Stanley can feel his mind weakening.

Re: Day 1: Flying in
"You're outta line, mister," Jeff replies, now convinced that Antal is a paranoid idiot. He glances back over at the wrecked airplane. "What's taking Kramer so long? Hey, Harry, why don't you go check on him while I keep an eye on this loony."

"Goddamn loony himself, telling me what to do.." Harry mutters to himself, while walking over to Kramer.
"Hey Stanley, any luck?"

Re: Day 1: Flying in
Looks like Antal held back talking out loud about these real or imagined wrongdoings against him for quite some time, and now the words flow out of him. "Or your corporate masters didn't tell you everything either, huh? Huh? Huh? You are just a cog in the machine, a small insignificant replaceable piece!"
Antal is now hyperventilating, flaying his arms around, then he steps forward, and pushes Jeff. Not strong, but still quite aggressively.
"We are stuck here, you and me, but at least I'm awakened, I see you for what you are, and I have no illusions any more, I will keep on fighting of course because what else can I do, but I know we are doomed!"
Harry walks over to the wreckage. Antal's mad monologue is still on... Stanley is inside the cockpit, huddled over the radio. Some lights are blinking, and the machine seems to be working. The State Trooper holds the headphones against his ear, and seems to be listening closely to a transmission. A few steps away from the airplane Harry notices a weird, unusual, out-of-place smell. His first thought is that it's fuel leakage or maybe smoke from the wreck. But then why is it so sweet, like burnt sugar?
Roll Listen!

Re: Day 1: Flying in
Harry notices that headphones only produce harsh, loud white noise. The State Trooper doesn't react to Harry's voice.

Re: Day 1: Flying in
Stanley realizes that he must be losing his mind, but he's not about to admit it.

Harry notices that Stanley is trembling.

Re: Day 1: Flying in
"Stanley, give me the headphones. Come on now, big guy. Easy does it.."
Harry looks rounds for Jeff. "Get your ass over here quick! There's something wrong with Stanley!"
Re: Day 1: Flying in
Jeff is glad for an excuse to get away from Antal. The guy is clearly a maniac. He turns away and heads for the airplane.
Re: Day 1: Flying in
Stanley does not respond, still struggling for control of his own mind.

Re: Day 1: Flying in
"Hey, I'm not finished with you yet! Don't run away, corporate slave!" Antal shouts as Jeff quickly walks over to the airplane wreck.
Jeff and Harry see the State Trooper huddled over the radio in the cockpit. Stanley is trembling and still holding on to the headphones. His face is turned away from you.

Re: Day 1: Flying in
Ignoring Antal, Jeff regards Kramer's condition in dismay. "Hey, trooper, don't you go flaking out on us, too." He reaches over and flicks the radio off then grabs him by the shoulder and pulls him around to see his face. "Snap out of it."

Re: Day 1: Flying in
The radio powers off and the noise stops. Jeff grabs the shaking Trooper. Stanley's eyes are rolled back, and his mouth is foaming... His facial muscles contract - is that a reaction to Jeff's voice?

Stanley continues his internal struggle.

Re: Day 1: Flying in
"Ok Stanley. I'll just take these from you." Harry carefully tries to remove the headphones. He also tries to take the shotgun & sidearm.
Re: Day 1: Flying in
"Jeez, looks like he's having some kind of seizure," Jeff says. "We should carry him out and lie him on his side on the ground so he doesn't swallow his tongue. And keep talking to him."
The company sent him on a first aid course only a decade ago so he knows what he's talking about.
"Maybe loosen his clothing, too," he adds, babbling now. "Harry, you might have to give him the kiss of life if he stops breathing."

Re: Day 1: Flying in
"What?!? You expect me to start french-kissing Kramer now? Are you out of your mind?" Harry blusters. "No offense Stanley" he says, realising he's being insensitive, given the circumstances.
"Antal! We need your help here."

Re: Day 1: Flying in
CON 60 roll for Stanley
[dice]0[/dice]
The investigators haul out Stanley's heavy body out of the cockpit and lie him on his side. In this position, the convulsions start slowing down, and, it looks like that Jeff was right.
Antal comes closer, but stops a few steps away. "Stop ordering me around! I don't care about this pig," he continues his anti-establishment slurring. Then he notices the foam around Stanley's mouth. "What the fuck, man? Is he possessed?" He starts backing off. "No, no,
no, no, no..."

Re: Day 1: Flying in
Stanley finally comes to his senses. "Th...thank you..." he manages.
