he may be willing to make Cloud a dress.  Go to the tavern (the store that has the sign "In" on the front), and speak to the owner of the Dress Shop.  He'll be happy to make the dress, but you must decide on the type of dress.  Here are your choices:

    1. Something that feels clean or soft

    2. Something shiny or something that shimmers

    Choose "soft" and "shimmers" to get the best dress, which is the Silk Dress.  Choosing "clean" and "shiny/shimmers' get you the Cotton Dress and choosing "soft" and "shiny" gets you the Satin Dress.  Now that you have the dress, it's time to find a wig.  The shop owner thinks you can get one from the gym.  Huh???

    It looks like Big Bro, the gym's owner, is into cross-dressing and must spend a lot of time at the Dress Shop.  He says he'll give you a wig, but first Cloud must defeat one of the muscle-heads on a "squat" contest.  To perform the squats, just tap the [ ] X O buttons in order.  Don't press the next button until the previous movement has been completed.  With a little practice, you can easily find the proper timing.  If you mess up during the contest, Cloud will scratch his head and you'll have to start over by pressing the [ ] button.  You'll get a Blonde Wig when you win the contest.  But there's no need to worry if you don't win:   You get a Dyed Wig for a tie and a plain Wig that's been stored in a slightly unsanitary spot should you happen to lose.

    Now it's decision time.  You have two options:  You can simply proceed to Corneo's Mansion, or you can spend some more time collecting items to make Cloud's disguise more convincing.  Why should you continue to collect items?   Cloud may look somewhat like a woman with his disguise on, but he's not the most attractive woman.  Could would look much more appealing to Corneo and his cronies if he had some items like Cologne, Underwear, Make-up, and a Tiara.

Note:

        If you want to collect the extra items, keep reading.  If not, return to the Dress Shop and Cloud will try on his new outfit.  Then you can skip ahead to Corneo's Mansion.

   First, Cloud needs some Cologne.  Remember the guy in the bar doing the "pee-pee dance"?  Talk to him and then talk to the lady who seems to be hogging the bathroom.  Looks like she needs some medicine, but not any medicine will do.  She needs a special medicine that can only be obtained with a pharmacy coupon.  You're in luck - it just so happens that the local restaurant is giving out coupons with the purchase of a meal.  Go to the restaurant and order any meal, but just make sure you have the money to pay for it.

    After you get the coupon, go to the local pharmacy and you'll be given a choice of the following medicines:  Disinfectant, Deodorant, or Digestive.  Select the Digestive and head back to the bar.  Hand over the Digestive to the lady in the bathroom and you'll receive the Sexy Cologne.  If you choose the Disinfectant, you'll receive Cologne, and if you choose the Deodorant, you'll receive the Flower Cologne.

    Now head to the Materia Shop and speak to the man behind the counter.  He needs a favor and if you're willing to spend the night at the Inn and make a small purchase from third vending machine, he'll compensate you for your time.   Head to the Inn, but make sure you have at least 210 Gil.  Pay the 10 Gil for a night's stay and Cloud will go to the vending machine in the middle of the night.  Inside the vending machine are three items for sale.  Purchase the most expensive item (at 200 Gil) and then return to the Materia Shop in the morning.  The owner appreciates the help and gives you a Diamond Tiara for your troubles.  You'll receive a Glass Tiara if you spend 50 Gil and a Ruby Tiara if you spend 100 Gil.  Now there's only one more item to Go!

    It's time to check out the Honey Bee Inn.  Just west of the Honey Bee Inn, there's a guy walking around in circles who just happens to have a Member's Card.  If you want to get inside, you'll need that card.  Fortunately, he turns over his card.  Now that you have the card, speak to the man at the entrance and he'll let you inside.

    Inside the Inn, you must choose a room for your "activities", but only the two rooms on the left are open.

Tip:

        You can spy on the two occupied rooms.  While looking through the keyhole, you can change your view by pressing left or right on the directional pad.  This enables you to keep you with all the action inside.

   When you're ready, enter the room of your choice.   Regardless of the room you select, you'll walk away with an undergarment of some sort.  (Bikini Briefs if you choose the Group Room; Lingerie if you choose the &$#% room).  Before leaving the club, visit the Honey Bees' dressing room and they'll be glad to apply some make-up to Cloud's face.

    That's it!  Cloud should have everything he needs to complete his disguise.  So return to the Dress Shop and try on everything.  It's now time to make a return visit to Don Corneo's Mansion.

    Upon entering the mansion, you're given a chance to search for Tifa.   To find her, enter the open door on the second level.  You'll find her alone at the bottom of the stairs.  Tifa came here to find out why the Don's goons were casing her bar and it patiently awaiting a chance to speak to the Don.  When Don Corneo's guard yells down the stairs, head back up into the Don's chambers.  It's in these chambers that Don decides who get a "fun-filled" evening and who gets thrown to the dogs.

    If you collected the Silk Dress, Blonde Wig, Sexy Cologne, Diamond Tiara, an undergarment, and make-up, Corneo will pick Cloud as his lucky guest.

Note:

        Other combinations of items monitored previously may cause the Don to choose either Aeris or Tifa.

   When Cloud is chosen, he goes straight to the Don's bedroom.  If he's not chosen, you'll have to deal with Corneo's thugs first.

    Cloud is then taken to a side room as a reward to Corneo's faithful few.  Run around as much as you like, but the guy guarding the door won't let you leave.  You'll need to speak to Scotch and reveal your true gender if you ever want to leave this place.  Of course, revealing this instigates a brawl that Cloud must win on his own.  Scotch is a big other goons, but both fights are really easy.   After you escape, either Tifa joins you in the hall or you'll have to retrieve Aeris from the basement before heading for Corneo's bedroom.  (This scenario depends upon you was chosen.)

    If Cloud gets chosen as Corneo's "Friend" for the night, you'll start in his bedroom and get to decide for yourself whether or not you play along with is misguided come-ons.  Eventually, Tifa and Aeris back into the room and together the team forces the Don to spill his guts.

    If seems Heidegger of Shinra hired the Don to investigate Barret and locate AVALANCHE's hideout.  Shinra planned on exterminating AVALANCHE after infiltrating the hideout by destroying the Sector 7 support.  This would cause the plate above to crush the entire sector, which would cause some more several trouble!   Before the team can leave, Don Corneo turns the tables and casts them out of his mansion by using a trap door.

Note:

        Make sure you check behind Corneo's bed to find a well-hidden Hyper.
