You scuttle. It does nothing to alleviate the growing worry, however!

After all, he could be here any minute!

He is going to want your monies!

You don't have any monies! You are a crab! Scuttle Scuttle.

He will do it anyway! He is a tax collector! He wants all the monies, even the monies that aren't there!

See if he does indeed want your monies. If he does, maul him in the gonads and scuttle away with all possible haste.

Request that he show you a signed A-38 B.

Then tell him to follow proper protocols properly, and question him about his identity for 40 minutes, before writing LIAR on his face and telling him to go see the head of Management Services. Then Scuttle.

Snap off one of your claws, throw it at him, and scuttle away. It will be difficult for a while, but you'll regenerate it.

He appears over the lump!

Oh no, this man is really scary!

You cannot request anything, you can't speak! Your throat was damaged last month in an unfortunate boating accident.

Be helpful to end this as quickly as possible. Do not do bullshit. You definitely do not want to hear "STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM!".

How deep is the water? He's in armor, so it would be hard for him to pursue you there.

Scuttle into it.

You scuttle into the water, hiding just offshore. He'll never get you here!

A man in red appears!

He says to the scary man.

Wait a minute, who's this?

The scary man responds.

You clack your claws. You don't really know how to say anything like this, but the man in red seems amused.

Ducking down into the water, you look around for anything that might be useful as currency.

You would have foamed, but you have plenty of water in your system at the moment, and it probably wouldn't have helped. Will have to wait until later.

But at least they can't chase you underwater, so you're completely safe for now!
