I try my best to never explain my puzzles, even if nobody ever solves them, but for my latest moon 20 endeavors, I want to go through the thought process of every choice that had to be made.
PLEASE NOTE! That with these puzzles specifically, there were no ârightâ answers. There were different choices, that affected the outcome.
To solve this one, you had to know that it was pertaining to Tigertoe being pregnant. There are three clues to this:
-The song playing is a lullaby (if you look it up itâs actually part of a video game OST that plays when you enter a nursery)
-the backdrop looks like a kids drawings/arts and crafts project
-The title âthe newsâ implies some sort of announcement, in this case a pregnancy announcement.
Now, if you figured this out (which as a reminder, I didnât expect you to bc thereâs no wrong answers), you might have a better chance of choosing a card. The cards represent a timelineâthree cats finding out about Tigertoeâs pregnancy, in the order they would have found out.
First cardâIf this one had been chosen, the next part of the puzzle would have been from Clownâs POV. As the medic, he was the first to realize Tigertoeâs symptoms were because of pregnancy.
Second cardâThis was the one that was chosen, so you all know this card was your girl Tigertoe đ
Third cardâThis one would have been Trapezetangles POV; the last one, because Tigertoe would have been the one to tell him.
The movement of Goldmaskâs arm was a COMPLETE red herring sorry guys đ
SecondâThe choice to take the pills
To be honest, the answer to this one is pretty simpleâClown is a shifty guy. His refusal to tell Tigertoe WHAT was wrong and his insistence she only consult HIM on the matter should have aroused suspicion.
Also, the pink pills Tigertoe is given is paying homage to âDr. Williams Pink Pillsââa self proclaimed âcure allâ in the early 20th century that actually didnât do anything. Itâs implied that Clown has given Tigertoe something akin to sugar pills.
The choice was to take themâand of course, they donât treat her symptoms. The consequence? Tigertoe faints and has a nightmareâŚor more accurately, a vision, telling her sheâs pregnant.
If the choice had been to not take them, Tiger would have sought out Trapeze against Clowns advice. He would have given her a remedy he remembered from his old clan. Tiger would have drifted off to sleep, and had, this time, a gentle vision from Starclan that she was pregnant.
Finally, the operation game.
This oneâs simple enough tooâthe symbols at the end, underneath Goldmask, are actually letters that are flipped and meshed together. These letters spell âWake up Tigertoeâ, implying she is only dreaming, leading to the reveal where she wakes up and interprets the vision.
All this to say: I am insane and deranged in ways you can scarcely comprehend
