You can order a replacement contact lens at the Toad Bros. Bazaar shop, but it won\u2019t be delivered for a while. If you try to head west out of Rogueport Square at any point during the Prologue or Chapter 1 of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, then you\u2019ll find Zess T. looking for her contact lens. She tells you not to move, but of course, you have to move if you want to continue playing the game. And inevitably, your next step will squish her contact lens. To punish you, she then insists on blocking the path to Rogueport West until you buy her a new one. Where to buy a new Contact Lens for Zess T. in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door Go into the Toad Bros. Bazaar, which is the shop on Rogueport Square very close to Zess T.\u2019s house. Speak to the shopkeeper, and he will tell you that he\u2019s all sold out of Contact Lenses right now but that he can order one, especially for you. So, agree to order a Contact Lens and the shopkeeper will tell you to check back soon, but it\u2019s really not that soon. I checked back several times during the next few hours of play, and the Contact Lens still hadn\u2019t arrived. What the shopkeeper doesn\u2019t tell you is that he\u2019ll send you an email as soon as the Contact Lens is delivered, so you don\u2019t actually need to keep checking back at all. When does the Contact Lens get delivered to the Toad Bros. Bazaar shop? The Contact Lens gets delivered to the Toad Bros. Bazaar shop in Rogueport towards the end of Chapter 1. I got an email from Toad Bros. after I\u2019d defeated Hooktail, retrieved the Crystal Star, returned it to the Thousand-Year Door, and reported back to Professor Frankly. So, before you can get the Contact Lens, you have to travel all the way to Petal Meadows, Petalburg, the Shhwonk Fortress, and Hooktail Castle, then back to Rogueport, which takes a couple of hours. Once you get the email notifying you that the Contact Lens is now in stock, go to the Toad Bros. Bazaar and buy it for 10 Gold Coins. Next, go straight to Zess T. and give it to her. She\u2019ll be so happy that she\u2019ll go back to her house, clearing the way for you to go and explore Rogueport West. You've still got a long way to go!","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Paper_Mario_TTYD_Contact_Lens.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1241419"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2198"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1241419"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1241419\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1241722,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1241419\/revisions\/1241722"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1241423"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1241419"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1241419"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1241419"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1241419"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1241419"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1241419"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1241419"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
