Black Mirror III Hints
How can I get a key from this painting?
1 of 8: Look for a hidden compartment of some sort.
2 of 8: Click on the hotspot called "part of the frame," then click on the cavity that's revealed.
3 of 8: You'll find seven small holes, just like on the base of the horse sculpture.
4 of 8: Maybe this is where you need to use your toothpicks.
5 of 8: Use the toothpicks on the holes to stick one in each hole as far as it'll go.
6 of 8: The different depths that the toothpicks go make up the "key." You'll need to find a way to carry it over to the horse sculpture.
7 of 8: Check your inventory to see that the piece of the picture frame you pulled out has little holes in it, too.
8 of 8: Click the frame piece on the toothpick-filled holes to get Darren to turn it into a usable key.
