UPDATE 1

Locksmith got car open in less than a minute... only charged me $60! I was so excited I jumped in and put my key in the ignition COMPLETELY FORGETTING what I have read about keys being HELD when the battery is dead. So now the car is unlocked but my key is in the ignition. Next step is to pop the frunk with the fuse box trick and get the battery changed out. Stay tuned...

Nice that you got the door open. Many youtube videos on how to open the trunk, it`s really easy with the fuse hack, all you need is a little power and it opens easy, if you don`t have a battery charger you can use an old battery with booster cables, GL.
