Brain Out Level 57
๐ Walkthrough
Overview
The prompt "Again! Who would you save? Your mom or your girlfriend?" shows an oval thought bubble above the boy: inside the bubble, an old woman and a young girl are standing at the bottom of a pit, and the boy below is chewing blue bubblegum. This is a repeat of a classic "mom vs girlfriend" dilemma, but the boy clearly has no girlfriend in the scene. The joke is that the premise itself is false.

- Estimated moves: 1
Step-by-Step Solution
- Look at the two figures in the thought-bubble pit: an old woman (the mom) and a young girl. Below, the boy is blowing a blue bubblegum bubble.
- Notice that the "girlfriend" figure in the pit is not someone the boy actually has. The game is asking an impossible question.
- Drag the young girl figure in the pit off the screen, or simply tap the boy to make him spit out his bubblegum / reveal that there is no girlfriend.
- The game pops the congratulations message: "XD You don't have a girlfriend!" This confirms that the puzzle is a trick โ the premise does not apply.
The thought bubble shows an old woman and a young girl standing in a pit. The boy below is chewing bubblegum. The prompt asks who you would save, but the boy does not actually have a girlfriend.
Drag the young girl figure out of the thought bubble, or simply tap the boy to make him spit out his gum. The game then pops the message You don't have a girlfriend, confirming that the dilemma is a trick. The mother is the only real person in the scene.
Drag the young girl figure out of the thought bubble. She slides off easily. Once she is gone, only the old woman remains in the pit. The game then pops the message saying you do not have a girlfriend. You do not need to rescue the old woman; the level clears the moment the girlfriend figure is removed.
Strategy & Reasoning
The level is a joke about the boy being single. The prompt asks who you would save between mom and girlfriend, but the boy has no girlfriend, so the question is moot. The intended interaction is to remove the girlfriend figure from the pit (or to acknowledge that she does not exist), which makes the dilemma disappear. The blue bubblegum bubble on the boy is a visual clue that he is young and not in a relationship. You do not need to rescue either figure; you just need to recognize that the "girlfriend" option is fake.
Tips & Common Mistakes
- Do not try to rescue both figures by dragging them out of the pit. That is not the solution.
- Do not tap the mom. The mom is real and is not the punchline.
- Do not overthink the rescue mechanic. The level is a trick about the premise, not about which button to press.
