Why the fuck not?
Because we're not an utterly cruel monster. We're just a practical monster. The bansheeing of the foreman or whatever he was called was important because it shows a sense of justice to others. For stripping away the thoughts and independence of others the same happens to him.
These two scientists are very likely nowhere near as responsible as him. And also there's still the experiments to try and recover.

He was constantly reminded of the fact that they'll put him back in there, so he was to scared to help them.
Carl claimed that, to prevent him from telling anybody about this, they said that they'd take his wife and make her an H9 if he did anything or didn't work hard enough for them.
This is the guy who said he was protecting his wife. They all die.

So they should all die because of what he did? I'm not sure if you understand how little sense that makes.

They let it happen. They knew about and they did nothing. They don't get to live anymore.

It's possible that Carl was not the one who created that sign.  It might be there to mock or torment him, not something he placed to mock or torment the victim.

Seek input on what to do from TW, Diane, and the rainbow-haired girl.  We might be about to cross a moral event horizon here.  If even these three can see we're about to go too far, we need to back off.

Easier way: See if T.W. can discern lies. If she doesn't, fake it! Take aside a few of our rejects, ask them some more questions, saying this time, to insure they aren't lying, we'll have T.W do her mumbo jumbo. As they answer questions, she gives a magical flare, explodinates them, and we declare they were lying. THAT should motivate these geniuses to not be lying :>D

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Dead people manage to be pretty hard to motivate.
And also the others may well know that a thing is true, making them know we're lying.

Don't kill the scientists (unless Diane and TW insist), interrogqte them seperately.
The bansheeing of their former boss should have gotten the thought of lying out of them. In fact, let them have a closer look at that fatso.

In case the others have something to hide, have the banshee take Carl's soul out in front of everybody to 'entice' them.

Also, Kitten, I find this really entertaining and would love to introduce it to other forums. Can I?

Have TW probe Carl's mind to see if he lies about this.

Actually, that would probably make them more likely to lie. They don't want to end up like that, so they'll be willing to say anything to avoid that fate.

Tru dat. I still think we should let the majority away with zombification, and those that are particularly bad in terms of their implication get a final death and eaten, no chance of coming back through horde mutations.

What do we do?
Kill 'em. Fasties.
Perhaps leave out the two "innocent". Carl may not know about his wife. The other, we have no proof of.
Can't you check if they're lying or not?
That'd be too convenient.
The one thats saying he's smarters then the rest is a liar. He worked on mes since day one.
The scientist has pissed himself upon hearing that, and starts stuttering out excuses. Snowflake just smashes him into the ground. Or, well, snaps all load-baring bones in his body at once. Fortunately for him, death came quickly.

Carl has been taken to his "bitch". He instantly fell on his knees and tried to open the cage in a panic. They can't be opened by hand, it seems. he fumbles, pulls and scratches at the cage until his nails crack and bleed.
Please, no... he whimpers, before putting his head against the cage and bawling. He cries like a man who just lost everything in his life, and then?
He acts like one.
He gets up, slowly. and goes towards one of the elder scientists. He pushes him against the wall, and begins strangling the old man. It takes a long while.
The head scientist struggles and gasps at first, attempting to push him away. he clutches at the constricting hands, but can't pull them away. Slowly, his movements slow, as his face shows more and more panic. He faints, but the man keeps strangling.
It takes a long time before he stops. then, he goes to a lever on the wall, marked with flush.
You attempt to stop him, but it's too late. An alarms sounds, and Carl walks up to you until you are face to face. He just looks strangely tired, while you remain stoic about this, despite your pity for the broken man.

A mercy for them by now. One you should have in due time. But for now, I'll be selfish, and grant it myself.
You never saw him take your gun. You get in covered in his blood and brains, and end up with a bit of meat in your mouth. You feel bad for enjoying the taste and swallowing, strangely. You take your gun back from his corpse.
So that takes care of that. Though, violently and overly dramatic to the max. You shrug, and take a look at what the flushing did. you put your face close to one of the cages, while the H9 whimpers and attempts to move back From the looks of it, not much. Most likely they needed to be hooked up to-SQUELCH
You sure are getting covered in blood in ways that aren't intentional today, aren't you.Looks like they have been given explosive implants as the victims start popping one by one. TW runs out of the room, and you hear her vomiting outside.
Bastards.
Before you interrogate, you need to have questions. What do you ask?
Or alternatively, how do you dispense justice?

WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT!? Who experiments on people and then puts explosives in them? And then puts the lever to activate them RIGHT THERE IN THE SAME ROOM.
Fucking architects pissing me off.

They having bombs actually has more sense than using them as war dogs. You know, maybe somebody says: "What the fuck is this? let's take it to out base to study it" *BOOM
