Could break a window, or open your trunk with the key, lay down the seats, climb through, pop the hood and open the doors

Jack up the front of the car. Have a small jump starter. Put the positive (red) one large post of the starter and ground the other jumper cable. You should be able to unlock the door with the fob or the key on the door.
