I don't know why you can't pick that lock.... unless you're talking
about a different lock than I am. The one I was referring to has a
horizontal gate on it at the top of the large staircase. In the real
world mansion there would have been a mechanist camera right above your
head. I know I picked this one because I was concerned about the amount
of time it was taking and I was worried that one of the patrolling
guards was going to see me. And there's also a dancing doll that should
come running up to you. I was never able to figure out what the hell
his deal was since he doesn't try to hurt you. He's just annoying.
Maybe someone else has an idea as to why you can't pick the lock because
I've done it several times.
