Brain Puzzle 3 Level 89
📝 Walkthrough
Overview
Level 89 is a street-side relationship repair puzzle. The yellow banner at the top reads "Let everything return to normal." The scene shows a European-style street with three characters: a woman in a red dress carrying a brown designer bag winks and blows a kiss; a man in a blue plaid shirt has his pants sagging down showing green patterned underwear and a "212-XXX-XXXX" phone number tattoo on his arm; and his girlfriend in a blue tank top stands behind him with white-rimmed eyes, red anger marks on her forehead, a flame blazing on top of her head, and a red cloth crumpled in her hand. A progress bar at the top tracks the repair, with a sad emoji on the left and a happy emoji on the right. The completed state shows all three calm and normal: the man's pants are up, he is holding hands with his smiling girlfriend, and the red-dress woman stands neutrally beside them.

Step-by-Step Solution
- Read the objective. The banner says "Let everything return to normal." The current state is abnormal in three visible ways: the man's pants are sagging, the girlfriend's face is streaked with white rage-makeup and her head is on fire, and the red-dress woman is winking and blowing heart-shaped kisses at the man. The progress bar at the top is empty.
- Interact with the red-dress woman. In the first intermediate frame, a small circular change appears near the red-dress woman's wrist/waist area — an accessory (a bracelet or ring) is revealed or removed. Tap her handbag or wrist to cancel her flirtatious presentation. The progress bar begins filling green.
- Pull up the man's sagging pants. In the second intermediate frame, the man's gray sweatpants have been pulled up to his waist, and the green patterned waistband is no longer visible. Tap his pants to hitch them up. The bottom caption updates to "That was my West Coast style," confirming the sagging-pants look has been corrected.
- Let the man turn to his girlfriend. As the pants are fixed, the man turns his head away from the red-dress woman and reaches back to hold his girlfriend's hand. His mouth no longer blows heart-shaped kisses. The girlfriend's white-rimmed eyes and red anger marks fade; her face returns to normal. The flame on her head shrinks.
- Watch the completion. In the final frame, the flame is gone entirely. The man stands naturally holding his girlfriend's hand, both smiling. The red-dress woman stands neutrally with her arms at her sides. The progress bar reaches the happy emoji. The "Completed" banner appears with confetti.
Strategy & Reasoning
The puzzle logic is "undo each abnormal element one by one." The scene has three separate problems — the woman's flirtation, the man's sagging trousers, and the girlfriend's rage — and the progress bar tracks how many have been fixed. Each tap resolves one abnormality, and the final normal state requires all three to be corrected simultaneously.
The phone-number tattoo on the man's arm ("212-XXX-XXXX") and the "West Coast style" caption are flavor text explaining why his pants were sagging — it was a fashion pose for the other woman. Once the pants are pulled up and he holds hands with his actual girlfriend, the flirtation is over. The red cloth in the girlfriend's hand is likely a used tissue from crying; her white-rimmed eyes indicate she has been rubbing them in anger.
There is no option to make the red-dress woman disappear entirely. She remains standing in the final frame, but her flirtatious expression is gone — she is no longer winking or blowing kisses. The solution is not to remove her, but to restore normal behavior among all three.
Tips & Common Mistakes
- Mistake: trying to punch or remove the red-dress woman. She does not leave the scene. You only need to cancel her flirtatious cues (her winking and kiss-blowing) by interacting with her accessory. She remains present in the completed frame.
- Mistake: fixing only the girlfriend's face. If you clean up the girlfriend but leave the man's pants sagging or the kiss-blowing active, the progress bar will not complete. All three abnormalities must be resolved.
- Mistake: tapping the tattoo or the bag as separate puzzles. The tattoo and the designer bag are set dressing. The actual interactive items are the woman's wrist/accessory, the man's pants, and the hand-holding gesture.
