By way of example:
Burning a vampire in torpor is part of Vulnerability's resolution.
Even so, Sudden Reversal is played between the time that Vuln. is
played (with the requesite nomination of victim) and the time that
it resolves. Likewise for Hostile Takeover.

Good question. I was about to say "yes", but remembered that you
can't interupt the play-resolve sequence (except with Sudden Reversal).
HC cannot be tapped between the play-resolve sequence of HT, any more than
it could be tapped between the time a second HC was played and put into play.
