RICK ROLL THEM! Or just taunt them.

Do an incredibly awesome flex of your muscles, out-stretching your arms while inadvertently knocking back the brawlers as they try to attack you in a comedic fashion likened to that of a Disney movie.

You flex and extend your arms, waiting for the remaining thugs to charge into your arms and fall over in slapstick comedy fashion. Except... they don't. In fact, they appear to have left or something (well, the ones that could still move, anyway).

Huh.

Ask the bar tender for two glasses of his strongest brew and if you can borrow his shotgun.

You walk up to the terrified barkeep and ask for two glasses of something. You don't care what it is, as long as it's loaded with alcohol. The barkeep obliges. You drink the brew. You feel it could use more alcohol, but you don't feel like complaining. Only complain when complaining isn't too much of a hassle, that's your motto. Actually, you change your mind. No it isn't. That's the worst motto you've had yet. Ever. Complaining is almost always good.

You then ask if you can borrow the bar tender's shotgun.

"Shotgun? Hah! You think that we'd still be in this mess if we had a shotgun? Those darn Rough N' Toughs wouldn't be here intimidating and controlling everything in the station, that's for certain!"

RICK ROLL THEM! Or just taunt them.

You decide to Rick Roll the very few Rough N' Toughs (which is apparently the actual name for their gang or something) that are still here. They are too unconscious to listen though. The bender yells to you from behind the bar.

"Hey, you may want to save the taunting for now. Those darn thugs will probably soon be back with reinforcements. They're all over this here station, you know. And you've rustled them off. I think you can figure out the rest for yourself."

You tell the barkeep that you can handle a few thugs. He doesn't seem to believe you, but screw him. He didn't even give you enough alcohol. You should be drunk right now. And you aren't. And this pisses you off. You think you might want to take it out on the Rough N' Toughs which the station is apparently full of.

check their bodies for weapons

check their bodies for weapons

You check the badly beaten Rough N Toughs for weapons. There are no guns, but you do find a pipe. It should be a pretty good weapon until you end up getting it knocked out of your hands or something. The bar tender starts doing that whole "talking to you" thing again.

"So, I see you are going to try and fight them. That's good. You ain't got much of a choice, but at least you seem like you're gonna give em' a fight. Their leader is a really, really tough and rough guy. I hope you're ready. You knows, maybe you'll even drive em' off! Haha! That'll be the day, eh?"

You're sidekick finally begins to recover from the shock.

"Wha-? Did you accidentally start something with an evil gang who has taken over a neighborhood and/or space station? Great. Now we are going to have to fight are way through the place until we take out their leader. I bet this is all part of a conspiracy. They know we're on to them, so they set up this little "diversion" to keep us occupied! Well, we'll show them! Come on, whippersnapper, let's show "them" that a little problem like this won't take us much time to solve!"

For someone who was just frozen in shock and fear, he seems really ready to beat up some evil gang members. At least you'll have some backup.

Ask, no, DEMAND more alcohol. Fighting while drunk is the best way to fight. That's your motto.

In that order.

beat up the barman if he doesn't give you more alcohol

Ask, no, DEMAND more alcohol. Fighting while drunk is the best way to fight. That's your motto.

You go up to the bar tender and order him to give you an alcoholic beverage.

"Sorry, pal, I'm all out. It's probably a good thing you showed up when you did. The Rough N Toughs ain't gonna be pop flyin' when they find out the beer is gone."

beat up the barman if he doesn't give you more alcohol

You consider using physical violence against the bar tender, but it seems like too much of a hassle. He's all the way on the other side of that bar. You'd probably have to waste a bunch of energy climbing over it, and he's got all sorts of glass objects that could be easily changed into pointy ones. You figure it isn't worth the trouble. Never waste energy when you don't have to, that's your motto.

Search for Rough'n'Toughs to beat up and Glare at.

Well, you aren't getting anything done just standing around like this. You figure you'd better get to beating up the legions of evil gang members. It's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it.

You and your sidekick leave the bar. It looks like you are in the restaurant and store area of the station. It's arranged like a hall, with the entrances to the various businesses on either side. You are at one end of the hall place, which is a dead end, and at the other end is presumably transportation to get to more areas of the space station. If you are correct, and you usually are about these things, the leader of the Rough N' Toughs is probably about as far from your current position as is possible.

Also the hallway is full of Rough N' Toughs.

How do you proceed with the beatings?

Engage in a gentlemanly round of fisticuffs.

Your class and etiquette while kicking their asses will confound them to no end.

tell them they smell

Throw side-kick into nearest Rough'n'tough then charge screaming.

My Uncle gave advised me for this exact situation.

"Boy, when you're as drunk as 15 Irishmen and in the middle of a barfight, all you need to do is borrow the bartender's shotgun, and if that doesn't work, punch the blurriest shape,"
