NOTE: If the mug is on the table she will not care if she see you putting pills into the mug.

CONGRATULATIONS!! YOU HAVE BEATEN THIS GAME IN ~20 MINUTES

Alternatively you can click the book on the bottom as fast as possible to get ending 1

but I think ending 3 seems like the most responsible ending and can end as same time as ending 3 for Any% speedrun.

To get ending 2 you have to wait until “Fine, you wanna force my hand? Fine!” click on book and then click on the clock

The run my me here. there could be a lot of timesaves. possible but I am not that hardcore of speedrunner
