Basically, the Vivarium was one   
big square with four corridors that    
formed the outside perimeter. In the   
center was another corridor that       
separated the square in half.          
     As we passed that center corridor,
I pointed out which side Cage-Wash was 
on.                                    
     “I'll show you inside some other  
time,” I told her, and we continued    
down the outside corridor.             
     When we got close, I could see    
that the blinds were open. I stopped   
Beth and snuck up to take a look       
inside.                                
     The coast was clear.              
     I used my card to get us in, and  
Beth was right behind me. I closed the 
small curtain, walked across the small 
room and turned the knob that led into 
* the Secret Room.                         
     It was locked. "Damn! This can't  
be right. She told me she’d leave the  
door unlocked for me. Damn."           
     I climbed up on the desk and      
hollered into the room, “Amy, are you  
in there?”                             
     I thought I could hear someone    
whispering, but other than that,       
nothing.                               
     Dreading the worst, I looked      
around for something to use on the     
door.                                  
     While Beth watched me searching   
the room, she asked, "Is this it       
Criminal? Is this the end of the       
prank?” and then paused, before adding,
“All I have to do now, is imagine      
there's a talking Cat behind that door,
but unfortunately, I don't actually get
to see it. Was that your whole plan?
