You stumble up to the monitor as the door slides closed behind you. You're safe. You're not too familiar with this hardware, but still you manage to set the door's electronic lock. You relax and take a closer look at the rest of the monitor. You're currently looking through one of the security cameras-- "Cam 2," according to the bar at the top of the monitor. You seem to have a variety of commands available to type into the computer, and it would seem that someone is attempting to establish some sort of wireless connection to this particular workstation. Enter a command.

You tell Langer what you know; namely, that you are currently at what would appear to be a security console and that you are currently safe. He responds,
"Well, that's fucking great, but what about my DAUGHTER."
You tell him that you'll flip through the security cameras to find her. He says,
"Okay. She looks a little like me... but also a little like her mother.... Uh... She works here, so maybe that'll help." You tell that there's a key or something on top of those locker before, on a hunch, you flip to Camera 1.
Something certainly seems wrong with that equipment...
Langer asks,
"Well? Do you see 'er?"

possibly, she is on cam one, where that is feeding from you don't know, but the door directly in front of you may be it.

"She has the same hair color as me, uh, coarse blond or somethin'."
You tell Langer that you see a woman that might fit his description, and that she might be behind the door down the hall from him.
"Fuck, yeah?! Great!" Langer says. Quite suddenly, the woman that you viewing from camera 1 is surprised by something coming from the door behind her.
You tell him that something also seems, "oof" about her, to which he replies,
"Of course, she's got her dad's spookish but good looks! Now open the damned door, you cocksucker!" Langer yells at you.

Cody has agreed that his colleague should be extracted from the locked room, but he considers how Langer should have been escorted from the facility by security, before being alarmed, apparently by the fact that he has not seen security recently.

It's probably for the best if you don't rely on making readers translate things in order to move the plot along, yeah. Even if it's a language that can be mostly translated correctly by an online translator like French. It's fine to use as flavortext as a nod to those who know it or if it's used in a multiple choice option, but that's about it.

You access the PA and say to Langer, "Do you know what happened to the facility's security? And who's this 'Madame Renard' that you apparently had a meeting with?"

You then hear Cody reply in a thick accent, "Very good, but, do insult me not, please."
"Yeah, okay," Langer says as he is handed the communicator, before directing his attention back to you.
"Asshole. Anyway, listen, this dick is totally fuckin' crazy, I think. Shot at me, pretty much as soon as he saw me. I really wanna get that gun outta his hands."
"Anyway, I'm only here to visit my daughter. She's alaways said she wanted me to see where she worked, and then one day, I decided why the hell not. Last I saw of any security was the guy that was takin' me to my daughter. I met my daughter at the exit of the elevator, signed in to their database thing, walked around the place with her. But then Abby said that she had to do some important shit and left. Security guy found me alone and was walkin' me back when he told me to stay in that room while he went and checked somethin'. He was gone awhile, and the door he left through was locked, so I looked in a locker and found that little phone piece-o'-shit. Then I just punched some random numbers, and bam. I called you."
"By the way, what the fuck were you talkin' about, a fuckin', 'ghost?'"

>shot at me; wanna get gun outta his hands
That's understandable, sure. Apparently something bad went down here, so Cody here's a little on the jumpy side. But he's calmed down a bit now, so don't act on that impulse just yet.

>left alone
Well then, apparently something happened while you were waiting for the guard to come back. Might have something to do with that ghost thing.

>GHOST
Well, first this thing suddenly appeared and was sneaking up on the person who appears to be your daughter, but then disappeared when she turned to look at it. Then I ran across it again on one of the other camfeeds. It issued a verbal threat and then the feed died. Whatever it is, whether ghost or otherwise, is certainly quite the malevolent type. Probably killed all the guards and is working on killing everyone else here: you, me, your daughter, and your French-speaking friend there.
