Savoir Faire or Diplomacy is probably the most polite, but observation or fast talk would work as well.

3d6 <= 12
1 + 3 + 1 = 5 ... success by 7! That's pretty good, the odds of Luck improving on that are slim, so I'll let it stand.
And the onlookers roll a 12 vs. their effective skill of 14. Daymar eludes their attempt to make him swallow!

*******************************************

The officers post a list of "debriefings" where each spacer will be interrogated about their whereabouts at the time of the fire and generally checked for suspicious behavior. Daymar will be debriefed sunday afternoon (tomorrow),a and Hua monday morning (two days from now)

The rest of saturday work shift is spent working hard. Daymar and Pothi work hard on the damaged plasma emmiter, cleaning it out, analyzing if parts need to be replaced or just cleaned in chemical baths, and acting accordingly. (its been properly sealed earlier)

Hua and Botha are in one of the food storage rooms most the day with a few dozen other transportation techs, trying to see how much of the food can be salvaged, and cleaning it off. The work is dull, and with all the ash everywhere, and leaves them filthy afterwards.

Chuvi Teezor, the roommate with the pills, will be working in the same room separating ashes and food.
