How does Luna’s first day go?

Alright to start

Entering the store, Luna is met by a man well into his seventies. Face wrinkled and ancient, but eyes full of joy at having found a new employee.

Antonio: "Welcome! You must be Luna, come in come in, you are right on time! Though, as it is, this shift should be pretty quiet, the overnight usually is, you might get one or two orders though, you read the info right?" He asks as he looks Luna up and down.

Luna: "Yes sir, I learned how to run the oven, and turn it off, how to make the pizzas, and prep any ingredients needed" She declares, wanting to make a good first impression with her boss, doing her best to stand straight.

Antonio simply smiles, before showing Luna around the kitchen for a few minutes, and promptly at one A.M. Leaves for the night, telling Luna to lock up at 6 and leave the key under the third flower pot outside.

Luna settles in, sitting by the register and waits... and waits... and true to what Antonio said, the shift passes by quietly, the first two hours having no orders at all, leading Luna to spend her time lightly cleaning, exploring the store, and just waiting, and so, she nearly dropped a box in surprise when at 3:43 A.M. the phone rang, the noise being nearly deafening in the silent store.

Answering, she hears two people talking, before one, a girl, takes the time to put in their order for two pepperoni pizzas.

Putting in the order, Luna finally gets to work, stretching the dough, saucing, tossing on cheese, and finally pepperoni, she goes to put the pizzas into the ancient pizza oven when disaster strikes.

What happened now?
