[The moment he's close enough, Alex grabs the edge of the hole and hoists himself up into the space between the floors. Once there, he reaches over to where the ceiling for the next room over should be and shifts the probability a small spot from 'stable' to 'crumbling,' enough that he can easily punch a hole through. Pressing his face to the plaster, he doesn't like what he sees.]
Camera, and it's on. I'm going to try disabling it.
[Making plaster crumble is easy. Taking out a camera, a little more difficult, especially when using his powers any makes his head throb. But there are lots of ways cameras can malfunction. Mice can nibble on wires, solder points can corrode, motors can get stuck. He has no way of knowing if the camera feed is being constantly monitored or merely recorded. He has to assume the first. For all he knows, the jet landing outside is Sinister coming back to secure his lab. Alex could just drop in and never mind the camera, but he doesn't want any video of any of them getting back to Sinister.
So he focuses on pushing all of the probabilities of the camera to catastrophic failure.]
