Felix
I was working with the production crew, setting up the lights backstage when the whole mess happened. Right before things turned deadly, I saw Dr. Silver and Gigi having one of their famous ‘chats’—she looked about ready to blow. I can tell when someone’s on edge, and Dr. Silver was pacing like she had a few things on her mind, staying suspiciously close to the production room.
Dr. Silver
I was backstage, rehearsing my presentation one last time before heading to my seat in the front row. All those years in the lab don’t make for a great stage presence, you know? Felix claims he saw me and Gigi having a disagreement, but that’s just… passion! I wanted this launch to go perfectly; my life’s work was at stake. Why would I risk it all right at the finish line?
Billy
I was on the phone with my investors, trying to calm their nerves just before the big reveal. Investors can be jumpy, and I was reassuring them about the ‘elimination of obstacles.’ Gigi wasn’t even on my mind! Whoever claims they overheard me… misunderstood. Business and violence don’t mix—at least not for me.
Ruth
During the launch, I was with Cooper, talking about the latest regulatory hurdles. These things don’t approve themselves, you know? We discussed how, as Cooper put it, ‘the market will open up again,’ as if he had insider info. Oddly convenient timing, don’t you think? I wasn’t anywhere near Gigi when it all went down.
Cooper
I spent the time in the VIP lounge, discussing the business with Ruth. I’d heard Billy talking on his phone—he seemed pretty on edge. I wasn’t too focused on him, though; there was far more at stake with Aspire. Just a little conversation to stir things up… standard business rivalry, right?
Starli
I was backstage, adding a touch more glamour to my look—last thing I needed was a smear on camera! I did notice Felix and Dr. Silver heading toward the production room, all business and no smiles. They looked like they were working on something intense, too focused to notice little old me.
Detective Crispie
I saw Felix rush backstage earlier than expected, clutching his camera bag tight. Ruth looked distracted, glancing toward the production room even while talking to Cooper in the VIP lounge. And Dr. Silver’s shock when the mirror ball fell? Oddly convincing, but with someone like her, you never know.
Detective Payne
I overheard Billy on the phone, saying something about ‘eliminating obstacles.’ His tone was intense. Ruth headed straight for Cooper after the launch ended, and Dr. Silver—well, she was quick to call for ‘the show to go on’ even after the accident. Makes you wonder.
