The game may glitch to where Miss Brent knitting downstairs on the patio alive,
but is also dead in bed at the exact same time. This happens because she must 
first complete the part of your escape plan that you have given her, which is 
to sew the two sheets together. For her to finish this you must give her: 
sheets (found in the upstairs closet) sewing needles (found in the Rogers' 
room) and finally fishing line (found behind the thorn bushes). To get past 
these thorns, find the fermented apples near the bee hives. Using the cheese 
cloth, place them in the juicer in the kitchen. You will need a piece of the 
submarine hidden through the "Rule the Waves" door before you can do this. 
Make sure that you explore the rooms beyond the safe very carefully or you 
will miss the sub. After you have the apple cider, take it to the thorn bush
and use it there. Grab the fishing line and give it to Miss Brent. Walk away
for a few minutes and return. The sheets are done and you can combine the 
four things you need: the tripod for the telescope, the sheets, the leather
goat harness and the fishing net to get your parachute.
