Unhappy New Orchid Dying?

My boyfriend bought me an orchid a few days ago. It's a Colm wildcat. The day I got it it was 20 degrees outside and went in and out of the cold several times. We got home and put it under light right away. But a few hours later a flower fell off. We left it alone. The next day we watered it correctly, left it in the light. That night we put it in a more humid enviornment. Now the bottom flower are loosing their color, shriveling up, and falling off. the roots are coming out the bottom so i think it just needs to be re-potted. But is there something else we're doing wrong that's making them fall off? I don't want my orchid to die.
