(front porch)
The front porch is in an alcove, sheltered from the weather by the walls and
overhanging roof. A yellowish electric light hangs near the open front door to
the east, giving you a dim view of the driveway to the south and the front yard
behind a gate to the north.
The gate is closed. A door bell glows at you, almost daring you to ring it.

You don't have the right key.

(entry)
Here in the entry is a small Shinto shrine, with a hanging scroll and an

Linder says, "Don't leave yet. We're just getting started."
The "You'd have to be more clever ..." response is the default (see V-UNLOCK) when trying to unlock something that isn't a container or a door. But when you're outside, or when Mr. Linder is follow you, PRE-UNLOCK handles every attempt at unlocking anything:
<ROUTINE PRE-UNLOCK ()
<COND (<DOBJ? CLOCK>
<COND (<IN? ,CLOCK-KEY ,WINNER> <RFALSE>)
(T <TELL "You don't have the right key." CR>)>)

(<OUTSIDE? ,HERE>
<COND (<IN? ,PHONG-KEYS ,WINNER> <RFALSE>)

I think it would be sensible to check for CONTBIT and DOORBIT in PRE-UNLOCK as well.
