I thought I could be sneaky and put a mousetrap bomb in a mindslave, then send them running to medbay to have it removed.
Unfortunately, I tested it on a monkey, and the bomb doesn't go off when you take it out. It doesn't help that the mousetrap keeps getting disarmed and rearmed when they're grabbed, but even when the bomb came out armed, it didn't detonate. I did this with a fire fighting grenade so I wouldn't get in trouble, but I assume pipe bombs will have the same problem.
What I haven't tested yet is proximity bombs. If they don't trigger inside people then this might not be needed. Although snapping surgeons with hidden mousetraps would still be funny!
