If he loses the contest he's likely to accede to your request for access. If he wins the contest he only gets a boon -- you can ignore it (and his dislike of the RPA will grow) or accept it and depart (which will make accomplishing the mission harder). Or you could escalate -- roughing him up, or shooting him! (Neither of those are advisable -- but they are technically options).<br/><br/>Although he's challenged the group, we all know what happens when three people start trying to convince someone all at once -- it rarely works (unless intimidation is the goal). For social contests it is best to let one character be the "lead actor." In physical/gun contests there's no need to hold back, everyone gets to do things.<br/><br/>Dupond could get a glance at the body as a support action -- but actually getting his Doctor training a chance to work is going to take more time, and is best done outside of a contest.<br/><br/>If Dupond assures Lutzow he's a doctor and just wants to see the body (Social + Confident Doctor) he's likely to make more head-way (and possibly improve Lutzow's attitudes towards the RPA).
