Default Dead Battery Fun!

So I was an idiot and left a light on and drained the battery. I have the radio code, but is the alarm (immobilizer) code gonna kick my *** after I jump the car? Basically, other than entering the radio code, what will I need to do?

Thanks in advance,

Nothing.
Start the car.

Cool. I wasn't sure if I'd have issues with the immobilizer after opening the car with the key. I refuse to use logic when contemplating the immobilizer system and simply think of it as a big bad monster that will ruin my life whenever the car so much as burns out a bulb.

I'm only speaking from my own experience, but it's happenned to
me more than a few times, and each time after the jump,
there were zero consequences (except for a compromised batt).

MAYBE one time i had to input the radio code, but that's it.
