Looks like someone will need the lock picking lawyer!
These locks are super easy to pick. Now, picking it yourself? That’s a whole other issue lol.
Go to the nearest fire station: they have bolt cutters.

Just use bolt cutters. Simple as.
If they were able to lock it so quickly, it means it’s probably not a key-retaining lock, which means the locking pawls are spring-loaded, which means you can shim it.
I had to look up “wave rake” cuz I’m a moron and thought it was like an introductory brand lock pick device or something.
You meant like a comb, didn’t you?
🤦♂️
Edit: oh man, I’m so happy I was wrong lol I felt so dumb
Lockpicking rakes work very differently from combs.
Raking is a low-skill attack that can easily defeat low-quality locks. The rake is a metal strip (often wave-shaped, but others exist) which you have to move around inside the keyway while applying torque. Some of the pins will randomly get caught at the shear line; repeat until the lock is opened. This type of attack can be prevented by using security pins (like spools, barrels, or serrated pins) that get stuck in the shear line.
A comb attack is different. Some locks are so poorly designed that you can use a comb-shaped tool to lift all of the key pins above the shear line and completely bypass the security.

No Linus, don’t post selfies on the Internet, they might be misused.
we engage in moderate tomfoolery, if you will
What would you even do in that situation lol
Either pick it open or get some bolt cutters, I would imagine.
given the quality of most locks you can probably just hold a hairpin menacingly in front of it and it’ll pop open.
That’s not gonna be fun grinding off
Just a bit of tomfoolery.
This is my biggest fear.
This is the lock picking lawyer and what I have for you today…
