This area almost made Indy miss the main hallway, which was also a ridiculously open space with nowhere to hide but at least had the advantage of a lot of other targets. Out here, it was just the two of them against everything else. He picked up speed as he got closer to the gate. For some reason, he kept conjuring up images of unseen snipers on the roof.
He still hadn't figured out what he was going to do if the gate didn't open easily by the time he reached it--wing it, probably; try to bash the lock off with the pipe. As luck would have it, the question didn't come up. Just a couple of seconds to get the catch up--not to mention an agonizing creak that he almost would've given his hat to silence--and the gate swung open.
Indy adjusted said hat a little sheepishly, hoping no one had heard that. He didn't plan on waiting around to find out.
