Naturally, something unexpected happened, and it's up to us to find out what.

All Name Solutions

We have ten people to identify in this scenario.

• The majority of the speakers here are returners from previous scenarios.
• There are two new women - one is related to a character we already know. Can you find references to family anywhere to point you in the right direction?
• Something has obviously happened that everyone now knows about. When you know what it is, the names of the women, specifically which woman is which, become obvious.
• The cameraman seems to be an intern. Is there a document that names an intern?
• Meetings often have lists of those attending, which would be handy for a certain someone in the boardroom.

All Event Solutions

There are two event panels in this scenario, but the second follows directly from the first.

• The first panel deals with the reason for the characters being here in the first place, and the events that preceded the dramatic moment that you're witnessing.
• The second panel deals directly with the dramatic moment and the specific reasons for it happening.
• Many of the words deal with the technology used to broadcast what the scientists are doing to the broadcast. Understanding what was and wasn't seen and heard is important here.
• What do the drawn pictures have to do with the experiment?
• We know the I.D.O.L. can give and take memories, but what's the range and scope here? There are markings on the floor coming from the machine, what do they imply?
• Tim Spender's itinerary is an important piece of the puzzle here which should help you figure out timings and locations.
• The lens inside the I.D.O.L. is the ≈ 1 day lens, not the ≈ 1 minute lens. What implications does this have?

Solutions

Events I

At OPIG's laboratory in New Wells, the team held a demonstration to show that the I.D.O.L. could give and take memory.

The I.D.O.L. was used to take ≈ 1 day's worth of memory from Tim Spender and then give it to Eugene Marmot.

Events II

This included a memory of Tim Spender and Jasmine Patel at the Love Motel.

At the company's headquarters in Bay Haven, the board received this memory via a live broadcast, prompting Annette Spender to attack Jasmine Patel.
