Ok, no matter what, Foxy Roxy trashes the challenge. With respect to
Skwaaaark's Anti-Social trait, is the alarm triggered despite the
challenge
being trashed, or is a die roll required?

What happens if you have the choice between social and another skill ??
I have Skwaaaaaark! and Sam the Sleuth in my team and we are face to
face with Runners on Retainers (Sleaze: social 2 OR streetwise 2). I
need to sleaze only one requirement. Can I choose to sleaze streetwise
or does Skwaaaaaark automatically triggers the alarm ??
