Terminal Escape Room Interns Quarters: Chapter 5 Walkthrough

Solve the Terminal Escape Room Interns Quarters computer logins, locker assignment, and mug DNA puzzle in Chapter 5 to obtain the Level 2 keycard.

The Interns' Quarters is the opening office hub of Chapter 5: Infiltration in Terminal [Escape Room], a Roblox puzzle game created by CCF Studios. Escaping the initial vent leads straight into this office area, where players must solve a chain of employee credentials to retrieve the Level 2 Keycard. Standard Mode requires linking three computer accounts and matching office DNA, whereas Beginner Mode streamlines the search to the kitchen appliances.

Room Mode Selection and Setup

Terminal allows solo play or groups of one to five players, offering two distinct puzzle tracks for Chapter 5. Standard Mode features multi-tier credential deduction, while Beginner Mode reworks the layout for younger audiences and newcomers.

Room Option	Best Application	Requirements and Trade-offs
Beginner Mode	Players new to escape rooms who want direct object searches	Operates with a 90-minute timer and places the card directly in the kitchen dishwasher
Standard Mode	Groups seeking the full investigative email and DNA puzzle track	Operates with a 100-minute timer and requires three computer logins plus mug identification
Infinite Time Pass	Teams that need unlimited puzzle time without lobby resets	Costs 299 Robux and applies to the entire group if one player owns the pass

Standard Mode: Computer Logins and Account Chain

Standard Mode requires collecting login credentials across multiple employee mailboxes located on the office terminals.

Pick up the Level 1 Keycard and the note from Janice left beside the starting vent.
Interact with any office computer and log in using the details from Janice's note: UserID jstewart and Password TXcpi480.
Read the inbox messages to locate the credentials for coworker Neha Dickinson: UserID nehadksn and Password KRAsnw22.
Log out and sign in under Neha's account to find the email containing credentials for Thomas Slade: UserID tslade and Password 3bw1rwxx.
Sign in as Thomas Slade and read his emails to find two details: a locker swap notice and an email titled Onboarding Puzzle.

Unlocking Locker 27 and Finding the Level 2 Keycard

The email records show that Thomas Slade originally held Locker 2, but swapped with Neha Dickinson for Locker 27. Unlocking Locker 27 requires Thomas's DNA profile rather than a numeric passcode.

Locate the Kitchen door in the office and unlock it using the Level 1 Keycard.
Pick up the cloth wrapped around the oven door handle.
Solve the Onboarding Puzzle email to identify Thomas's mug, which sits on the table to the right of the locker room entrance with a black dot on its left-middle section.
Interact with the mug using the cloth to collect the DNA sample.
Enter The Locker room and apply the DNA sample to Locker 27.
Take the Level 2 Keycard from inside the opened locker.

With the Level 2 Keycard secured, the door marked The Testing Room opens from the main office floor.

Beginner Mode Alternative Solution

Beginner Mode removes the multi-step login procedure and DNA swabbing:

Collect the starting Level 1 Keycard and Janice's letter.
Review the ten assigned staff lockers displayed in the area.
Enter the kitchen and open the dishwasher.
Pick up the Level 2 Keycard resting directly inside the dishwasher and proceed to the Testing Room.

Returning to the Interns' Quarters for Level 4 Clearance

The Interns' Quarters terminal comes into play a second time after players clear the Testing Room and the Electrical Room wiring. To manufacture the Level 4 Keycard in the Printing Room, you must identify an employee authorized to produce high-security cards.

Walk back from the Electrical Room corridor into the Interns' Quarters.
Access the computer terminal using Thomas Slade's login: UserID tslade and Password 3bw1rwxx.
Open the email titled Keycard Security Issues.
Check the sender field, which lists the surname Aotlo.
Use the username aotlo later at the Printing Room terminal to access the printer controls after resetting the password via security questions found in the Archives.
