Reason for hint? What am I missing?

Hidden in my bedroom, I'd tied the flowers with a pretty bow. HINT: Gaspard is speaking (man). 


Dissimulé dans ma chambre, j'avais lié (or attaché) les fleurs avec un joli nœud.


Why do we have this hint? What would change if the speaker were female?

Maarten K.C1 Kwiziq Q&A super contributor Correct answer

Dissimulé would be dissimulée (adjectival agreement with gender).

Ah, I thought “hidden” referred to the flowers…

Yes, I had that thought initially too, but “les fleurs dissimulées” would then be needed !
