A vast chamber filled with emergency escape pods, most of which are fake. The ship's owner cut costs by installing only a handful of working lifeboats and filling the rest with VR headsets to simulate rescue. The real pods are locked behind a biometric scanner that only recognizes VIP passengers or those with a stolen wristband.
