"The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices - to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill and suspicion can destroy, and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all its own - for the children and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is that these things cannot be confined to The Twilight Zone." - Rod Sterling

A quiet development where petty neighborhood squabbles hide darker motives.

To learn more about how Fiasco is played check out our primer episode.

The characters for this game:

Gladys Marlow (Ken Breese) - A septuagenarian with a knack for electronics repair.

Ronald 'Ron' Matthews (Patrick Cartelli) - The son of Gladys Marlow, he hasn't any job prospects, but takes good care of his mother.

Quincy Marmot (John Holt) - A retiree with a nose for everyone else's business.

The grid for this game:

Between Ken and Patrick: Family - Caregiver and Invalid PLUS an Object, a Sweaty Baseball Cap with something tucked in the Brim.

Between Patrick and John: Home Owner's Association - Co-Authors of the Revised Garbage Policy PLUS a Need - to get out of an irritating commitment to a neighbor.

Between John and Ken: The Plan - Minion and Accidental Observer PLUS a Location - The Tricked out Basement Home-Theatre.

The TILT:

Failure - A tiny Mistake Leads to Ruin

Paranoia - Somebody is Watching, Waiting for their moment.
