i was exploring the BoS hidden valley bunker, and stumbled upon the firing range and saw knight torres in a shop like thing. i went over and my companion, Veronica, said something to knight torres, who then went down the staircase behind her, and then started walking towards the door below as she would if she were going to the barracks or something. instead of opening the door, she walk up to it then stands there, forever. i cannot open the door because the key to it is in her inventory (there is no possible way for me to reach her, or talk to her, or pickpocket here, or even shoot her through the wire like floor.

any help would be appreciated!

Sounds like a real game breaker,you might have to go back a few hours of play in the hope it sorts itself out,though you've probably tried that already.

yup, i tried already. maybe i'll get lucky and there will be a cutscene or something that has here teleport away from her bugged position.
