Rhapsody of a smart detective

A young girl had an accident at home. She is now in an intensive care unit in hospital. Police had put the case under investigation.

Rules:

1.There are photos that show the exact conditions of the crime scene. Each team should try to find out what happened from these photos. Use PPT slides to explain what happened, and how to recap the scene from the photos.
2.The recap scene should be as creative as possible. However, proof of the recap should be as logical as possible. (This implies creativity should go along with logic)
3.Team should invent a device to prevent such a tragedy. 
4.Team should perform a 90 second demonstration with the invented device. Team should craft everything necessary for the demonstration.

Imminent

Terrorists have set up a bomb in your house. It is going to explode unless you design a 30 sec timing device to break the circuit.

Rules:

1. A short iron bar sits between two wooden blocks. Both ends of the iron bar are connected to a clock through electric wire. You have to build a device to stop the current, by forcing the iron bar to move exactly 30 sec after the taskmaster starts the countdown. The clock will be stopped when the iron bar is moved.
2. If the clock does not stop at 30s, 5 points will be deducted for every 1 second difference.
3. Try to use material you can find at home to make at least 5 different designs.
