Look for an access hatch.
(4+1) After being pumped through a series of pipes, you are ejected into a large, open room full of organic garbage.

Begin fixing the droids.

Call fire crew and get a fire extinguisher.
(5) A quick application of chemical extinguisher and the fire is out. You examine the damage - it is localized to one fryer, which seems functional.
