Jo leads escape through ventilation

Jo retrieves a compact flat-head screwdriver from a nearby tool drawer, specifically to pry open the ceiling hatch. She wedges the tool into the narrow gap of the rusted hinge, levering the hatch upward with focused effort despite resistance.

Before: The screwdriver was stored in a tool drawer within the radio room, likely among other navigational and mechanical tools used for maintenance.

After: The screwdriver is wedged into the hatch hinge, its tip biting into paint and sealant as Jo forces the hatch open, leaving the tool in place as she climbs into the shaft.
