Once completed, she receives the code which is "8-0-4", dives in and tries to unlock the lock. The code turns out to be incorrect. Brett Dalton takes over the transmission and tells her he has changed the order of the digits and that only a real Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. fan would know the correct order.
