Murphy's Law

(You can do the most damage from inside the organization.)

Well, at least you aren't being personally named on national television as one of their accomplices, and forced to help them.

Oh, hey. The broadcast faded. But instead of your show going back on, you get a news report.

"This is a special news bulletin on the activities of the terrorist organization EXPLODE. We will be bringing you round-the-clock coverage of any important information that could help you survive this attack.

First of all, authorities have identified one Murphy S. Law as a possible member of the organization. They have advised stopping him - with deadly force if necessary - in order to prevent him from assisting EXPLODE in their nefarious plans."

Well, that could be a problem. You look outside and see an angry mob gathering, no doubt to stop you from joining up with EXPLODE. This could be a problem... you'll need some way to keep them out.

Your house is on fire

Well, it could be worse. Your house could be on fire.

Oh, look, now it is. The mob draws back - they don't want to risk the flames surrounding your house. So you're safe for the moment, aside from the part where your house is on fire.

Well, if you stay in here you'll get burned up by the fire, but if you go out there you'll face an angry mob out for your head. How could this possibly get any worse?
