I'm signifying with the stars again. There was also a guard in each of these rooms. The hostages were tied and here "there was a guard and the triggers for the claymores were out here. And this was a big bay area which just some small stuff stacked way down here. Now that doesn't make any sense to me. I don't remember seeing a door' remember seeing a hallway going that way. Just a stairs and a hall this way. It may be that that appears to be a second floor bay area and I'm just looking down on what's stacked on the lower floor. #66 So you are saying that there's not a full second floor, then? #01 I don't know now. I remember seeing only this hallway and the stairs, though. #01 I don't know. I don't know. These are definitely windows here, though.

There is apparently is more guards down here, too.
