*Brooks:* "... Autopsy report: April 19 2448, subject is... Sorry, attending examiner LaMarr Brooks, staff EMT for Dogberry HK-409 cargo depot. Haven't done one of these in a while. Subject is... Identified as, ah, Frank Tannenbaum, staff supervisor for Dogberry HK-409 cargo depot..."

"The body is that of a well-developed male with, ah, extensive traumatic injuries to the hands and periorbital regions. Livor mortis is fixed and consistent with the supine position, rigor mortis is present in the facial musculature and upper extremities. Estimated time of death is... Strike that, observed time of death is approximately 10 minutes prior to exam."

"Bilateral upper extremities show complete crush injuries to both hands, with near-total destruction of skeletal structure and associated soft tissue. Injuries are consistent with mechanical compression. Profuse haemorrhage noted at the sites of injury, with arterial transection suspected. No defensive wounds."

"Ocular region displays substantial bilateral periorbital ecchymoses consistent with blunt-force trauma. Conjunctival haemorrhages present with some corneal abrasions, but globes remain intact. Examiner notes that... Shortly prior to death, the decedent demanded that this examiner assist him with, ah, gouging out his eyes..."

"Internal examination reveals no abnormalities inconsistent with subject's medical history, save for marked pallor of internal organs consistent with acute blood loss. Blood spectroscopy shows no abnorm... Mostly no abnormalities, save for extremely elevated cortisol. That can't be right... Rapid tox panel shows... _Oh my god, Frank..._ Ah. Sorry. Rapid tox panel suggests heavy neoamphetamine abuse... Examiner notes consistent changes in the decedent's behavior in days prior to death."

"Opinion... Cause of death is exsanguination due to bilateral traumatic amputation of hands. Manner of death is suicide... Uh, in the context of acute neoamphetamine-induced psychosis. The decedent sustained catastrophic crush injuries to both hands, apparently self-inflicted via the cargo bay scissor lift, followed by attempts at, ah, self-enucleation. Absence of defensive wounds suggests deliberate self-harm, as do the examiner's, ah, personal observations of the decedent immediately prior to death. Toxicology findings confirm--"

*Hayes:* "Hey Brooks, there's something seriously wrong with-- Oh jesus what the fuck? Is he... Oh my god what happened?"

*Brooks:* "Oh, erm... Y-yeah, sorry, it seems there was, erm... I just went in the cargo bay looking for Lundy and then, ah, I just found him by the scissor lift with his, ah..."

*Hayes:* "Oh my god his fucking hands!!"

*Brooks:* "... Ah, and, ah, he... Ah, w-well, ah, by, by that point he'd lost q-quite a lot of blood, you see, but, ah..."

*Hayes:* "... Ohhhhh shit, ohhh no no no no fucking way. No fucking way, man!"

*Brooks:* "Look, erm, the thing is... I think he might have, ah... Ah, I mean, there's evidence that seems to--"

*Hayes:* "He fucking snapped, dude, ohhh _shit_ man I fucking knew it! I fucking told you all he was gonna fucking kill us! I fucking told you back in the mess hall when I found his little fucking manifesto, man! This, right here, this is what he was talking about! _I fucking told you!!_"

*Brooks:* "W-what do you mean?"

*Hayes:* "I... Look. Do you feel that?... That's the fucking thrusters. They've been running all morning. Listen. A few hours ago, Frank reprogrammed the positioning thrusters to put the hab on a collision course with the external propellant tanks."

*Brooks:* "... Sorry, he _what_!?"

*Hayes:* "And then he fucking locked us out of Ops. Revoked permissions from everyone except Admin. Then he fucking offed himself so now there _isn't_ any Admin! Do you understand? Do you understand what's happening, man? We are going to fucking die!"

*Brooks:* "... Ah... W-wait... Oh my god. _Oh my god..._"

[They both are heard quickly leaving the medbay.]
