  • 1 of 7: It would be pointless to go back and hold the breaker switch while she crosses, so think about a different route she might take to get to you.
  • 2 of 7: Remember that stairwell you were in earlier?
  • 3 of 7: What was wrong with the door on the floor below the one with the electrical box?
  • 4 of 7: It had something blocking it on its other side.
  • 5 of 7: Look around in the area past the cables to see if you can find a door that's blocked by something.
  • 6 of 7: Sure 'nuff, there's a door a ways to the right of the cables that has a large box in front of it.
  • 7 of 7: Click on the box to push it aside and allow Anna Maria to come through the door.
