30 minutes? You need to know when to give up buddy. It's especially fucking rude on an airplane where there are lots of people and limited bathrooms. And security concerns...
That said, when you open the door and you see the dude is actually sitting on the can with his pants down - and not up to something nefarious - maybe you don't drag him out?
Then we have the cops, need I say more?
Jeez, assholes all around.

There should be a timer and if you take too long the "sonic running out of air" music should start playing.
Now there's a comment I can hear!
Do you die if you don't leave the toilet before the music stops? Is your seat your last save checkpoint, or do you respawn right back at the airport?
The main lights shut off until the door is opened, and a display with the word ‘altitude’ starts counting down
Lol
