Roddy didn't know, of course, that Dodger couldn't get in, and fully intended to try and let him in...in a moment. First he wanted to make sure he'd have an emergency exit, just in case things went south. He shifted to human and went over to the window, opening it just a few inches, a large enough opening for a rat, but not much else.
Shifting back to his rodent form, and satisfied that he'd scoped the place out sufficiently to make a grab for a few things and run, he decided to go let Dodger in.
Heading back to the fire escape window, he again shifted back to human, crouching so he couldn't be seen from outside, and carefully, quietly opening it.
He whispered, "Dodger, come on in," down to the boy below, before shifting back to his rodent form and returning to the study, oblivious to the fact that he couldn't be followed by his accomplice.
The first thing he did was crawl around behind the column of drawers in the desk, and attempt to squeeze under it. If it was possible, he would then attempt to climb up behind the drawers to get in them.
