<strong>OOC:  Posting to jump-start the plot again.<br/></strong><br/><br/>As Roger attempts to force the clasps of the briefcase, his failure is met with a thin, greasy smoke seeping out of the case.  A moment later, the briefcase flops open, revealing a blackened, foul smelling mess, some of which you can recognize as being paper.  Whatever Carson had inside the briefcase, he obviouslyu didn't want anyone else to discover it.
