FRIEND COMPUTER and Glorious Citizen Team Leader! Safety Officer is jeopardizing the stability of this mission by making irresponsible/felonious accusations. He is also apparently preparing to discharge his weapon without regard to the safety of other team members. DOES NO ONE APPRECIATE A BAG OF CORN CHIPS???
Corn is holding a bag of "Corn Chips" and looking at both NONE and TEAM LEADER DOC LUV simultaneously.
There are no COMPUTER ports or access points in this corridor, and the Requistions Officer has closed the window.
But those "CORN CHIPS" are definintely a relic of Old Times and DEFINITELY TREASONOUS CONTRABAND.

Troubleshooting |

Get promptly drops the bag, then promptly drops Corn with a shot from his laser pistol
What do I roll?
He tricked me into touching contraband! I never would have committed treason on purpose.

None-R-None |

None drops his Corn chips and kicks 2R-L8 into the path of the grenade. As the grenade hits the bowl of the bot, None dives for the silvery handle. The water spout sends the grenade into the air. None spins with his back to the floor, and his gun firing. All the while, he hopes to ignite the explosive over and away from them.

Trap tsks. "When a teammate goes awry
His brains must surely fry
Grenades cannot sing
Computer lovers sing!
AND WE MURDER THOSE TRAITORS HARD!"He shoots Corn in the noggin.
IMAGINE THIS IN SLOW MOTION.
Trap raises his laser gun. Corn looks up, dripping wet. 2R-L8 is undulating, near the ground, "face" down, groaning softly.
The laser blast vaporises Corn's head into a chunky mist. As the spray of bone, hair, and bright red blood spread out in a cloud of hot death, the grenade finally explodes, lighting up the end of the hallway in a soft white-blue glow of destruction.
There is a tremor in the corridor, but everyone manages to keep on their feet. Corn's body stands for an awkardly long time before collapsing in a heap.
Strange small crinkly, sealed bags with strange writing spill out of Corn's shoulder satchel. (https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2170/3719/products/Andy_s_Hot_Fries_3_oz _grande.png?v=1500232884)
2R-L8 emits a final "GUuuuuuuuhhhhhhh...." before returning to an "at ready" position, floating in the air

Troubleshooting |

Get quickly scoops up the corn chips with his bush broom and dumps them into a nearby incinerator, dodging away from the flames that are enlarged by the excessive oil content.
Thank you, friend None, for your quick thinking. You saved all of us. says Get, But you should not have endangered Computer property like that. The Scrub-Bot is more valuable than any of us. Had he been damaged, I would have had to execute you for misuse of a bot...but thank you.

Paranoid Troubleshooter |

Dudley exits the local restroom facility with a perplexed look on his face. He's zipping up his uniform to cover the Warbot t-shirt. he doesn't notice the toilet paper stuck to his boot.
"Did I hear an explosion?" He blinks at the sight of Corn's headless body. "Uh...so he was a traitor then? Figures."

Troubleshooting |

He was talking a lot about "deals." Friend computer provides all we need, so everything is a "deal." I can only imagine he was discussing treason.

An old Maintenance Bot on big, heavy treads rolls up and wraps a cable around the headless corpse, and drags it away, leaving a streaking trail of crimson on the linoleum.
The gated window opens, and the Requisitions Officer says "You guys still here? My memo from HPD says you're on a time-sensitive return for this gear. LATE RETURNS ARE TREASON. "
He looks at his handheld device.... then looks up.
"TRAP-R-JON-1? 'Commendation for Valor in the Fact of High Treason and Murderous Intent.' That just came through on the service wire for this detail. Everyone on this team is getting a 100 credit reward for an assist in the termination of a known traitor."
"Congratulations, Citizens. All glory to the great Computer whose benevolence protects us all!"
He turns to leave...
Everyone thinks they here him mumble "100 credits? Nice. I take bribes...."

Troubleshooting |

Having cleaned up all the treason, I salute Doc. Ready to be escorted to our mission location, sir!

Doc LUV |

Doc quickly pulls himself off the ground, thankfully he is currently without a hygiene officer for a little bit so he has enough time to dust off his uniform. "Let this be a lesson, treason is everywhere. We must be ever vigilant. Now, let us hurry so as to make up for the time this traitor cost us." Doc will start moving towards the closest elevator to the level they need and continue to encourage the rest of the team to move along with.

None approximates direct eye to eye contact with Get. Thank you friend Get for your appreciative castigation for my unwise quick THINKING! None thoroughly checks out the bot to insure it is not damaged in anyway.
None follows the rest to the elevator, waiting for the team leader to press a button.

THE LIGHTS IN THE ELEVATOR FLICKER AND A MECHANICAL HUM VIBRATES THE METAL BOX. EVERYONE INSIDE FEELS QUEASY.
THE ELEVATOR DOORS CLOSE, AND IT BEGINS THE SLOW DESCENT....
a crackling robotic voice says "NEXT STOP.... SUB-BASEMENT45"
A JOLT, and the door opens.
You see a room full of GREEN clones in lab cotas, working at strange stations. They all turn and look at you.
"nEXT STOP... SUB-BASEMENT 44"

Troubleshooting |

Scrub-bot and I will enter the unit first, clear it with the door closed, then open the door and let you all in to clean.

Troubleshooting |

Ah, but team leader wanted me to go first. You’re an important part of the unit cohesion.

Doc LUV |

"Get will enter first. Then, Dudley, as he must record everything and communicate back to us what is going on; None, in case their are explosives that must be handled; Charles, because he has the rifle; and then the scrub-bot. The rest of us will make sure no vile mutants or commies try to ambush us from behind. We have already dealt with one traitor, let us avoid being caught by surprise again."

Troubleshooting |

Far be it for me to go against the team leader, but the Computer specifically said that I must accompany the Scrub-bot. Perhaps you misspoke instead of directly contradicting the wishes of the Computer? Clearly you meant that myself and friend Robot will enter the room together before opening the room to the rest of the group.

Doc LUV |

Doc growls at Get in frustration, never losing the big fecal matter consuming smile he had practiced for so long."Friend Computer said you would interface with friend scrub-bot, and you will. But, friend computer did not say that we should put friend scrub-bot in danger of scuffing his shiny chrome handle if it is not necessary to the mission at hand."
Doc pulls his laser pistol and suddenly looks for all the world like a bad Italian James Bond ripoff.
"Now let's get in there and vape some vermin."

Can you describe the scene/environment friend computer?
BUT OF COURSE:
It is a long hallway, receding into shadow darkness at the end.
Flourescent lights flicker, illuminating the corridor in a sickly, sparse blue light.
There are multiple doors equidistant at 8 ft apart down the hallway. Each one has a numbered placard on it, and a pull handle, with a small key lock under.
The floor is black and white linoleum tile, and in most areas covered in a sticky ooze. Dead insects sit in the ichor.
The elevator doors are rusted over, as they close behind you.
It smells like cabbage.
there is a constant audible humming.
occasionally a loud THUMP THUMP THUMP comes from the ducts you assume are in the ceiling, which is concrete, with two small open vents... that you can see. Dust infrequently drops from these holes, as does a green fume.

Troubleshooting |

GET approaches the first door and stands next to it. Commander, do you have the key?
