Description

This poor guy is truly a sight to stir even the coldest of hearts. Not only because he's a scientist (and thus a severely underpaid, highly qualified and much abused skilled labourer) but also because for some reason he is covered in insects and an odd array of cables.

Much like everything else in this department he seems to suffer from drastic malfunction.

He's busily trying to rid himself of some of his more obnoxious "passengers". You get the jump on him.

Successful Attack(s):

Missed Attack(s):

• All these cables were just a catastrophe waiting to happen. And sure enough, he trips himself up and lands on his bum.
