I got the master key, but got stuck after that, as I couldn't tell anything from what I was seeing! Which was the goal, I guess.

Also, I think I saw the final door through two windows next to each-other, and there may have been a door I was supposed to open and get through to that room, but I couldn't figure out how to go through the door after opening it.
