First off, try removing the keycap and reinserting. Also, check for any popped rivets around the area on the underside.

How do I remove it without breaking anything*? Is there a stabilizer*?

Blunt knife or flathead screwdriver.

There's no stabilizer. When reinsering the key, it helps to hold up the front of the keyboard so that the buckling spring lies against the top of its housing.
