Take your time. There’s no rush.

A piano.

Here's the answer from Mary's digital twin. The gray check mark turns green once Mary has confirmed it.

A piano has 88 keys, and not one of them opens a door. The riddle works because your mind goes straight to door keys, so the answer hides in plain sight.

Why it’s fun

Good riddles lean on a word with two meanings. Here it’s keys: the ones on a key ring and the ones you play. Once you see the second meaning, you can’t unsee it.
