I blink. Ok, I think I get it. I go over to the strange machine, worried I must have set off some sort of alarm system. I look the machine over, trying to figure out what I should do.

When you take hands off the man again the beeping stops.
The machine is completely alien to you.

I have no freaking idea what I should be doing. I look around the desk searching for a paper and a pen. Or maybe just a pen. Or any writing utensil for that matter.

"Shit," I curse to myself, before turning back to the man. "Can you try to mime what happened to you? There's not a pen in sight."

The man pauses, then points to the machine and then to his chest, then mimes pulling something away from his body, then explosive moments, then he puts an invisible gun to his head and goes limp. Then he mimes putting a key in a lock.

I watch, trying to remain objective, though it's difficult. It sounds like this man has been through the plot line of a Saw movie. A key? I pause. I have two keys. I pull them both out, showing them to him.

The man shakes his head.

I sigh, putting them back into my pocket. "Are you lethally wounded anywhere?"

Another shake answers you.

"Ok...that's good." I sigh again. "Alright, I'm not quite sure what that little machine on you does. Do you know?"

The man gives a highly sarcastic patronizing nod.

I pull the gun on him. "Hey, I'm trying to help you. But I don't have to stand for your attitude." I glare menacingly. I'm already under enough stress. I don't need to deal with an asshole.

The man gives you a withering look.

I continue to glare, not putting the gun down. "So. What exactly does that do?" I say, slightly jerking my head in the direction of the machines.
