Once you make it to the clearing in the item slide state, for the most part the skip works the same way as it does on the CD version. However, on floppy it's easier if we use screen snap. So, if you used screen scroll to get the cannibals item slide, make sure to press Ctrl+R on your way to the clearing in order to switch to screen snap. Pull the nose, wait for the path to open, and look at the note. While Guybrush is reading the note, move to the right. Since we're using screen snap, the screen won't scroll. Hold Enter and position the cursor somewhere below the ear of the monkey head. It doesn't have to be right below it, just somewhere on the area below it. Once Guybrush has reached the place where you've positioned the cursor, he'll stop moving. At this point, don't move the cursor. Now press Esc so Guybrush stops reading the note, and press Enter. Alternatively, you can keep holding Enter and press both mouse buttons. Either way, Guybrush will enter the area with the little idol. Make sure you don't move the cursor before clicking on pressing Enter. If you click on a different spot, the screen will scroll, Herman will show up, interrupt Guybrush, and make it impossible for him to enter the area with the little idol. Furthermore, you'd lose the item slide state and would have to go back to the village to get it again. You can see this scenario in the monkey skip fail video. Another thing to take into account is that, if you read the note immediately after pulling the nose, Guybrush will start reading the note during the cutscene that shows the path opening. When that happens, you won't be able to move while Guybrush is reading the note. So, skip the cutscene, and read the note again. The reading the note too early video shows what happens in this case. If you use screen scroll instead of screen snap (for whatever reason), don't skip the cutscene of Guybrush reading the note. Instead, hold Enter, and wait. Once Guybrush is done reading, he'll enter the area with the little idol. If you skipped the cutscene, Herman would show up. The advantage of using screen snap is that Guybrush can enter the area with the little idol before the screen scrolls to the point where Herman shows up. Now, pick up the little idol. It's extremely important that you wait until Guybrush is done picking up the idol before clicking anywhere else, or you'll crash the game. Leave that area. Herman will show up and start a conversation with you, and you'll lose the item slide state. That's fine, you've already got the little idol, and the path will remain open for the rest of the game.
