Paranoia Episode II: The Clone Bores

[Captain K.]

I'll get your next clones warmed up while you decide what to do.  >:)

[Irius]

Burg took a quick look around and decided that, although the button was shiny, it was excessiely so, and therefore probably communist and therefore bad for his health, and so he thought of a reason to leave the room.

"Friend Leader, I'll stand guard outside the door, to let all know that in here, the business of Friend computer is being done."

And with that, Burg left, to stand guard outside the room of course.

[Trunkyboy]

Ded frowns.  Friend Burg couldn't be expected to guard against commies all by himself!  As he also heads toward the door he calls over his shoulder, "Friend Leader, I trust your judgement in this matter.  I will help Friend Burg defend us against any Pinky activities."

[Zenthor]

John rubbed his chin.  "Well, we're here, and we have no evidence otherwise that this isn't a communist base... Hell, even the button's red.  Come on.  So, let's push the button and hope that it destroys this damn threat to Friend Computer."  He started to the button, but paused.  "No.  Friend Hal, I believe you should have the honor of helping Friend Computer in this way."  He nodded for him to go over and push the button.

[Captain K.]

*and the buck gets passed along*

[Halbarad]

Hal swallows, cautiously approaching the button. "Yes, sir," he says in a dejected tone, closing his eyes as he presses the button. 'I wonder if you remember if it hurts...'

[Irius]

Burg looked around.  Not much here, and something inside him was calling out for enlightenment with nary a font of wisdom to be found.  However, there was Ded, and an excuse.

"Friend Ded, I reckon that there may be more Communist Propaganda around here, and other such clues that'll tell us what we need to go.  So, I'm gonna go and reconnoiter and see what's what round these here parts.  You stay here and watch that door for them traitor commies!"

And with that, Burg wandered off into the hallways, looking and listening to the best of his ability for anything he could find.

[Captain K.]

Hal finds himself unable to push the button, due to the glass dome covering it.  There doesn't seem to be any catch or anything to release the dome.  It's sealed to the top of the table.

[Trunkyboy]

Ded starts whistling a popular anti-commie diddy as he watches for any commies and/or mutants.

[Zenthor]

John sighed.  "Yeah," he said, tapping the glass covering the button.  "There's  glass there.  Might be a good idea to uncover the button before trying to push it."  He walked over to where the glass dome would open.  "Here, I'll open it."  He placed his hand to flip open the glass, but paused.

"Ah, it may be boobytrapped.  Might be for the best to duck as soon as I flip it open.  When it's clear, you get up and push the button.  Okay?"  John nodded to Hal, then opened the dome.

And hit the deck.

[Captain K.]

And yet, John can find no way to open the glass dome.  It's completely solid, with no apparent trigger to open it.

[Halbarad]

Hal sighs. "It figures. If we're going to do this, we might as well do it all the way." Taking out his Big Frickin' Gun, Hal holds it over the glass button for a moment, before swinging it into the protective glass shield to smash the glass and press the button in one swift motion.

[Irius]

Burg wandered the halls, but apparently there was nothing worth noting in the area.  Somewhat dissapointed, he started heading back to the room.

[Trunkyboy]

Ded admires his shiny new laser, still unfired.  Maybe he should go seek commies and/or mutants on his own?  FC must surely trust them (what a honor!) if it hasn't given them further directions.

[Captain K.]

Ah, that's one way to use a BFG!

Hal smashes the glass successfully and presses the button swiftly.  He gets a cut on his index finger from the glass shards.

A portion of the wall slides away.  Revealed there is a monitor and a strange flat board with raised bumps.  The bumps have letters and numbers on them.
