Keepaway

by Taki

The code phrase was "Racquetball!" for when I warn everyone (via comms) to duck!
 
But not everyone listened.
 
Taki has the diorama and is using it to start a game of "keep away" that will hopefully distract any Mesmerized City Workers who are not already asleep. She plans to carry it out past Moon Knight so that if necessary, he can take custody of the diorama for a short stretch.
 
The droid thingies won't fire their energy beams at the diorama. That's useful. But the mesmerized workers will fire sonic beams toward it.
 
Dr. O sends a hologram and tells his minions to destroy the diorama. He has a female partner dressed in yellow and white pseudo-Egyptian clothing and a cat mask. I try to determine if the diorama will explode or something, but all I get is confetti -- with words on it -- suffocating everyone.
 
I have to wait until Tesla Coil arrives and shuts off the remote cameras before I can tell the team: Loki went over the crossword puzzle clues and answers for me.
