Well then. 

Check out the elevator to the right.

You slowly pass your light over the walls to see more...

Ponder the ineffable mysteries of alcoholic beverages.  Specifically, what you left home, yes?

Then, try the big giant switchy thing.

A big, pricey bottle of tequila. Just waiting to be used. Add some grenadine, cola, and bam! Saturday Night Special. It's a bit of a guilty pleasure, as you're afraid if you told anyone you drank it, they'd think it was absolutely disgusting. Oh well. You think you owe yourself one if you have to walk back in this rain. Anyways, that definitely looks like a switch over there...

(It occurs to me that it might be easy to miss, but the third panel there is animated)

That wire leads into a room, go and investigate in there.

The power seems to work (due to the sparks). That light is just broken. And the other light is missing.

That shouldn't stop the elevator from working unless the generator is actually broken.

(Phew. Had to redraw a thing because perspective was off, took much longer than expected)
Flip the big switchy thing.

Hmm, perhaps one more try...




..same result. Well, at least you're pretty sure that's the "on" position now.

The power seems to work (due to the sparks). That light is just broken. And the other light is missing.

That shouldn't stop the elevator from working unless the generator is actually broken.
That wire leads into a room, go and investigate in there.



There's that other fixture further up the tunnel, but on closer inspection, it seems the tube is missing entirely on that one. However, the wire seems to come from that room off to the side. Promising... you move your flashlight to your other hand and peek inside...

...But yeah +1 to the generator.

You step forward to inspect the generator. As you tread further from the entry tunnel, the sound of the pouring rain grows fainter, though the air isn't any warmer. You wish you had more layers on, though at least the poncho kept you mostly dry.



It's a generator, alright, though you can't find any indication of brand or model. Looks portable sized. You can see two rows of outlets above what looks like an indicator light. On top, there's a switch with an O and | on it, currently flipped to |, along with a big twist cap. There's a big cable running up the wall to a box, from which some cables run past a chain-link gate. Looks like there's some old paint over the box, which just about still reads "AUX POWER."

On one side of the generator, there's one of those big rectangular gas cans lying on the floor. On the other, looks like there's another row of outlets, with a fat cable leading over to a desk.
