Your Great Alibi

Who: Keto, Wildflower, Seymour, Phil, Mini-Phil, Jack, McJohn,
Callum, Efof, Anyone Else Who I've Missed Due To My Brain
Where: Cargo Bay
When: When Seymour called for the re-enactment
================================
<<SNIP>>
> "Get that man a wig!" Seymour called out.
<<END SNIP>>
"I don't need a wig, I have all my own hair," said Keto, sounding
somewhat puzzled as he stepped through the doorway behind Efof.
"I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about Efof!" snapped
Seymour, "You might-be-a-murderer, you!"
"We're not still going on about this, are we? Is this what Holly
told me to come down here for?"
"Actually, he's accusing all of us," shrugged
Wildflower, "Including me."
"And me," put in Jack.
"And him," nodded Seymour, jerking a thumb at Callum, who was still
explaining his holographic-revival idea, "He seems far too eager to
solve this thing."
"Says the man trying to be a detective," murmured Wildflower under
her breath. Seymour shot a glare at her. "Besides," she
continued, "Reviving Jasmine as a hologram wouldn't work. The crew
get regular brain scans to update their holograms, yes, but they only
happen once every couple of months. IF people turn up."
"I've been busy," snapped Seymour.
"Doing what? You don't DO anything!"
"RIGHT! ENOUGH!" shouted Seymour suddenly, "Mr FeBuggre, arrest
these people!"
"What, all of them?" asked Phil.
"Yes!"
"Umm...I think maybe we'd better go with your let's-play-whodunnit
game."
"It's not a game!" said Seymour irritably, "I want us to re-enact
the murder so we can see where everybody was at the time of death!
Efof, get a wig and a dress on!"
"Okay!" said Efof happily, "It might take me a while to find one
that matches my eyes..."
"Can't we just get him to lie down and play dead?" sighed
Wildflower, "It's not as if he actually has to LOOK the part, is it?
In fact, it's not as if he actually CAN look the part!"
"Fine. Efof, lie down," ordered Seymour sulkily, "Over there.
Where the body was."
Efof obediently did as he was told.
"Now," said Seymour, "Where were you all before the body was
found? What about you, Doctor Murderer?"
"Can we stop with that, please?" sighed Keto, shaking his head, "I
was down on the medical supply deck, getting some sterilising fluid
after all the trouble with the clones."
"A likely story," snorted Seymour.
"Really? And what's your great alibi, Mr Ambassador?" asked
Wildflower, raising an eyebrow.
