Needle Pit

== Design and Function ==
The needle pit was a trap located on the upper floor of the Nerve Gas House. The pit was actually a giant hole in the center of one of the rooms. It was filled with over tens of thousands of filthy, used syringes. Additionally, there were two doors in the room. The first one was a wooden door through which the room could be entered. The other door, located at the back part of the room, was a heavy metal door. Behind it was a syringe with an antidote for a deadly nerve agent that the prisoners in the house were breathing in. Attached to this door was a timer with a small metal pin. A long cord connected the pin with the first door. When someone opened it, he or she would subsequently tauten the cord and therefore pull the metal pin out of the timer, resulting in its activation. After this, the victim had to find the key to the metal door as soon as possible, as it would be permanently locked after a short time, making it impossible to obtain the antidote. The key was attached to a glow stick plugged in one of the countless syringes in the pit. 
== History ==
=== Xavier Chavez' Test ===
As the group made its way through the house, they eventually came across a door on the upper floor. As it was the only one without a lock, the prisoners tried to get in. Addison unsuccessfully attempted to open it, remarking that it was stuck. Therefore, Xavier angrily shoved her away and attempted to open it by brute force to which Amanda responded that the room was most likely a trap. Xavier sarcastically told her that the whole house was a trap and went on until he finally managed to open the door. Unfortunately, this caused a metal pin to be pulled out of a timer which was connected to another door. Daniel told Laura to wait in the hallway and followed the rest of the group into the room. An audio tape left for Xavier by Jigsaw told him that there was another antidote behind the second door. However, it would be locked permanently if he didn't manage to find the key in time. Moments later, Daniel found a pit full of thousands of used syringes hidden under a bed. According to Jigsaw, the key to the door was somewhere in the pit.
After listening to the tape, Xavier demanded that one of the others had to crawl into the pit and get the key. However, when they refused, he grabbed Amanda, who immediately panicked. As the remaining members of the group were afraid of Xavier, they stood back and watched how he ruthlessly threw her in the pit. While the needles were piercing her skin, Xavier became more and more angry and yelled at her to hurry up. Frightened and in pain, Amanda rifled through the syringes until she eventually found one which had the key attached to it. When she threw it out of the pit, Xavier grabbed it and tried to open the door while Daniel helped Amanda to climb out of the pit. Unfortunately, Xavier didn't manage to open the door in time and angrily tried to attack Amanda but was only held back by Jonas. While Daniel carefully pulled the needles out of Amanda's skin, Xavier ultimately separated from the group.
