The time grates, but not as much as the sound of the two giants lifting the manhole cover.
"Bah. No way am I goin' down there..." one says.
"Hey, if he went, we follow."
"He didn't go down there. If he'da used this ladder, he'd surely have left a trail through the goop."
"You're right. Still, I don't think that the boss is gonna be happy when we report back that we lost him."
"Hey, we got plenty of time to think up excuses before we get back to the base, dude."
They're heading back to their hideout! Perhaps you should tag along with them, to find out who's behind this whole caper, even though taking the watch to them may not be well advised.
Or you could carry through with your original scheme, waiting until they've exited before trying to get back to your own headquarters.
