You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Ok. I suspect that the East Coast Adamas are incommunicado now, so Boomer, I'll leave it to you: do you want to wait for possible interrupts, or shall I just get rolling?

Holy crap, Boomer hit something.

Given one of the possible outcomes of this Crisis card is "destroy a raptor and send the current player to Sickbay" I'm curious as to just how she did it too.
