Good deal...that must have been a PITA!
If you hit the power lock button, does it look/feel like the actuator is trying to move? Or is it completely unresponsive.
The actuator should look like/similar to the below image. The circle highlights the child safety switch that is typically accessible on the edge of the door when opened. I would try to see if you can locate and move the white lever (indicated with the arrows below) to the unlock position; then try to manually unlock the door with the slider on the door panel.
If that all works you should then be able to open the door with either handle or by moving the rods inside.
