Gael begins to worry as Adam is not accepting his excuse.

Adam calls down to Tech One. Kim struggles in her wheeled chair and knocks the ringing phone on the floor, but Adam hangs up before he hears it. He goes to the room to see for himself. However, his keycard will not open it. Adam calls Michelle and she resets the code, but it will take 15 seconds to sync.
