When Lynne enters the room, you’ll havevery little timebefore the gun goes off. Pause and unpause time carefully to avoid wasting precious seconds.Wait in the ball on the fanuntil it falls onto the table; from there,make your way down to the trapdoor in the floor and open it.Once that’s done,go to the toolbox in the upper left; you may have to wait for objects to move around before you’re able to reach it.Open the toolboxto move the bowling ball, which will cause a chain reaction; the tennis ball will use the open trapdoor as a ramp, hitting the cupid statue just before it fires,preventing Lynne’s third death.
When you return to the present,talk to Lynne. Ask her all the available questions, then close the conversation menu to proceed to the next chapter.
