Default Fail: Locked keys inside my trunk

I accidently locked my keys inside my trunk... was a tiring night for me and i just shut the trunk with my keys... anyway, i still have the master key though. looks like the stock alarm will cry though if i want to force open, which is something i want to avoid right now because its too quiet at night now and i dont wanna wake the neighbors up calling cops etc. if i insert the keys at the trunk, will the car cry?

the car was already locked when i used the power trunk to pop. then slammed the trunk with the keys in. the IS300 cries if i insert my key in the drivers door, thats something i know. but the trunk hole i am not sure if it will cry or not. any IS owners awake?

edit: i would just pop the trunk real quick, then grab the keys and stop the crying but im not even sure if its really in there. lol... so tired. prolly just gonna go sleep if no one's awake to help me out

lol be fast like a ninja. or if you didn't need the car till morning, wait?

I did the same thing last weekend except I was about an hour and a half away from home and had to call AAA. Dude stuck an airbladder in my drivers door, inflated it and used a flexible rubber coated metal rod to open the door lock so he could pop the trunk. I was quite embarrassed, never that absent minded.

My friend put her purse in her trunk (07 nissan sentra) and when she shut the trunk it wouldn't close for some reason.
We tried for like 15 minutes to close the trunk but it wouldn't... Then we took the purse out and it closed!!! We were like WTF..!?!
Then we realized the key was in her purse!! Awesome feature!! Too bad our LEXUS doesn't have this... But yeah.. it's new technology..
