Lisa had been enjoying the feelings of her dad's exploration when she heard the beep of a keycard and then the click of a door latch. She shot upright and sat properly in her chair, clenching her legs, pretending to be hard at work.
"Excuse me, miss...", the woman said. Judging from her dress, she had to be one of her dad's coworkers. "Miss Jordan... Lisa," Lisa answered, hoping not to get in trouble for being unattended here, she offered up an immediate excuse, "Uh, dad had to go to the washroom, I was just waiting here for him."
"Ah, excellent," the raven-haired lady said, "I'll check back again in a few minutes... Or, could you have him call me, please? Extension 7226."
Lisa wrote it down on a scrap of paper and nodded to her, happy her ploy was working. "I'll have him call you when he returns," she said.
After she watched the woman leave, Lisa panicked. She wasn't about to take the fall for her dad's absence, or for explaining specifically WHY she was alone in his lab; security required visitors to have an escort, no exceptions. Lisa was not ready for confrontations today.
What does Lisa do?
