+*note: need to check mice eating behavior when fed, might want to add a section where she actually handles and feeds them*
+Emily closes the cage and put the *whatever they feed the mice* back into the cupboard. She *does something related to taking care of the mice*, steps out into the hallway, and starts walking. The entire habitat is eerily quiet. Apart from her steps, just the hum of the electrical systems and the quiet whirr of the air circulation are audible.

+3 - 5 - 2 - 1 - Enter. The keypad beeps with every button press. A computer voice announces "Access authorized". The door to the main control center module slides up and she steps through. The module contains one large room with rows of integrated computer equipment desks arranged *need a fitting description of what a mission control rom looks like*. The wall to the left that most of the seats are facing is completely taken up by a panorama window into the biosphere, an even larger module with a ceiling of glass and support beams completely taken up by plant life, trees, small animals, and a big pond. The wall to the right holds a large status panel with some seven-segment displays for information and lots of big status indicator symbols.

+Emily walks down the shallow stairs towards the panorama window. In front of the window are tables and chairs that were moved there recently as the room had become more of a general hangout spot for the remaining people when they were still around. Lena sits at one of them, *preparing something* while waiting for her.

+*missing dialog about food and starting to eat*
+
+They get interrupted by all of the equipment in the room suddenly coming alive. All of the computer desks that weren’t perviously active turn on. Some of the status indicators on the back wall start blinking. A large, green triangle with the letters LINK flickers and then lights up. Emily looks at it in confusion.
+"What does that light mean?" She gestures towards it.
+"That’s them."
+"Earth people?"
+"Yes", Lena replies while quickly finishing her meal, "they said they’d try to get a phone connection going."
+As if on cue, the phone on the large center console begins to ring. Lena gets up and walks over, Emily follows her. Lena picks up the receiver and presses a few buttons.
+The speakers on the console starts crackling and hissing. Through the noise, they hear a faint voice. Lena sits down in front of a microphone and talks into it:
+"We can’t hear you, one moment."
+Then, she turns to one of the computer terminals and types in a command.
