If you can't get the physical emergency key to work, you can hook up an auxiliary battery. Get under the car and find the end of the battery positive cable, it's on the starter solenoid. Attach a positive jumper cable to it. Then attach the negative jumper cable to a ground. Now you've got battery power. And that auxiliary battery can bein another car.

keyless remote has a hidden key ...next pop the driver door handle cover next to the pull handle to expose the tumbler lock. youtube should have a video for this.
