We didn't get a chance to try it, we died because I forgot that the underpants were our only protection from deadly chafing. We should try hanging any other item, like a sock, on the window ledge, to make it look like we went out that way, hide behind the door and push the Borg out of the window! Right, okay. All the evidence we have seems to be pointing to a stealthy exit into the corridor, but let's try this then. So what are we doing? repeating the previous string of commands but with a sock instead of pants? Do it! I've been thinking about this all day and want to find out how far we can get. |

HANG sock over window ledge.
UNLOCK and OPEN door.
DO Combat Yodel.
HIDE behind door.
GET ready to PUSH whoever comes through door out of window, or failing that, SHOUT "YAAAAH!" in his face and see how he reacts.
What's the worst that can happen?

You unlock and open the door and give out an impressive shout. You hide behind the door and get ready to act should an aggressor enter the room.
Alas, nothing happens.

You reflect on past arguments you have had with people and regret the times your ignorance and stubbornness prevented you from considering their side. Your mood changes from optimistic having escaped near death at the hand of the beasts outside and finally opening the door to mournful as you take the points people made to you during heated debates past.
They seem so long ago now and so far away, you resolve to find the answers to your current situation, if for nothing else as recompense for your past misdeeds.

It's second guessing time again then. Did the game think we wouldn't connect the location of the outer door from the courtyard to the corridor and assume we'd go right to avoid the cyborg, thus going the wrong way, or is it too obvious to head straight to the exit door so we need to go right to explore the building first and perhaps find that's the way we need to go after all? I'm thinking we still need to find something like a manual for the bike so we don't crash it, and as Blueshift wants to go right, let's do that. WAIT until cyborg has passed ENTER corridor CLOSE door (to make it look like we're still inside) LOOK Let's just hold on actually moving until we know there isn't anything directly outside the door we need to pick up first. I've lost track of where we are now, but assuming the door is unbolted and we've got our pants on let's go back to the above. |

You wait a few moments before tentatively taking a step into the corridor quietly closing the door behind you.
New location: Corridor (+3 points)
You take a good look at your location. The door behind you has an old sign on it that states 'Facilities'. Opposite the door is a sign that points to the right with an escalating zig-zag line.
Failing fluorescent strip lightning hangs from the ceiling projecting an eerie glow that flickers on a indeterminate schedule. To the right the corridor turns a corner, you can't see what's further on, but it's where the robot thing has disappeared to. It'll no doubt be back at some point soon though. To the left you can see an open security gate that leads into what looks like the building's main foyer.
Beyond that the corridor is empty.

Right! We're cooking now!
So, left to the main entrance where the crowbar is outside, or right up the stairs to follow the cyborg. Still want to go right, Blue?

You take your opportunity to follow the corridor in the opposite direction from the thing that has been on its patrol. You go through the security gate to be met with a pleasant looking foyer of sorts with good lighting and a breezy, well maintained decor.
To your left is a computer terminal, along the same wall are the glass doors to the courtyard you observed previously from the window. Through the glass you see the dog-like creatures continuing to prowl outside. To the left is a welcome booth which appears to be accessed through a side door.
The counter of the booth is behind security glass, restricting access to a control panel of sorts. On the back wall of the booth, a cabinet.

This foyer sounds more like an office building than a prison or factory. Still thinking about where we might be. The control panel maybe the way to open the main door, but I don't think we want to do that yet because of the dogs. The booth sounds like a good option to hide in if the cyborg comes back on patrol. So let's try the side door to the booth?
OPEN side door.

The door is large and full windowed with what looks like reinforced security glass. Doesn't look hinged, perhaps it slides? You search for a key hole of some kind, control panel or anything that will open the door, but nothing is there.

That's the same response we got when we tried to open the front door from outside. No evidence of a key card slot or release mechanism.

There's a small green light in the bottom right corner under the display, at least it seems powered despite currently displaying a blank screen.

Side door to booth, as per description. Not glass doors to courtyard. I've let the software guys know. Hopefully the command engine will be upgraded in the future. It's locked.
