Search again for Kevlar Vest.

Lavarinth passes a shotgun to Milldawg then looks again for a Kevlar vest, this time succeeding.  (Roll of 9+2-1=10 vs. DC of 8)

Flyinghat accuses Milldawg of being the Thing while shaking his fist indignantly. (-1 Paranoia to Self; +3 Paranoia to Milldawg)

Thalraxal inspects Saint_Kerrigan but just can't get him to stop squirming so his inspection to determine whether or not he is the Thing is inconclusive.  (5-1=4 vs. 8-2=6)

Milldawg is now literally huddled in the corner possibly in a pool of his own waste in fear of everyone around him.  He gets up to look for a knife but trips in his crack-addled state and falls over on his face losing 1 HP.  (Roll of 7-10=-3 vs. DC of 3)

Saint_Kerrigan tries again to get that Kevlar but just can't seem to figure out where Lavarinth found his Kevlar vest.  (Roll of 4 -2 vs. DC of 8)

WedgeAntilles switches on his flashlight and quickly finds a loaded pistol with 2 clips inside it. (12-5+2=9 vs. DC of 6)

Tramau has another panic attack and hyperventilates before passing out in the radio room.

AA7Dragoon decides it's high time to find that shotgun, but just can't seem to find one lying around.  (6-4+2+2=6 vs. DC of 8)

Mucky searches for one of the last remaining flashlights and easily finds one.  (9-2=7 vs. DC of 2)

Flyinghat is barely finished accusing, however, when THE THING strikes and attempts to infect him!

They killed the Doctor!  Now what!?

I'm sick of not being able to find anything!  I feel useless!

Search for knife
I have seen the Desler.  I have tasted of his milk and honey.

So now there are two Things. Someone was infected. I'm almost positive Milldawg was the one who got infected. His paranoia is so incredibly high that it would destroy his defense roll, thus making him easy prey. FlyingHat is obviously responsible for this, but the attempted infection on him proves that he's still clean.

I have no idea who the original Thing could be. But... going with my instincts, I say it's time to put 'er down.

Attack Milldawg.

I'm sure someone will need this.

Mucky, you know Mildawg is our last healer, so if he's gone and he's not the Thing, we might be in trouble.

"Dear God! The doctor's dead! Okay, now I really need a weapon..."

Search for pistol.

"However, if someone is willing to loan me a weapon, then I can get going with creating the Thing DNA so we can get the hell out of here!"

"And Lav, why do you think Tramau is the Thing? He's been fixin' the radio to get us out of here."

Wait, how can there be two Things if it failed to infect the first time?  Didn't it just attack twice?  And if so, why did it have full life again? ???

I shall answer your question in full when the game is over but your fellow players may be able to answer it themselves.

It had to have been on the day before. Infections aren't shown if they're successful.
