You start at the yellow wall and brown door.

Go right, and read the note:

"Old man Brown
made a journey to town
for his ring was askew
so they fixed it with glue
soon to be a treasure passed down"

Go right again, you are now looking at the back of the closet.

Take the loose hanging coat hanger.
Open the jacket front and take the pocket watch  from inside.

Look down.

Take the old photograph.
Open the red toolbox and take the tin snips
Open the lower compartment of the toolbox and take the mini crowbar

Combine the hanger with the tin snips to cut the hanger to order.

Look at the old photograph and notice the wall clock is on 03:35.

Zoom in on the pocket watch.
Use the wire rod on the latch to open.
Set the clock to 03:35 as per the photograph. You set it by first pulling the side pin and then turning the 2 hands.
(notice the position of the short-and long hands)

Tale the golden key.

Go left (or right) to the wall with the note.
Click close to the top to look up.

Use the mini crowbar to remove the wooden beams covering the panel.
Use the golden key to open.

Flip the lever.
Go down (click on the white square)
Take the envelope from the top shelf.
Open the pocket on the jacket and take the personal organizer.

Open and read the letter:
"November 17, 1987
Dear grandson -
As I grow older in age I feel it is time to pass
on a gift of long ago. Just as my grandfather
and his grandfather did, I give you this
heirloom of the family. Keep it close!
-Gramps"

Look down:

Take the shoehorn

Open the personal organizer.
The password is the date on the letter. 11 17 87  (87 for 1987)
Take the key from inside.

Use the key to open the small brown box on the floor.

Take the diamond ring.

Climb back into the ceiling of the closet.
Flip the switch.
Climb back down.

Go around till you see the door.

Zoom in on the ring and remove the ruby.  You need to pull a few times...
Combine the wire rod with the ruby.

Zoom on on the door knob.
Use the ruby-wire above the door knob to escape!

Well done on a great escape.
