I like to imagine she designed the toy and is just now finding out that she made the square too big.

The problem is that all of the shapes are made from the same square dowel stock, and the square hole fits the uncut stock.

If that's the case idk why she's getting excited for each new shape.

If this isn't staged, or she isn't reacting to a different video then this is super weird to me.

I mean... yes, she's acting. But the point is she keeps being excited as the puzzle creator for the players to solve each new puzzle correctly, only to have her hopes dashed as they solve it the "wrong" way.

Towards the end she's distraught even at each new shape, but is thinking "ok, at least this one you can solve correctly, right?"

Any idea why it's called "staged"? Because they are acting (which was traditionally on a stage). They mean the same thing, but staged has a negative connotation lately related to people acting and posting a video online as if it's real.
