 This section can be tricky, particularly for gear-dependent characters, as the player is required to put all of their equipment (including what they are wearing) in the Item Container at the entrance to proceed. The items are then transferred to the (locked) Decontamination office and the player must find a way to get into the security office to get their items back while avoiding security cameras, [[Seahorse Plasma Turret]]s, [[Strongman|Strongmen]] and [[Handmaiden]]s.

If the Strongmen can be avoided, a player can run up the stairwell to the west end of that area and use the console to open up all of the storage rooms (and their attendant spiders). If the Strongmen are still alive and active, they will fight the spiders for the player. The northeastern storage area has a broken wall that allows access back to the entrance area where a console can be used to lift the lockdown and disable the cameras and turrets.
