Previously on DS102:

The Delta shift FCO appears to have been murdered at the beginning of the annual Federation Science Council by a fast-acting contact poison.

An investigation has begun but is in its initial phases, and the members of the Science Council are scheduled to begin arriving within the hour

So now what? Let's find out.

SC_Capt_Marek dice:
::making notes of the first interview, while waiting the next person to be interrogated::
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
SC: Who do we have next?
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
::returns to Operations and takes her seat at flight... feeling very uneasy by sitting there::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
::leaves her office and walks down the corridor::
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
::looks around the room thinking about how quiet it is with everybody so busy with the investigation::
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
CTO: I guess we should double our efforts to find the one whom is behind the crime of Ensign Kraniuk, and reinforce all security measures for the Convention. The hypothesis of a terrorist action is still valid.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
*CNS*: Counselor, I think we would require of your assistance with the interrogation.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
::steps into the lift when the doors slide opens:: Computer: Ops... ::hears the Captain:: make that interrogation.
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
::activates her console and begins to check location of the nearby ships::
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
*CO*: Captain, how do you feel about coordinating a crime investigation?
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
*SC*: On my way, Captain.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
SC: I assure you, Captain, the security of the Convention is first on my mind.
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
::remembers the story a friend told her about a Ferengi giving another FCO a problem on the Starbase far, far away::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
::steps off the lift and walks the short distance to interrogation:: SC: You called for me, Captain?
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
*FCO*: Have all the vessel transporting the scientist to the Convention arrived?
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
::looks to the CNS:: CNS: Counselor.
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
*SC*: Uh, I believe the last ship is arriving now, Sir. I'm... I'm double-checking.
CO_Yo`Ghi dice:
*SC*: I'm sorry Captain, but I don't follow, you will have to tell me more about what is going on here
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
CNS: Indeed, I guess your unique empathic abilities will be extremely useful for the interrogation.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
CTO: Lieutenant, bring the next... ::raises an eyebrow:: suspect inside for interrogation.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
::nods in understanding:: SC: I'll do everything that I can to assist.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
*CO*: Captain, I will brief you on the subject, if you can join us in Conference Room 3 in let's say five minutes?
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
::nods and steps out to the next room leads the next suspect back in::
CO_Yo`Ghi dice:
*SC*: I'll see you there
CO_Yo`Ghi dice:
:: walks to the nearest turbolift :: TL: Conference room 3
Anfitrión Gerry dice:
ACTION: A Danube-class runabout approaches the station at warp 5
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
*FCO*: Very well, Lieutenant. By the way, double check the passenger lists... Just in case. Marek out.
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
::looks for ID signal from the runabout::
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
Com: Runabout: This is Deep Space 102, please identify yourself.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<TO Erickson>FCO: It will be here in 4 minutes. ::awaiting it's reply::
CO_Yo`Ghi dice:
:: walk to the conference room ::
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<TO Erickson> ::monitoring its approach on sensors::
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
*SC*: Operations center to Captain Marek, Sir, we have a currently unidentified runabout approaching us at warp 5.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
*FCO*: ETA?
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
::glances back at the TO for confirmation:: *SC*: Just under 4 minutes now Sir.
Anfitrión Gerry dice:
@COM: FCO: This is the Runabout Missouri, carrying Federation Science Council member T'Lara of Vulcan. Requesting permission to dock and approach vectors for same.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<TO Erickson> ::nods to her:: FCO: and prepared to go on alert.
CO_Yo`Ghi dice:
:: enter the conference room, nod to the SC and wait for him to be done with his communication ::
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
COM: Missouri: Understood, slow your approach and do not attempt to leave your runabout until you have been searched.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
::leads the suspect to a chair and sets him down into the chair and hands the SC a PADD with the suspects information on it.::
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
*FCO*: Did the ship respond to our hail?
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
::nods at the CO::
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
SC: Brian Griffen, Captain.
Anfitrión Gerry dice:
@COM: FCO: Understood. Slowing to impulse in 30 seconds. Is there something wrong, DS-102?
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<TO Ercison> ::alerts security to clear the dock and secure and confirm once passengers disembark::
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
COM: Missouri: Just heightened security for the convention. Nothing to worry about.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<TO> FCO: Security is enroute to dock.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
::watches Griffen carefully::
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
CO: Well, Captain, to make a long story short, we have a murderer on the loose aboard the Station. He or she murdered Ensign Kraniuk while she was on duty in Main Operations.
Anfitrión Gerry dice:
@COM: FCO: Understood... makes sense now. Approaching on vector 112 mark 6. Docking in 2 minutes...mark.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
CO: So far, we have several hypotheses, from a crime of passion, a terrorist attack or a serial killer.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
::notices Griffen entering the room::
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
Griffen: I assume you know why you your presence has been requested here. ::raises an eyebrow::
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<SEC Phil> ::just getting the dock secure and awaits the arrival of the runabout::
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
::whispers:: CO: We are in the process of interrogating a number of potential suspects taken from a list that OPS made some minutes ago.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
Griffen: I will remind you, false statements would not be logical with us.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
*FCO*: Lieutenant, did the ship respond to our hail?
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
:;whispers:: CO: Essentially, we need to find out what was the reason for the crime ASAP, that is why I have all the Senior Staff working in the investigation.
