The moment Briggs makes that sound, Mike turns away. He seems to be pacing at first, but he stops before making a return trip. He stands with his arms sternly folded, his back to the bed. He's once again placed himself between the man and the camera to give him some sense of privacy.
He doesn't say anything. His own adrenaline is still running too high. He taps his fingers against his biceps, running over everything. Again and again. Trying to see some angle he's missed. Something to use against their captor. All while staring defiantly at the camera. But without Briggs to yell at, the pressure of his pants grows more and more distracting. Like a fog creeping over his mind. No. He needs to focus. There has to be a way to out think their captor. He's arrogant and smarmy. Smart, but the sort to underestimate people. There has to be a way out. They can't break down the door, but...
Before the idea was even fully formed, he was moving for the closet. Digging through the items in there. Looking for anything involving electricity, or batteries. If he turns up nothing, he'll try prying into the camera. If a door's lock can be engaged remotely it can be overridden.
