(NOTE:- At this point you have to make an important decision as the

door before you, to rescue the Princess and return her to old misery
guts, OR opening a safe that you have yet to locate. There are no
points to be gained by rescuing the Princess, but you NEED to open the
safe and then vote for maximum points, so forget the Princess. If you
want to go ahead and rescue the old girl, then follow the
'mini-solution' at the end of the main solution).
