[IC - LOS ANGELES] Interviewing Miss Spenzel (Holly, Chris.)

A decade ago, a band of occult investigators battled against the summoning of an ancient and monstrous evil. They failed. Now you must piece together the puzzle and finish what they could not. The stakes are high, and so is the price to pay. Can you do it?

Christopher Fontana

Christopher writes down the new information, underlining the words 'drugs' and 'nectar';if the police were investigating Echavarria and asking about drugs then there could be a very strong possibility that was where Echavarria's wealth came from and if Echavarria was the manufacturer/distributor then who has stepped into that gap since his death.

"Are you saying that the detective's had a link between this drug and Echavarria? Is that the impression you got from them?" he asks.
OOC:   Shame this isn't a modern game, could call the others on their cell-phones to ask questions at the police station.

"Oh no... I don't remember their names... it was so long ago. But I remember their faces... I always had a good memory for people, you know". She makes a brief description of two men, providing a good amount of details.
Holly,You remember the portraits on Henslowe's notebook and, while you can't be 100% sure, you think there's a good chance the two men might be Walter Winston e Vincent Stack.

"Thank you," says Holly, nodding and adding her conclusions to her notes. "Maybe it was the drugs that turned your brother into a different person. That happens all too often."

"Yes... Yes, perhaps it is as you say", she says, then falls silent, probably reminiscing the past.

"Do you know which movies Ricky starred in?" asks Holly, planning to compare the list to Olivia Clarendon's filmography to see if they were in any of the same movies.

"Oh, that... I don't remember most of them... but I kept some articles... from newspapers, and tabloids, you know...", she disappears again in another room and returns a few minutes later with a series of newspapers clippings, reviewing and discussing movies that featured Richard Spend. You check the list and can definitely find some movies that starred both Richard and Olivia Clarendon. They were taking lots of minor parts in those days, though, and it doesn't seem like they were always starring in the same movies - just sometimes.

"Did you know that Olivia Clarendon starred in some of Ricky's movies too, before she was famous?" asks Holly.

"Olivia Clarendon? No, I didn't... what's she got to do with Ricky?, Yolanda asks, puzzled.

"I'm not sure," says Holly. "They were costars in a few different films. I just thought it was interesting that they knew each other and wondered if they were close."

"I'm not sure... I don't think I ever met her. Do you think she was involved with the pornography?!", she gasps and cover her mouth with her hand in an exaggerated gesture of surprise.

"I've seen no evidence of that," says Holly carefully. "Without it, all there is is speculation."
OOC,Does her surprise being exaggerated mean she isn't truly surprised? What does Assess Honesty tell me about her reaction?

Assess Honestly,It seems that it's news to her, but she probably expects all the people in the cinema industry to be corrupt, and she likes a good scandal. You identify her as the classic middle age woman in love with gossip.

"Oh... sure... I see", she looks mildly disappointed, and let the conversation fall, focusing again on her brother's photo.

"Do you know anything about any of the other members of the cult that Ricky joined?" asks Holly. "Have you ever met any of them?"

"A cult?! What are you talking about? He was doing some nasty stuff, with the drugs and the... the... the pornography... but he surely never worshipped the Devil or anything like that!", she stands up and cross her arms, "I would like you to leave now".

"I'm sorry, Miss Spenzel," says Holly. "I hadn't meant...we'll leave now. Thank you for your time, and I'm sorry for your loss." She rises and leads the way back outside. She has already asked all of the questions she had wanted to ask, so she doesn't feel like she is missing any information.
OOC,Can I use Reassurance here?

Spoiler:
She's very agitated, but a 2-points Reassurance spend would calm her. Otherwise, since it's well into the afternoon, I suggest you head back to the hotel and discuss the latest developments with the others.

OOC,Can [b]Christopher[/b] and I work together, each spending a point of Reassurance, or do both points have to come from one of us?

OOC,Okay, I'd like to do that. Carnage_lee is away, but he said I could run his character for him in his absence. I'd guess that extends to spending a point for him. We each would still have one point of Reassurance left.

Spoiler:
OOC:   I was checking the investigators and Christopher doesn't have Reassurance. So, if you want to make the spend, all the points will have to come from Holly.

If you decide to do the spend, do you also want to continue the interview, or it's just to leave a good impression?
