PLANESINKOMETER:
Die roll: +3
Cockpit <{..........O.....}=/ Tail (and exit!)
Robert: Orson glares at you in response to your request. He opens his mouth, likely to deny you permission when-
Max: -there goes the shark down onto his head, WHAMohwaityoufumbledit! The shark flops down onto his shoulder without much force. he's fine but startled, and steps forward-
Harvard: -only to slip on a banana peel you dropped, tumbling to the ground next to you as you also fall, causing you to completely miss-
Max: -the purse with the gun, which you kicked just as you brought the shark down on his head, and which goes flying off down the plane-
Robert: -passing over your head and just brushing the fingertips of Betty as she reaches out to catch it, maybe you could have grabbed it but you don't register that the Captain no longer has a gun trained on you in time to move-
Harvard: -only to fire as it slams into the bulkhead, sending a bullet randomly into the cuffs that hold you to the woman - and snapping the chain. Then it drops into the water with an innocent splash.
Wait, the water?
You all suddenly realize that the rising water level has reached you, just as a shudder goes through the sinking plane. The cart holding the woman is jarred out of its stable position and, no longer attached to anything, begins rolling down the plane toward where the water is deepest. Robert and Betty are up to their knees, Max is up to his ankles, Orson and Harvard, being on the ground, are up to the ears, and the cart is about to be up to its everything if somebody doesn't stop it.
Meanwhile, Captain Orson is already fumbling for his shotgun, which he dropped when he fell. He looks furious and uninterested in talking to anyone anymore. And the plane is starting to slip more rapidly into the water. You can all see the square of daylight ahead and above you - if you don't make it there soon, you'll be in some serious trouble.
Or, well, you already are in some serious trouble. You know what I mean.
