Open orange 17, peel the yellow and red-brown rug borders, then transition through teal, cyan, white, red, and charcoal in the medallion.

If the player asks you to sign in, open the video on YouTube instead.

Start with orange 17, then take yellow 15, red-brown 24, red-brown 9, yellow 16, and the remaining orange 17.
Reduce red-brown through 20 and yellow through 8, then move orange 13 and red-brown 2 into the newly exposed border.
Clear orange 27 and 5 with yellow 25 and 28, followed by orange 24 and 4 while yellow falls through 9 and 13.
Use orange 21, red 24, yellow 7, and yellow 8, then continue orange 20, charcoal 14, and the yellow 3 and 4 remnants.
Transition into teal 14, red 4, and cyan 10; follow with orange 13, white 12, then orange 10, teal 8, and white 1.
Drain orange 5 and teal 4 before cyan 32, then take charcoal 22 and rotate cyan 23, orange 23, and white 11 through the medallion.
Continue white 3, cyan 3, orange 15, and red 23, followed by charcoal 6, orange 6, white 30, teal 7, and red-brown 11.
Finish cyan 36, teal 3, white 12, white 31, and teal 9; then use cyan 26, yellow 13, white 1, teal 1, followed by cyan 18, red 10, and yellow 5. Take charcoal 25 next, add yellow 32 while cyan falls from 13 to 10, then clear charcoal 22, orange 11, red 15, white 40, and yellow 8 before white 3 and yellow 1.

Colors in this level:

Yellow, Orange, Red, Red-brown, Cyan, White, Teal, Charcoal

Starting cyan 32 before orange 5 and teal 4 drain leaves the warm border and cool center competing for capacity.
Ignoring the white 1 remnant during the teal 8 transition delays the white 12 and later white 30 center groups.

Board notes 5 details

Layout: A square woven rug has layered orange, yellow, and red-brown borders around a cyan-and-white floral medallion with teal, red, and charcoal details.
Goal: Strip the rectangular borders, clear the cyan field and white center, then finish the red, teal, yellow, and charcoal floral details.
Opening: The recorded active sequence starts orange 17, then yellow 15, red-brown 24, red-brown 9, yellow 16, and orange 17.
Danger Zone: The warm border is still active when teal 14, red 4, cyan 10, and white 12 appear. Starting cyan 32 before orange 5 and teal 4 finish overlaps both phases.
Mechanics: Concentric warm shells expose a cool medallion; small white and teal remnants control when the larger cyan groups can drain.
