Dead battery, won't unlock manually! HELP!!!

Long story short, I left something plugged into the console 12v plug last night and it's killed my battery.

I go to manually unlock it today to jump start, and it will not unlock it at all. It will "twich" the door lock button that pops up/down, but it will not fully raise it to unlock the door. Yes I'm going full 90 degrees lol won't go any further. I even played with it a bit to try to jiggle it up, no avail.

I had CAA (I'm Canadian) here and they tried to use the interior door handle on the drivers door and it would still not unlock it!!!

So basically I'm stuck with a car that I cannot get into to jump start.

I read you can put power to the starter from underneath, but I'm outside and it's WINTER out there haha. Only option is to tow it somewhere reputable to perform this.

SOO that leaves me with this post. Any other ideas guys?? I'm stuck and need to get home haha.
