[He'll snatch the key and keep running towards the library. Hopefully the other two are following him.]
The trapdoor, the door in the billards room, and the door here. There's three ways to get into the smoking room and three of us. We each take as many keys as we can and try a different entrance.
I don't know how long it'll take, but we don't have any other options I can see here. If we can get to him fast enough, we might just have a chance.
...Yuzu died before a night had passed. I think we need to focus on the trapdoor; it's the one that seems most likely to open.
[In spite of this chaos, or perhaps because of it, Susan speaks calmly without any sense of panic.]
The person who takes the trapdoor should take more; the other two can take the ones already used. We'll need small containers to keep them to make sure we separate the ones we've already used from the ones we've yet to try.
Or we can tip the used ones in paint. [She doesn't let up until they're at the library, but she keeps talking to the two all the same.] Stiles, do you want to handle the trapdoor?
I've got pockets, I'll be able to take more. I'll drop by the kitchen on the way to grab cups, it's on the way. If one of us manages to get in, knock on the other two entrances so we're not stuck trying keys all night.
Annie and I will try the other two doors, then. Annie - the billiards room door opens into a bookcase. Lithuania and I moved that, so it should be as accessible as it can.
I'll go back to the drawing room since I made a promise to Gundam about something, but the two of us can swap keys very easily. We'll come bother you in the secret passage if we run out.
...It's accessible from the wine cellar. [In case Annie didn't know.]
[He unlocks the drawer with Annie's key and begins shoving as many as he can into his pockets.]
Normally I would be super curious about that but right now we've got bigger things to handle, so just shout my name or something, it's cool. Or get Susan. If you leave me down there all night I will...probably not do anything except try more keys, and then who'll feel like the idiot?
[Hello, Billiards Room Door. Setting camp before it, Annie starts trying one key after another, dipping the ineffective ones into a bag of flour before setting them aside.]
We've lost three. I'm not giving up on Gundam until we see his corpse. I mean his hamsters are fine and they're like his freaking horcruxes I bet, I wouldn't count him out yet.
[He'll wait until Annie grabs as many keys as she can before taking the rest and using the bottom of his shirt as a makeshift sack.]
Good luck, guys. [And he'll head down to the secret passageway in the basement, grabbing a couple of bowls from the kitchen along the way, and begin trying each key on the trapdoor. It's going to be a long night.]
[She yells as he runs out. Between Sonia dying, Gundam acting like a moron and everything else? She is officially more done with this bullshit than ever before.]

Susan, Annie - the keys! Tell me one of you has it on you!

Lithuania and i found the trapdoor in the smoking room earlier! It's locked from that passageway - you said there were hundreds of keys, didn't you?

Right. I'll... I'll have to wait outside the cellar. [Without explaining, she dashes to the billiard room.]

[As Stiles is stuffing his pockets, Susan will vanish momentarily before returning with a bowl from her room and filling up after he does.]
I'll pass some keys to her if it's necessary.
...
Things are coming to a head now. We lost four this week. Sonia was probably one of the ones --
[She cuts herself off. Stiles probably knew what she was going to say.]
What possessed Gundam to do something like that? ...I'll pick up his gun when I get back as well.
