3 of 7: One offers to let you out by accessing the retinal scanner on your behalf.
4 of 7: You need to get him to follow you over to the scanner.
5 of 7: Use the Use key on him to get him to follow you. Run over to the scanner.
6 of 7: When the scientist gets within range, he will unlock the door for you.
7 of 7: Be hesitant moving into the next room, though. Things seem a little too quiet, and you may notice that the door on the other side is shut.
