"Alfie - 

We urge you not to ignore us anymore and to reconsider our very generous offer. We could combine our research together and create an even better product. Please reconsider before you make any rash decisions. 

- Your Friends" 

I read allowed the letter for everyone to hear.

"I wonder who his friends are. They don't sound very friendly. I was hoping this might be a handwritten love letter but it seems to be more like a threat."

After folding the letter back into the envelope, I turn the drawer upright and set the envelope inside.

"Is this where we want to collect evidence? Seems like a good enough place as any."

Yeah did you ever see Laforge going around with a can of grease painting the warp core? No, of course not."

@Bob "Odd, because I checked with the sensor logs (AKA Bob) and they show that I was alone in Engineering until the systems were restored, which was I told I did on my own, and that Captain Bennett joined me after that. Weird, really weird."

Modnote: I doublechecked what you'd said and what I'd said in response. I had replied that you were the only one in engineering initially before being joined by Bennett and the bridge crew. Bennett and the bridge crew joined you as you were finishing restoring main power, which is why they were able to help you with the FTL drive and with ensuring main power was properly restored. Or something. It might've been an oversight. :blush:

I'd like to put the remaining pieces of the teapot into a bag (which I always carry, in case I need to transport a greasy part from Engineering and don't dare risk getting oil on the guest's clothes, and of course I'm still wearing my gloves) and keep them on my person so that nobody will take them, because I will kick their ass if they try.

I'd like to search Alfie's suitcases, please.

Gabriella keeps the teapot pieces nice and safe.

Alfie has several suitcases in his closet. They contain normal vacation objects such as clothes, toiletries, leisure equipment, and various unimportant items. There's also a briefcase that appears to be locked with a combination or a fingerprint unlock feature.

I'd like to inspect the pockets of the clothes on hangars and in the shelves for any contents inside them, and the contents of the suitcase.

There's nothing too much inside the pockets of the clothes on the hangers except for some loose scrap papers with nothing on them, a few tissues, and some old fashioned coins.

Why do we even have grease now? There are only like 12 moving parts on the whole ship that aren't based on electromagnetism and energy fields. Oh well, I'm glad I thought that and didn't say it.

"Good job, Gabby."

Shush, you.

"Speaking of trampling evidence, if the teapot was used to kill Alfie, then Emily has just destroyed it. 

I'd like to have a closer look at the body to confirm cause of death.

It would appear that the cause of death was a mixture of blunt-force trauma and a stabbing.

I'd like to bring the locked suitcase to Alfie and use his cold dead finger on the fingerprint scanner to unlock the suitcase.

"Sorry kids, we gotta do this while there's still some warmth in the body."

Starting with the thumb of Alfie's right hand, I'd like to try all of his fingers and thumbs on the lock for the briefcase. I'm not forgetting about that frog either, but since we can only do one at a time...

"Since I'm still inspecting under the bed and can't multi-task, maybe you can have a closer look at the stab wound to see if we can tell whether it is likely from a sharp blade or something more like the shard?"

"Well then, inspect it while I'm busy with the briefcase!!! :wall::wall::wall: "

"Or fucking paint something if you're just going to be worthless."

Gabriella remembers that other humans have feelings and feels terrible about yelling at Oliver.

"I'm sorry, dipshit. Will you please look at the fucking frog already? Thank you."

"Don't make me like you. Nobody's my friend when my ship has been sabotaged."

I'd like to further inspect this stupid frog as I only got a generic description the first freakin' time.

Gabriella is speechless with emotion. She suddenly experiences the severe medical condition of having hearts sprout out of her head.

WTF?? :wub:

"Perhaps it might make sense at some point to transport the body to the kitchen, the cold storage should keep it from smelling too bad."

Arthur inspects the body as to whether the stab was to the corpse's front or back.

"Do you have any exsperience inspecting frog paper weights for hidden cameras Cap?"

"That particular skill has never come up before. I suppose we could simply scan it for electronics and potentially identify the type fairly easily."

Well, though I haven't stitched a wound in 40 years, I'm still a doctor.

I would like to examine the body in order to fill out the death certificate. Surely there's a medical kit with some rubber gloves on the ship? If I can fetch my stethoscope and penlight from my room, we would be all set.

Unless you have more advanced tech on this ship, that is.
