I think the key part of this statement is "suffers the effects". The Action failed, thus when it would normally skip Step 5 of the resolving Actions it instead resolving step 5 as though the Attacking model were the defender and vice-versa. The effects of the action are just "target suffers 3/4/5 damage". As the Stitched is now the target, it would just read "(The Stitched Together) suffers 3/4/5 damage". As for Accuracy, the only mention in the rules is: It doesn't say "by how much the Attacker's duel total exceeded the defenders" , it just says the difference in the duel totals. Difference as per mathmatics is Absolute Value: | X-Y | , so it doesn't matter who won the duel, just the how far apart the two duel totals were. So as far as I can tell, if a Stiched were to have a duel total of 9 and the Defender a duel total of 14. The Attack would fail, and the Stitched would suffer a 3/4/5 damage flip (with an Accuracy of 5, ie a ). if a Stiched were to have a duel total of 11 and the Defender a duel total of 8. The Attack would fail (as the Stitched didn't reach the TN), and the Stitched would suffer a 3/4/5 damage flip (with an Accuracy of 3, ie still a ).
