Stop the Presses/Transcript

Annabel: Alright, let's go over what we have so far.

Annabel: We learned from our last case that the Triangle mostly works for 'clients' like our previous killer was.

Annabel: However, thanks to Alice, we managed to get some information regarding their movements and actions.

Isabel: On top of that, we know where to get more information about the Triangle, Lydia Maddox, a reporter for channel 5.

Isabel: She said she'd be waiting for us at the news station, we'd better get over there before something happens to her.

Annabel: Okay  , you and Isabel head over there and talk to Lydia, I'm sending Sonia with you for good measure.

Sonia: Oh great, I hope I don't mess things up.

Annabel: You're putting too much pressure on yourself Sonia, let's go, to channel 5 news station!

Chapter 1
Investigate News Station

Sonia: Holy crap, that woman is dead!

Isabel: No kidding, that if that hole in her head is of any indication, this was a murder.

Isabel: Fortunately, this isn't Lydia, but who could this...

Lydia: There you are  , I've been waiting...

Lydia: Oh my goodness! Justine is dead!

Sonia: You know her?

Lydia: Unfortunately yes, her name is... was Justine Silva, she was the weather girl for the station.

Isabel: In that case Lydia, we'll have to hold off on our conversation regarding the Triangle. Please step aside so we can question you further.

Sonia: Looks like this is our victim's phone, but it seems locked, mind unlocking it ?

Isabel: And it looks like someone wrote something on this paper, but it seems faded.

Isabel: If you think it means something , then go ahead and dust this to see what it is.

Isabel: Hopefully if this murder does sidetrack us, we'll be able to find this killer sooner rather than later.

Sonia: You're telling me.

Autopsy the Victim's Body

Examine Victim's Phone

Sonia: Excellent, looks like our victim recently received a message from one Drake Buckley.

Isabel: What does the message say?

Sonia: It says, "Be sure to lock up when you're in, we don't want anyone sneaking into the station."

Isabel: Seems like this Drake is a co-worker, let's ask him about our victim.

Ask Drake about his business with the victim

Drake: Hello officers, Drake Buckley of Channel 5 news, at your service. Care for an autograph?

Isabel: *groan* He's one of THOSE TV personalities.

Drake: I'm sorry, is something wrong?

Sonia: Ignore her, Mr. Buckley we're investigating the murder of Justine Silva, we're aware you and her worked together.

Drake: Wait, Justine was murdered?

Drake: I can't believe it, she and I worked together like PB and J, I reported the news, she handled the weather. Why would someone do something like this?

Isabel: That's what we're looking into Mr. Buckley, did Justine have any enemies?

Drake: Nothing beyond the average angry letter about her telling the weather incorrectly, but hey, we all make mistakes sometimes.

Sonia: Though not many result in one's death. We'll talk to you later if we have any more questions.

Examine Faded Letter

Isabel: Excellent work, let's see what this says!

Isabel: "Ik ze u luistert Justine, maar nu zul je betalen met je leven!"

Sonia: Well I know one thing is for sure, this isn't English.

Isabel: But since this mentions our victim, this has to be related to our investigation somehow.

Isabel: This looks like a job for Atticus! Let's see if he can translate for us.

Analyze Letter

Talk to Lydia about the victim

Isabel: So, anything you can tell us about our victim?

Lydia: Justine Silva has been our weather girl for almost 4 years now, she hadn't looked like she aged a bit.

Lydia: She always came into work with a positive attitude and tried to inspire everyone, though not many people would agree with her.

Isabel: How so?

Lydia: Its this whole Triangle business, it has been affecting morale everywhere, not just here.

Sonia: Well rest assured, we're doing everything we can to ensure those criminal receive their proper punishment.

Lydia: Thanks officers, if you want, I can lead you to Justine's dressing room, maybe you can find something there that can help.

Isabel: Sounds good, lead the way Lydia.

Investigate Dressing Room

Isabel: Looks like our victim knew a lot of people, look at all these photos.

Isabel: It seems this one is circled in particular, but who is this lady our victim is with?

Sonia: We can check the database for that, but this brush seems out of place. This doesn't look like a makeup brush from what I see.

Sonia: It seems as though there's a name on this brush, let's work on deciphering it, maybe we can find the owner.

Examine Photo

Sonia: So, did you get a match?

Isabel: We did, it appears our victim took a picture with quite the famous model.

Sonia: Famous model?

Isabel: Sabrina Ballard to be exact.

Sonia: Sabrina Ballard? Who would've thought she had those kind of connections?

Isabel: Let's ask Miss Ballard if she knew anything about our victim.

Question Sabrina about her interactions with the victim

Sabrina: What is it now, I have a photoshoot coming up in a few minutes, can this wait?

Sonia: Murder can't wait Miss Ballard, we need to talk to you.

Sabrina: Murder? Who got killed?

Isabel: Justine Silva, the weather girl for channel 5, did you know her?

Sabrina: OMG, Justine's dead!? No way!

Sabrina: She and I first met when she asked if her station could interview me for some insight into the world of modeling.

Sabrina: But she and I actually talked more after the interview, we've been pretty close friends as it is.

Sonia: Any idea who could have done this?

Sabrina: 'Fraid not, but if anything comes up, you'll be the first to know.

Sabrina: Now if you excuse me, I need to re-apply my nails for the photoshoot, TTYL.

Examine Brush

Sonia: The name on it reads Proctor, that sounds familiar.

Isabel: This wouldn't happen to be Bentley Proctor, the artist  met during his first investigation?

Sonia: It has to be, but why would our victim have Bentley Proctor's paintbrush? Best we ask him ourselves.

Ask Bentley about his paintbrush in the victim's dressing room

Isabel: Excuse me Mr. Proctor, you wouldn't happen to know anyone named Justine Silva, would you?

Bentley: Yes actually, she came by to ask if her news station could interview me about my artwork.

Bentley: Why do you ask, is she alright?

Sonia: Afraid not, Justine was found murdered at the station.

Bentley: What? Murdered?

Bentley: That's a shame. She seemed like a nice person, though a bit overenthusiastic for my tastes.

Sonia: Don't go far Mr. Proctor, we may need to ask you more questions later on.

Bentley: Don't worry, I know how this goes, I'll be around if you need me.
