Where is the REPCONN research labs key?

Question

In the "Come Fly With Me" quest chain, I just finished clearing the basement of nightkin and sent Harland away. After going back upstairs, I can't open the research labs door to talk to the ghoul Jason again because I don't have the key. Using the intercom only allows me to be told "stop messing around with the intercom".

(Also, the lock is not pick-able.)

Answer 1

Try leaving the area and coming back after 3 game days. You've definitely hit a glitch, one which oddly enough isn't accounted for on the Wiki.

Failing that, reload a saved game from before starting the quest, if you have one available.

Answer 2

Here's what you do: Go in FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS, Go to the door, STOP, Look to your you will find ANOTHER Intercom Activate and vióla!

Answer 3

When you stand in front of the door to the research lab is there an Intercomm on the wall to your right? If you activate that intercomm the Ghoul may open the door for you.
