I haven't been able to enter the curtain in the bank (anyone else know how?)
but to get into the bucket - BOARD BUCKET.
When you get to the top - DISEMBARK.

Does anyone know how to use the curtain, or what command you use to eat the
"EAT ME" cake?  I try - but I can't figure out the adjective to describe it,  
and since I'm holding the other two cakes it won't let me get away with it.
