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.

Derive the code for the lock on screen#
Confirm the Day 2 bathroom#
Use the three letters in the bathroom as the clue set for the nearby briefcase.
Remove every X-marked digit#
Treat each X as an elimination mark, then read the digits that remain across the three letters.
Enter 281 on the bathroom briefcase#
Use 281 only after confirming the bathroom context.
Use 374 on the separate carriage lock#
During Day 1, the right-side carriage lock uses 374, a number found beneath the baby basket.
Caution
Do not swap the two valid codes#
281 belongs to the Day 2 bathroom briefcase. 374 belongs to the Day 1 carriage's right lock. A rejected code usually means the room context is wrong, not that the number changed.
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.
