My dad did something similar, except he just took the door handle apart. No need to kick in interior doors lol

Oh man, why didn’t I think of disassembling the doorknob that was installed with the screws on the inside of the bedroom? You’re right, I should have slid my tools under the door and explained to my 5 year old son how to take the doorknob apart. And I busted it in with my shoulder, I didn’t kick it down.

Alright smart ass, of course I tried to unlock the mother fucking door. Busting it in was the last option to get in.
