stopping routine after 20 seconds

I have my Echo Show set up with an Alexa routine to show the Blink doorbell camara when it detects motion. However, it stays on until you verbally tell it to end. Is there a way to have it go off after 20 seconds? Have tried, but cannot see how it would work.

Set up a second routine that triggers when your Blink doorbell camera detects motion and have it (1) wait for 20 seconds and (2) send a custom command that issues the verbal command you use to turn off the camera.
