Nancy Drew: Stay Tuned For Danger/Unused Audio
This is a sub-page of Nancy Drew: Stay Tuned For Danger.
A full 430 out of 1283 audio files in Nancy Drew: Stay Tuned for Danger go unused. This means 33.5% of the files, or 28.6% of the data.
A summary of the more interesting details revealed by this audio:
- Instead of Mattie giving you her keys, at one point you had to steal those keys to search through her things. This would've resulted in a confrontation on those actions.
- Owen W. Spayder would've had a marginally greater presence in the game than he did have.
- You would've gotten at least the talent entrance code by talking to Mattie.
- Nancy was at one point supposed to narrate her attempted actions.

Dear Bess, you'll never guess who I'm visiting in New York: Mattie Jensen, your favorite soap star from "Light of Our Love"! Of course I'll try to get her autograph for you, but this is a business trip. Mattie is renting Aunt Eloise's apartment in New York, and after hearing about my last case, Secrets Can Kill, Mattie called Aunt Eloise to invite me up here. According to Mattie, Rick Arlen is getting death threats, but he won't go to the police, so she wants me to do some investigation work. Can you imagine anyone not liking Rick Arlen, daytime's cutest hunk? I have a sneaking suspicion though, that there's more to this case than meets the eye. Call you later! Nancy. |

Dear Dad, I'm still in New York housesitting for Mattie while she's on vacation. Dwayne is now awaiting trial for his attempted murder, and has publicly apologized for his crimes. Lillian has moved out to California, and is directing her first film. But the best news is about Mattie and Rick! They finally decided to tie the knot. Well, as Serena and Rory. But, who knows? Perhaps it'll rub off on them. There's always hope! Love, Nancy. |

No, she hasn't discussed this with me, but... it wouldn't surprise me. I know Rick has been pressuring her to leave me and to sign on with a high-profile agency. Hh, it's saddening to hear this, but, I'm hopeful Mattie will remain loyal to me. |

Oh no, that won't be necessary. It wasn't very important. |

Oh thank you for that boost of confidence, Miss Drew. But if only I could believe that for sure. |

| Dwa52 |
To spite me, I believe. I think it embarrasses him that I know of his lowly beginnings. When he was just "Rick Aburtuski", ready to take on the worst acting jobs for next to nothing. |

| These three pieces of audio indicate either that Nancy was going to get into the lost & found via asking someone to get in there, or this is just flavor text for Nancy attempting this. (In the game, you enter the lost & found area of the prop room via tunnel.) | |||
