The 2x4 will fall in with the food and the rat. After eating the food, the rat will climb out using the 2x4 and reposition it on the counter so the dad will put out more food.

If the board fell in, I feel like the rat would just use it as a ladder to escape

I think the rat would gnaw through the plastic garbage can to escape.

That rat ain’t gonna be trapped for 5 seconds. It has an escape ladder going into the bucket with it when it falls

It doesn’t need the ladder. Rats can jump vertically over 4 feet with no assistance. Source: had pet rats.

The rat will probably be able to stand on the wood after having fallen in.

It actually looks like it has a spring or hinge or something under the board on the garbage can. It may very well be an acme product.
