[Entrapta's still rummaging. Lower to the ground now, easily in 'grab and drag' range. If necessary. Someone's going to notice the power outage any second!]
Wait, one more - !
[Despite the earlier focus, she can't help wanting to explore all the options!]
[ Catra is used to getting out of situations unseen and unheard, so she already was about to make her escape, but she notices Entrapta's not following.
She looks back, sees the finger on Entrapta's lips, then rolls her eyes and plops down.
From the kitchens, she hears the shuffling sound of movement, and then a shout: Hey, who raided the pantry?
Shit. They had to be smooth now or they'd be in trouble. ]
[Fortunately, Entrapta's done an excellent job fixing the grate back on. And between Catra's agility and her own hair? No traces to be found! Not normal ones, anyway! All they have to do is keep... still...
There's some really rude words as the technicians and cook scuffle around. Eventually throwing their hands up in frustration.]
[ And it takes about all of Catra's willpower to not yell back at them, giving her and Entrapta away, but for once, she checks herself in time. There's the grate separating them from the kitchens, anyway, and getting through that to properly yell would be too much effort.
Eventually, the grumbling dies down, and there's only shuffling to be heard from the kitchens as the cooks and technicians clean up the small mess they made. It's as good a time as any to make their escape, so Catra tugs on Entrapta's sleeve and jerks her head toward where the vent continues into darkness. ]

Go! I'm right behind you!
[Someone has to put the plate back! Otherwise someone will figure out this wasn't just faulty wiring!]

She presses a finger to her lips as the lights flash back on.]