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
*SC*: Just finishing that now, Sir. They claim to be carrying a member of the Federation Science Council. I made it clear they are not to leave their runabout until they've been cleared.
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
COM: Missouri: Sending cleared approach vector to you, Missouri, see you when you arrive.
Anfitrión Gerry dice:
@COM: FCO: We are docked and awaiting your security personnel, DS102. Lieutenant Sims out.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
*FCO*: Understood. Keep me informed. Marek out.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<TO Ericson> FCO: The ship has docked and SEC are about to great them.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
<Griffen> CTO: I hear you.
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
COM: Missouri: Understood, security is enroute. DS-102 out.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<SEC Phil> :: comes to the airlock and cycles the doors to greet the newcomers::
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
::sighs heavily as she closes the com:: TO: You get the next one.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<TO Ericson> FCO: Thanks, always wanted to… ::pauses:: right.
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
TO: Let me know when they've been cleared so I can inform the Captain.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
Griffen: Did you know Ensign Kraniuk?
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<TO Ericson> FCO: Yes ma’am.
Anfitrión sFCO_Lt_Sims dice:
::shuts down the runabout and turns to T'Lara:: T'Lara: They are here, miss. I'm letting them onboard. ::opens the main hatch for the security people waiting::
CO_Yo`Ghi dice:
SC: So how many do we have to interrogate now?
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
<Griffen> SC: I knew her in passing, but didn't know her well
Anfitrión sFCO_Lt_Sims dice:
<T'Lara> sFCO: Thank you, Lieutenant. Your conduct has been exemplary. ::nods::
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<SEC Phil> ::watches as the hatch opens and looks inside:: To whoever is there. I hear there is a Vulcan Scientist aboard. I need to see authorization of that person.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
CO: Let me check, the full list is about ten people.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
Griffen: Again, please remind me of your occupation aboard the Station.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
<Griffen> SC: I work on the flight deck, Captain, sir.
Anfitrión sFCO_Lt_Sims dice:
SEC: Right here, sir. ::extends his arm with a PADD and points to T'Lara:: This is T'Lara of Vulcan, geothermal specialist from the Vulcan Science Academy.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
CO: I have that list if you would like to see it, sir.
CO_Yo`Ghi dice:
SC: It's alright; I'm following your lead on this
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
Griffen: Very well, you mention that you didn't know her well, so, please, state specifically the nature of the relation with her.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<SEC Phil> ::takes the PADD and hands it to another SEC officer who checks it with the station computers:: sFCO: One moment while I have that confirmed, please accept my apology for this inconvenience.
Anfitrión sFCO_Lt_Sims dice:
SEC: No problem. ::smiles and nods::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
<Griffen> SC: She was in the department, so I saw her from time to time at meetings and such. Ran into her a few times in the mess. Different things like that.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<SEC Joe> ::hands the PADD to back to Phil and nods that it is OK::
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<SEC Phil> ::Hands the PADD back to sFCO:: sFCO: Everything is in order. T'Lara is cleared. My men will escort her to her suite, and if you wouldn’t mind, I want your ship checked out.
FCO_LtJG_Raash dice:
::continues her work on keeping ships in proper position::
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
Griffen: So, you cannot say you were friends.
Anfitrión sFCO_Lt_Sims dice:
SEC: Anywhere a fellah can get a shower, shave and drink? My orders are to escort Miss T'Lara to and from the conference.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<TO Ercson> FCO: Sec just has cleared a T'Lara of Vulcan, a geothermal specialist. She was on the list of attendees.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
<Griffen> SC: No, just acquaintances.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
Griffen: When was the last time you saw her?
Anfitrión sFCO_Lt_Sims dice:
SEC: Sure, take your time...it's a standard Federation Runabout. Com1 is the security protocol panel. 
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
<Griffen> SC: A few days ago on the flight deck.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<SEC Phil> sFCO: Of course, come with me, I can dig you up something. I'll get you taken care while teh runabout is being checked out. ::steps away and waits for sFCO to come with im::
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
Griffen: Do you remember what did you talk about?
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
::studying Griffen as he answers the questions watching his reactions and body movements::
Anfitrión sFCO_Lt_Sims dice:
::follows SEC:: Phil: Thanks, Brother. You can only do so much when you're driving one of those things...
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
<Griffen> SC: Just talk about the shuttles that were being serviced.
Anfitrión sFCO_Lt_Sims dice:
<T"Lara> SEC: I shall require someone to show me the way to my guest quarters. I am certain I can make my way from there.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
Griffen: So, basically a technical chit-chat between you and Ensign Kraniuk?
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<SEC Phil> ::laughs:: sFCO: you’re not telling me anything new. My first stint was on an old cargo freighter, and a small one at that. I would go weeks without even a hot bath. ::leading sFCO to a temporary guest quarters he knows about::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
<Griffen> ::nods:: SC: Yes, Sir, just work related.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
Griffen: Very well.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
CO/CTO/CNS: Any questions you may ask to Mr. Griffen?
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
<SEEC TOM> T'Lra: This fellow here and myself will gladly lead you to your quarters, ma'am.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
::double checks the suspects list::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
SC: From all my observations of Mr. Griffen, he is being open and honest with you.
Anfitrión sFCO_Lt_Sims dice:
<T'Lara> SEC: My thanks for your hospitality then. ::nods::
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
CNS: ::nods::
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
Griffen: were was you during that morning
CO_Yo`Ghi dice:
SC: Nothing from me for now
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
<Griffen> CTO: As I'm sure you know, I'm on Gamma shift, so I was in the mess hall eating. When I finished there, I went straight to quarters to sleep.
SC_Capt_Marek dice:
Griffen: Very well, thanks for your time, Mr. Griffen. Please remind available in case we may need you. That is all.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand dice:
<Griffen> SC: Yes, Sir, I have no plans to leave the station, Captain.
CTO_LtJg_Salor dice:
::nods and makes note to check the replicator’s usage in Station OPS to see if he used it at end of shift::
