Bummer.
May have to take off the gallery cap. Try prying it off on each side with a small screwdriver..

Because you don't have to. Pull off the cap.

It is pulled off. All I have is a tube with holes in it, which I am able to stick a pen straight through (well, i was able to) with a plug stuck in it.

Now be careful with those pins 
Consider working over a towel or something to keep them from disappearing.

I did it. I cannot believe it. I did it. Just fiddling, holding it all teh wrong way, then a quick twist of the wrench, and it turned. Ohhh, that is amazing. What a rush. Jeez. And it's that easy. Oh, yeah!!

You should be able to just yank the plug out. You'll kill all the springs but it's better than nothing.
Some things may be pick proof, but everything can be bypassed....
