Two courses of action.

  1. You detain and tie up the Ramirez already inside, just in case. Then you let the Ramirez outside in and do the same. You proceed trying to figure out what's going on. Who is the real one? Problem with this scenario is now you 100% have the fake one inside with you.

  2. You detain and tie up the Ramirez already inside, just in case. You leave the one outside to die. Unethical, but now there's only a 50/50 chance the one inside with you is the fake one.

Alternate option if you're feeling really unethical is you just instantly kill the one already inside and also leave the one outside to die. Technically the safest option.

Kick out the inside Ramirez and let them fight to the death. The winner is the fake one.

Won't someone please consider a time travel option??

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 7 points 10 months ago

No the Cosmonaut skeleton told me that's dumb.

And if he floats, he's also a witch.

You look yourself at the mirror: You are Ramirez

[–] Rhoeri@lemmy.world 20 points 10 months ago
[–] Fenrir@lemmings.world 3 points 10 months ago

No, Ramirez, you are the demons

[–] Hideakikarate@sh.itjust.works 48 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Everyone knows the correct answer is the alternate option, but the first one makes the initial drama and sets up the opportunity for a movie to happen in the first place.

Coming soon to theaters: Among Us

[–] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 26 points 10 months ago (3 children)

I hate how fucking plausible this joke is, if this actually happens I'm holding you personally accountable

[–] swab148@lemm.ee 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Don't worry, I've only pitched it to Warner Bros.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

There it goes on the shelf, next to Batgirl.

[–] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

Was there ever any merit to that claim that you could post elaborate plots on some subr*dt and make it harder for movie studios to make those exact films?

I hear that the movie is very SUSpenseful

[–] grue@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I vote to eject you for that pun.

Narrator: From the brilliant minds that mildly regret they brought you "The Emoji Movie."

"Guys wait, it's not me!" (Gets spaced and the rest of the cast grimaces and goes "OOOooo...😬")

(Awkward pause)

"...I'm okay!"

Narrator: "Comes an adventure..."

"Guys I think Randy's kinda sus."

"Why's that?"

(Randy farts)

Randy: "Wasn't me...? Hehe?"

Narrator: "...about knowing who you can trust..."

"One of us is an imposter , if we don't find out who it is we're all doomed!"

"What are we supposed to do we don't even have hands!"

Narrator: "...and who's kinda sus..."

(Body found)

Narrator: "Starring...Chris Pratt..."

"Ewww....who knew we had like...one bone?"

Narrator: "...Wanda Sykes..."

"Gary! Are you for real right now?!"

"I STRESS EAT FOR SELF-CARE WHEN I'M HUNGRY OKAY?!"

Narrator: "...Dwayne The Rock Johnson..."

"Guys...heh...come on..(smile twinkle)."

Narrator: "Danny DeVito..."

"It could be any one of us, but DEFINITELY not me I was doing the beep boop thingy with the doodad right over here...IT WAS DEFINITELY MEGAN."

Narrator: "...And John Cena..."

"You didn't see me do anything...you didn't see nothin!"

"...Does that work better with hands?"

"...yeah..."

NARRATOR: " ...As "Probably not the Imposter"...this summer...."

That sounds like a cash grab. ...I would watch the hell out of it.

[–] Robust_Mirror@aussie.zone 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Of course it is. Until Ramirez is your child.

[–] Brickhead92@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

But what they didn't tell you is... You're a virgin!

[–] ChillPenguin@lemmy.world 44 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Oh I've seen this one.

You tie them both up. Set them down on a couch next to each other. Get each of their blood into a dish. Then you take a flame thrower, heat up some metal and apply it to each dish of blood. Easy.

[–] SereneSadie@lemmy.myserv.one 21 points 10 months ago

And then your buddy with the working flamethrower stands there like a total moron and gets killed for it.

[–] thefluffiest@feddit.nl 22 points 10 months ago

Or you’re in the Trump regime and deport both Ramirez’

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 21 points 10 months ago (1 children)

If the non-ramirez entity has any sort of offensive powers, trying to kill or restrain it might yield a worse outcome. Like, you try to tie up the one inside and it decides the cat is out of the bag, so it bursts out of its skin suit and strangles you.

[–] jrs100000@lemmy.world 19 points 10 months ago

If theres one thing I know about aliens, its that the whole ship needs to burn in orbit. Its the only way to be sure.

[–] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 15 points 10 months ago

You obviously remove the Ramirez with the goatee.

[–] tyler@programming.dev 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

No you put both of them outside and then try to resolve it. Then no matter what happens the station is still ok. They both have comms, nothing is gained by letting either in.

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Put Ramirez out in space with his mysterious doppelganger? Quite a dick move!

[–] tyler@programming.dev 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

There’s a lot more room in space than in the station. You could easily put them a quarter mile apart out there, while in the station you could be killed in seconds.

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

If the station's that big, there's definitely room to keep Ramirez confined without resorting to sending him out into space.

[–] tyler@programming.dev 1 points 10 months ago

Huh? No I said in space you can put them that far apart. You aren’t putting them that far apart inside. And inside you either have to get in close proximity to both, increasing your chances of disaster, or you have to let them wander the space station unaccompanied.

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Kill them both. I'm actually Ramirez. The creatures don't understand names.

[–] ZkhqrD5o@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Blow the inside-Ramirez out the airlock, give the outside one some company. - The good ending. :)
