I think your prompt is overly optimistic; I'm pretty sure that any retaliation at a Scrabble tournament will require planning -- at least that's how the other players see it!
Retaliation Anthony stared at the board shaking his head; Theresa had played ENG on the end of translocation and he was trying to work out if she had some ridiculous combination of letters -- but then why hadn't she just changed them all? -- or if she was up to something. Deborah sat down, looking strained and ill and, each tile taking nearly a minute to manipulate into place on the board, managed to lay down PUKING. "Prediction or... oh, I see it's already happening," said Theresa sympathetically as Deborah's clear face-mask was coated from the inside by a slurry of partially digested breakfast pastries. Margaret said nothing, quietly turning Theresa's ENG into VENGEFULLY to strike the bottom triple word score and clear her rack.

Greg - eh, it seemed fitting.
Ooof, poor Deborah. And that's not even considering how badly her team is getting beat on the board!
