Locksmith to pop the door, that is about your only option. You could do a search for broken hood cable it is possible to open the hood from the outside

Jumper cables from spare battery or jumper3box to starter motor and frame/ ground. Takes just minutes

When I had that same problem I applied power through the trailer light cord and then the fob worked
