Rose and Adam flee the room, running out to the control station where the two guards are.
"It's killing him -- do something!"
They can't help the man in the room -- he's already dead -- but the guard puts out a red alert, lets van Statten know what's happened, then seals the compartment.
The Doctor's on the other end of the comm screen now and Rose tells him it's her fault. The guard thinks they're safe now, the Dalek won't be able to crack the code -- but the alien's a genius. It can do it and, while Rose, Adam and the soldiers watch, tense -- it does.
Shooting at it does no good, and when one soldier tells the other to get her and Adam out alive, Rose doesn't argue. She hesitates just a second, then runs.
The Doctor'll think of something to save the day. He always does.
