Our house has a mouse.

Explanation:

The big-picture answer in Maria's note is the discovery of a mouse in the house she shares with Jackie. In the note, Maria is explaining that she will spend time at her parents' house and that she has found a mouse in the house. The rest of the note is filled with information on how Maria discovered the rat's existence and what Jackie must do to get rid of it. With all this information we can say that big-picture answer is the existence of the mouse in the house, this can be seen in the sentence: "Our house has a mouse."
