It's all fun and games until some old soldier figures out there is no functional exit and tragically kills a caretaker.
It'd make a hell of a Twilight Zone episode! Old war buddies walk around with a notebook, counting their steps, methodically constructing a map, just for fun. When they realize there's only one exit, they argue back and forth about which one of them is senile... They bring in a couple more octogenarians to check their work. The ragtag group stakes out the one exit, they see young people coming and going freely... etc. Maybe it should be a comedy?
