You fight back tears as you realize the air isn’t going to last as long as you’d hoped. Only then does the thought flash through your mind: you’ve got to do something. You’re fighting for your life! You rattle the door, jiggle it, and shake it. You charge at it, crashing your shoulder against it with as much force as you can bring to bear. The door holds firm.

By wedging your knife under a second panel, you’re able to loosen it enough to pry it off with your fingers. You do the same with the third and fourth panels.

You bend down to keep from fainting. Then you force yourself to straighten up and keep working. If you pass out now, you’ll never wake up! Cocking your arm back, you smash at the sheetrock. Again.
