Seth practically feels Johnny's surging panic - in fact he does feel it, but that doesn't make sense when he's not lucid. As soon as he sees that the door is gone, the anxiety solidifies into a lump of ice in the pit of his stomach.
He has the opposite reaction of Johnny, just standing there, watching him rage and panic. Perhaps because he's always been trapped. Nothing's changed for him.
But what about Johnny? He feels a sudden protectiveness of him, now he's so helpless while Seth is calm. Well, not calm, exactly. Not focused, either. But perhaps more numb. Or perhaps he simply doesn't fear circumstances all that much. Not for himself, anyway. But he needs to help Johnny, he can't let him be trapped here as well. What if they do the same thing to him?
"Come on," he echoes Johnny's words, reaching to take his hand and tug him along. He does hold onto it though, knowing that this won't work if he doesn't. He doesn't stop to consider how he knows that. And then he simply walks through the wall where the door was, helping Johnny do the same. Though whether what they find will be anything better than what they left, he can't tell.
