Thornton A.
Worthman invites his best friends and family on a cruise to the Simaican Isles
to celebrate his 100th million Simoleon! What he doesn’t know is,
that some of them think he doesn’t deserve it. One of them is even capable
of… Murder…

what a lovely morning! Perfect for taking a fresh dive in the pool.”

heartbreaking scream can be heard*
Katja:
“Oh my God, this early already? I wonder what kind of mess these guys have to offer now…”
Katja: “Good morning, how
can I help you?”
Diana: “My fiancée drowned in the pool!”
*Diana continues to cry*
*Diana continues to cry*
Katja:
“God, how horrible!”
*Bianca enters the front deck*
Bianca: “Katja, can you please be less loud when you get dressed?! My beauty sleep’s got ruined, thank you very much!”
Bianca: “Katja, can you please be less loud when you get dressed?! My beauty sleep’s got ruined, thank you very much!”
Katja:
“Bianca Giacometti, there are more serious matters now than beauty sleeps! Somebody has died
on board! The reputation of the Luxury’s Lap is in danger!”
Diana: “Hey!”
Diana: “Hey!”
Bianca:
“Who’s dead?”
Diana: “My
fiancée, Thornton
Bianca:
“Oh. That’s bad, I guess.” Goodbye, tip
Katja: “Can
you go and get the captain and Ayden? And eventually Mr. Peatman? And God, please
get dressed properly before you do so!”
Bianca:
“Ugh...”

Stubing: “Mr.
Worthman, I've got very bad news for you...”
Vincent:
“What happened?”
Stubing:
“This night, your brother has drowned.”
Vincent: “... No, no… Please tell me this is just a sick nightmare.”
Stubing: “I'm feeling very sorry for your loss, sir.”
Vincent: “Thank you.” *Vincent sobs* “Why you, Thornton, why?”
Vincent: “Thank you.” *Vincent sobs* “Why you, Thornton, why?”

“Hey babe, what’s wrong?”
Diana:

Tom Lee:
“Waitaminutestopholditwaitstopholditwaitaminutewaitstopholdit. He drowned in
the pool?”
*Diana
nods*
Tom Lee:
“Hmm, think of it. That’s not very Thornton
Diana: “It
is true. The crew is taking a closer look at the case up there, if you don't believe me.”
Tom Lee:
“Well, I guess I’m peeking there too then.”
Diana: “Oh,
and P.S., please never call me babe again.”
Janett:
“Sshht, tone it down, Law.”
Janett:
“Diana claims that Thornton
Janett:
“Indeed...”
Janett:
“Not yet. We have to pretend like his death is news to us.”
Janett:
“Stay here and pretend you’re still asleep, that should be doable. I’ll go up and then pretend to tell you the affair afterwards.”

Stubing:
“Any sign of Rudolph yet, Ayden?”
Ayden: “No.
If he would just hurry, my skin is starting to burn in this bloody hot sun.”
Tom Lee:
“Why don’t you try sparkling, just like your own obnoxious son?”
Ayden:
“REAL vampires do NOT sparkle. And by the way, Tristan’s dead to me.”
Tom Lee:
“Ahuh, sure bro.”
Katja:
“Ayden, please do not be rude to the guests.”
Rudolph:
“Sorry I'm late, I had to go to the loo, what can I do?”
Stubing:
“Ah, we need some extra help to move the body of the late Mr. Worthman.”
Rudolph: “Wait-
What!?”
Katja: “Stubing doesn’t allow any passenger or woman to touch the corpse,
so we need your help.”
*Rudolph gets
brainscarring thoughts and flees*
Rudolph: “MY
STOMACH!!!”
Ayden:
“Great, what now? We don’t want to move the body after rigor mortis, that would
be HELL.”
Katja: “OK,
sorry to break a rule, but I’ll help.”
Stubing:
“But-“
Katja:
“Girl Power, Stubing!”
Tom Lee:
“I’ll help too.”
Stubing: “NO WAY

me, can you tell me when breakfast’s ready?”

pff, not soon. Little incident on the deck.”
Janett:
“What happened then?”
Bianca:
“Somebody died.”
Janett:
“What!? Who!?”
Bianca:
“The Thornton
Janett: “My
God… I need to lie down…”
Bianca:
“Bye. Have a nice holiday.”
Bianca: Pff, drama queen...
Janett: Everything went better than expected.
Janett:
“Not about him…”
Janett:
“The blonde steward, I talked to her. She looked rather... happy about this.”

Ayden:
“Phew, I need a break! Is it really a good idea to move the body to the washing
room?”
Katja: “No,
but what other choice do we have?”
Ayden:
“Probably the kitchen? It’s much cooler in there.”
Katja: “And
give poor Rudolph a heart attack when he finds it in the fridge? I don’t think
so.”
Ayden:
“Well, you know how to do CPR him. And he’ll probably get used to it after awhile.”
*Rudolph comes in, gulps, and then goes for the loo again*
Katja:
“Err, I think we must disagree on that one...”
Stubing:
“Wait. What is this?”
Katja &
Ayden: “What’s what?”
Stubing:
“That spot, in his arm…”
Ayden:
“Very fishy…”
Katja: “Whoah! He isn’t using medication or something, so…”
Ayden : “No, please, this can’t be.”
Stubing: “Crew meeting, right now...”

