Howard wrenches away and also goes for the door handle - unfortunately, he and Diana mostly get in each other's way. Mr. Frederick gets up and grabs them both by the back of their shirts - he's a big man, and it's not difficult, despite the struggling.
"I have them in here!" He yells when he hears a car engine, and two police officers open the store room door. "They're trying to run!"
Howard goes slack seeing they're outnumbered, and puts his hands up. He knows logically Brit police aren't armed, but he's smaller than them anyway. One of the officers pries Mr. Frederick's arms off the two teens.
"Alright, let them go, they're not going anywhere. Let's find out what's going on here. No more roughhousing."
