Thanks for clearing that up.

Damn!

Looks like I'll have to put Willy in the entrance to the Bedroom in
the Upper Landing then, but that doesn't really float my boat because
I wanted the player to be able to see their lovely bedroom before they
complete the game - just not be able to get to it.

Something's calling me. It's thick, and made of wood. It's the
drawing-board! ;(
