Ben damages one of the walls

Ben decides to try to turn on the noise-activated lamp by pulling on something from the study to make a noise in the lab.

He finds a small decorative metal stand with some metal-handled brushes on it, which he believes will make a sufficiently loud noise if it falls over, and ties some green string to it, which he runs upstairs to the study. However, when he pulls on the string, it either breaks or becomes detached from the stand.

Ben then finds some stronger blue string to tie to the stand, and again runs this upstairs to the study, from where he aggressively tugs on it, causing some damage to a corner of a wall on the stairwell in the process. After getting very agitated, he is eventually able to move the stand enough to make a noise which turns the lamp on, before the stand then falls off the edge of the table and crashes onto the floor.

Ben completes the task in 25 minutes and 1 second, earning 3 points.
