29. Now you can take the paintbrush.

30. Examine the paintbrush to see that it’s hardened. Take it to the sink and run some water on it. Now you can use it.

31. First dip the brush in blue paint, then in red — to make purple!

32. Paint the little white ball purple.

33. Go back to the shelves in the first room with all the paint supplies. Take the purple box off the shelf and put the purple ball in the round groove to open the box.

35. Go back to the first room and put the canvas on the easel. Also put the palette on the small table next to it.

37. Zoom out and close the blinds on the window so it’s dark. Then zoom out and see this on the ground:

43. Open it and take the lighter. Light the lighter and use it to melt the wax on the frame. Then remove the back and take out the awards.

44. Go back to the easel to see this:

45. If you listen to the easel, you get the bad ending, but can continue after to get the good one. You need to open the window and put the stake/rope through it in either case.

46. For the BAD ENDING, burn the awards and the flamingo painting, then climb out the window.

47. For the GOOD ENDING, look at the bottom right corner of the flamingo painting. You can see a faint message. Use the cutter on it and you’ll see the message clearly:

48. Now you can climb out the window and get the good ending.
