Emergency Car Lockout: Please Help!
Ugh, it happened again! My car lockset is missing. It seems like I've misplaced them yet again. Now, here I am, stranded outside my own vehicle with a rapidly waning amount of patience.

Oh No! My Keys Are Trapped Inside The Vehicle.
It's a frustrating scenario, let me tell you. I was messing around in my trunk/backseat and now the door/vehicle is locked tight, and my keys are trapped inside. I've tried everything to get in: jiggling the handle, looking for a spare key, even trying to force it open with a credit card/piece of plastic. Nothing is working! I'm starting to feel like I'm trapped in a movie.