“A little unfortunate? A little unfortunate!?”
Tom Lee:
“Ok ok, a real disaster then.”
Diana: “Hmph, convince me you think it is.”
Vincent: “Come
on guys, calm down. We need eachother to get over this.”
Diana: “No,
I won’t calm down! My fiancée has died, and-!”
Vincent:
“Well, keep in mind that I’m his own brother, and I’m not freaking out like you
do!”

Stubing: “Ok
crew, good thing that you all gathered here so quickly, you all know Mr. Worthman has
died on board.”
Min Hee:
“EEP! I didn’t!”
Stubing:
“Then you do now. Bianca, please do a better job next time on informing everybody on board about these affairs.”
Bianca:
“Grr.”
Katja:
“Back on topic. We took a closer look on the body and have discovered a
suspicious mark on his arm.”
Stubing:
“We’re thinking Mr. Worthman did not drown. That was most likely a cover for him being poisoned.”
Rudolph:
“What!”
Min Hee:
“Eep!”
Bianca: “Oh
no.”
Stubing:
“So I want all of you to stay near the passengers and act like mediators. I’ll check on
the security camera’s ASAP.”
Rudolph:
“And why not right now?”
Katja: “The
captain first wants to stop the cruiser, so nobody can flee the scene. And then
his hand in guiding the passengers is needed too, as the local authority on
board.”
Stubing:
“Exactly, Katja. Crew dismissed.”

Min Hee:
“Oh crapcrapcrap. Help!”
Rudolph:
“What’s wrong?”
Min Hee:
“The girl... She’s acting all weird now!”
Rudolph:
*looks at Odessa
Min Hee: “A- a Werewolf? What to do now?”
Rudolph: “Give her some rest and offer her a shoulder to cry on. The death of her father is quite something to
process, especially when he’s murdered.”
Min Hee:
“But what if she goes cra-“
Rudolph:
“Don’t worry, those are just dumb rumors spread by dumb Bridgeport
Min Hee:
“Thanks.” *looks at Odessa
Rudolph: “I
know. I gotta go, I’m already late with cooking lunch, plus I've never even cooked
breakfast, so… At least I can give you some time off for now, somebody else really needs it...”

Overview
***************************************************************************
That
afternoon was probably the most peaceful one on board of the cruiser during the
trip. The guests came and left the lunch whenever they felt to, and with a crew
member near on all occasions, they were constantly reminded not to fight with
their fellow passengers.
Dinner was
eaten in a similar way; nobody said a word at the occasion, time was passing
very slowly in the uneasy environment. And even though one could say somebody
would already go insane in the tensely uncomfortable situation, they couldn’t know yet that
the situation would become worse throughout the coming time on board. Another
thing they didn’t know, was that this would be the last time they would all 12
be together… Alive…

Bianca:
“Finally, some of these pathetic idiots on board are to bed. Finally we have some
time together.”
???: “OK.
So, you have heard of Thornton
Bianca: “Of
course. Oh, and I could drink his blood, being served in a huge glass with a
slice of lemon on top of it... Yum.”
???: “Sounds tasty, what
happened?”
Bianca:
“Oh, we were both at a party in Vegas, spent a ‘fun’ night together, and
the next morning, he was gone without having any trace left.”
???: “And
then?”
Bianca: “I
finally managed to backtrace him. When I spoke him, he pretended me to be a
completely random crazy girl who claimed her unborn baby was his. Like he removed
me from his office by security, I removed his child from this world. I wasn’t ready for motherhood anyway.”
???: “Ooh,
that’s juicy. Best to keep it for yourself…”

“Huh, why? How do you mean?”

others.”

Stubing:
“These two are up to no good. Luckily the hidden security cameras contain the
answer to this case.”
Stubing:
“Aha. Looky there, sneaky murderer, finally caught you in the act. And what a
clever try to disguise your deeds by throwing the body in the pool, nice try.
But I’ve discovered you identity, got the evidence on tape, and will arrest you
now. Time for justice.”
???: “Well well well, you
might’ve discovered my identity, but catching me in person? Not today, mweheheh...”
Stubing: “You!”
???: “Me.
*??? runs to Stubing*
???: “Maybe you idiots will catch me once, but not today, as I said.”
*??? runs to Stubing*
???: “Maybe you idiots will catch me once, but not today, as I said.”
Stubing:
“ARGH, GLASS IN MY EYES!!”
???:
“Haven’t you learned from your mommy and daddy? Watching too much TV is bad for
your eyesight…”
Stubing:
“Nice try... but you need more than a TV to let me fall.”
???: “I figured
that out myself already, you moron.”
*??? kicks Stubing right in his face*
*??? kicks Stubing right in his face*
Stubing:
“OW, DON’T!! AI!!”
???: *kicks
again* “Stop me then, huh!” *kicks several times more*
Stubing: “Ah.
Owtch. aih…
*Stubing dies
*Stubing dies
???: “Ah,
two down, 10 to go… Well, those tapes can better not end up in the wrong hands,
time to get rid of them… Well well, and if that isn’t the key to this room…”
Poor Stubing was the second victim of
the murderer. What will happen to this bunch of Sims without a true authorial
figure to guide this, as Tom Lee said, unfortunate party in a good way? Who of
these will lead? Who will undermine them? Who are dominating? And who are
dominated? And above all:
WHO IS THE MURDERER?
