The first 8 minutes of gameplay

[_L_]

I've found that room where you have to walk through the wall with the two syplhs, but the Bee Smoker is not apparent

Oh, right, that room. It isn't important at the moment. You need the flippers to get the Big Key anyway. Your goal at this point is to cross the water in the previous room.

Also I couldn't find the damn scrubs. I suck.

From the start: south, west, west, south, west, and so on.
