Faust, Episode Three...Part Two

Hi Everyone, I'm stuck in the 2nd part of Episode Three. I've gone back and started this Episode over 3 time. I've done everything in the walkthrough by Soren Anderson. I can't get the hole in the floor with the ladder in it to appear. Has anyone else had this problem? I don't know what else to do. Any idea's?

Hi Urabeth...Isn't there a revealing painting of two female figures at the bottom of the stairs? If so I think you need to use the thin pencil on that painting to open the door and see that there's now a hole in the floor.

Love, WItchen =O)

I got it! I went back and reset the clock, (for the 4th time.) I put the small hand a little past the five. When I went downstairs...whaaalaaa! there was the ladder in the hole in the floor. The other 3 times I set the clock I had the little hand right on the five. Now I'm off into the hole in the floor...instead of scratching the hole in my head.
