It just so happened that a little red blur was also hoping to catch this particular elevator up. Lily had been out and about as usual, generally exploring the city the best she could while getting distracted by every other shiny thing down the path, and getting to know her neighbors by running small errands for them for food money. It was a worthwhile arrangement, since it didn't require her to do anything other than what she usually did, and she was able to eat because of that. For unlike Bandersnatch, she couldn't just feed on dead things (or things that still lived, since it was Bandersnatch), and she had to find some way to support herself while the other Baskervilles were not around and about. Thankfully, she was resourceful

There was a very odd moment of dissonance when he saw Lily barrelling toward the elevator. All conscious thought stopped, all reason abandoned him, replaced with the prey's instinctive fear of the predator and the chilling certainty that he was going to die. Liam was frozen stiff.

Unfortunately this allowed Mr. Lunettes, the well-trained Pandora agent and ever-polite servant, to overwhelm the body of poor terrified Liam. And he knew exactly what to do in this situation
