GameSpew and the relevant IGN Day 1 and Day 2 routes agree on Bathroom 281, Carriage 374, and their different clue contexts.

Before you set out

Prerequisites#

  • Identify whether the lock is in the Day 2 bathroom or the Day 1 carriage.
  • For 281, inspect the three-letter clue and remove the X-marked digits.
  • For 374, use the number found beneath the baby basket on the carriage route.

Desk answer

Day 2 bathroom briefcase answer#

Remove the X-marked digits from the three letters, read the remaining digits in order, and enter the result on the bathroom briefcase.

281

Route 03

Derive the code for the lock on screen#

  1. Confirm the Day 2 bathroom#

    Use the three letters in the bathroom as the clue set for the nearby briefcase.

  2. Remove every X-marked digit#

    Treat each X as an elimination mark, then read the digits that remain across the three letters.

  3. Enter 281 on the bathroom briefcase#

    Use 281 only after confirming the bathroom context.

  4. Use 374 on the separate carriage lock#

    During Day 1, the right-side carriage lock uses 374, a number found beneath the baby basket.

Fault ledger

If a valid code is rejected#

281 does not open the current lock
Check that the scene is the Day 2 bathroom and that you are using the briefcase tied to the three-letter clue.
374 does not open the bathroom briefcase
Keep 374 for the Day 1 carriage's right lock and enter 281 in the bathroom.
