Driver’s seat stuck in full forward position, won’t move C70 1998

Hi all – I have a problem with the drivers seat in my '98 C70. It’s stuck in the fully forward position after a rear passenger got out. None of the switch(es) work...the lever, the red loop, or any of the buttons.

First step was to take the power seat switches from the passenger side and try using them to see if that was the issue. Still didn't move. And the driver power seat switches operate when plugged into the passenger seat, so that can be eliminated as the potential problem.

When I lift the lever or pull the red loop to move the seat forward, there is a distinct "click" from under the seat, like it's trying to move something.

Can't drive anywhere...unless I fast-forward my plans to get my 4-year-old son driving a stick. What could the problem be? And until I figure it out, is there any way to move that doggone seat?
