George - Henri's Apartment, Vera Security | Paris Broken Sword: TSC Guide

The door to Henri's apartment are unfortunately closed (on the right, bottom of the screen). Use the Intercom, but the woman who answers will not want to let you in. Call your boss (Rickenbacker). He will order you to find the painting. Leave the current location and go to Vera Security.

Meet a very nice stallholder

Talk to the man at the bottom of the screen (Stallholder). You will promise to fix the broken Neon Sign above the stall, so have a look at it.

Read the instructions above

First, remove the Loose Wire. When you talk to Bassam, he'll tell you you're like Aladdin from the tales. You're going to need that word to rearrange the letters on the sign. Here's how you do it: On the close-up, left click on a letter. Move the letter to a different socket and left click to confirm. The word you need is SEE D'ALADDIN (with a space in-between). If you're still confused, take a look below:

The sign as is it should be

A successful completion of this task will reward you with the "Brand is Everything" achievement. Talk to the boy. Enter the Vera Security office (on the left). First, you'll need to get rid of a Cockroach. There is a Table near the entrance.

Examine this table

Move the empty Cigarette Packs to uncover a Matchbox. Pick it up and right click on it in the inventory to take out the matches. Click on the cockroach and, in the close-up, use the empty matchbox on the Crumbs. Now you need a Bait - for that, go outside and talk to Bassam again. When you mention the cockroach, you'll receive a Rich Tea Biscuit. Use it on the empty matchbox and the bug will fall right into your trap.

Don't forget to pick the box up off the floor

Talk to the woman Ariette. She will deny everything and won't help you. Notice the book lying on the desk, which is Ariette's Black Book. You're going to need to distract her in order to examine it. Call the office. When she picks the phone up, tinker with the radio. Ariette will approach it in a minute, giving you the opportunity to quickly pull out a photo from the book. Examine it.

Use the photo on Ariette and talk to her again. When you're done, head back to the Gallery.
