Ultimate Ending: The Strange Physics of the Heidelberg Laboratory Part 4
Penny's suspicious of Jay because he seems to know more than what he's telling us. When we arrive at the Control Room after finding out Maintenance Room #1 was a bust, Jay tells us we'll have to take the air ventilation shaft to get to #3 on time. "Penny smirks. 'The air vents? Seriously?' Jay shrugs. 'Why not? It worked in Die Hard. Come on, in you go".
Never take advice from anyone who thinks crawling through the air vents is safe because he watched Die Hard once. Besides, doing this in La Prisión hacked my character to pieces.
"You land on nimble feet inside the room. A moment later Penny drops next to you. She gives you a smug grin. The room is identical to the previous one, with computer banks of dials and knobs covering three walls. You begin examining the instruments, looking for any clue as to what system this is for, but everything really does look the same. 'Let's just turn it on', Penny says. Before you can say anything, she throws the lever.
One light next to the switch flashes green for three seconds. Then more lights join it, and then the hum of computer fans and clicking of hard drives, until the entire room is operational. 'Okay', Penny says, looking expectantly. 'Figure out if this is the right one.' You squint at the measurements on the nearest screen. They don't really look familiar. Another screen doesn't give much data either. You move to the other side of the room and examine the data there. It's all just numbers!
Finally one dial sticks out. It says O2 Percentage, and the needle is hovering around 30 percent. Next to it is another dial that says N2 Percentage. That one is about 70 percent. 'O2 is oxygen, and N2 is nitrogen', you say. 'The two most common elements in the air we breathe. That means this is the Maintenance Room for the oxygen system!' 'Aww man', Penny says. 'Two in a row!'
'Only one place left to look', you say cheerfully. You stride over to the door. 'Can't go wrong this time!' The door handle won't move. You try it again, but it doesn't budge. It's locked, and there's no way to open it from the inside. Penny realizes what's wrong. She tilts her head back to look up at the vent. 'Can we get back up there?'
You try lifting Penny up to the vent, but even on your tiptoes you can't reach it. She tries the door herself next, putting her foot up against the frame for leverage. It's no good. You're stuck. Maybe Jay will eventually come looking for you. Hopefully that will be before the laboratory suffers a meltdown. But even if it is, for now you have reached. . .THE END".
My CANONICAL ENDING is Inconclusive. We're trapped in the wrong Maintenance Room with some false hope of escape.

"I wonder what that even looks like, a robot body with six or seven CatClaw daggers sticking out of it and nothing else, and zooming around at crazy agility speed."
