With the dawn of the third day of the research, Zombie finally realized something.
Cranberry clearly didn't know what a capture target role really was, and she took its name extremely literally.
She thought it meant that Zombie's role was to be the opposite of hot potato - that everyone involved would want to physically abduct him to gain some unknown advantages during the global event.

And all of that was very clearly taking a toll on her.
Never seen before dark bags appeared under her eyes and she was snapping at others way more than she usually did.
It seemed that the only way for her to return to normal was to find a method to keep her servant safe...
...or to let her know what the capture target role actually was...
