FOREST CITY 11:12 PM 05-08-2048 --- Boeing officials continue to stymie efforts of investigators aboard the iCruises luxury cruise ship Pearl of the East. Earlier in the evening today, at approximately 4PM, a series of explosions rocked the cruise ship while docked at Boeing Forest City. Several Boeing security personnel appear to have been targeted by the attack, which took place in the cargo bay. Fortunately, the cargo bay was no in use at the time, and no Apple staff and iCruises passengers were killed by the blast. An Apple-Mercedes strike copter was dispatched to the scene, and retaliated after being fired at by an intruder in one of the VIP cabins after the VIP was evacuated by an Apple Concierge Team to safety. Investigators now suspect that it is the work of terrorists targeting Boeing presence on the Malaysian peninsula, though no groups have stepped forward to claim responsibility. A number of suspects have been detained by Boeing Air Marshals, who have refused to release to them to Apple-Mercedes custody.

Boeing Debriefing of Lt. Rudolf Ullman

CLASSIFIED. EYES ONLY.

We heard an explosion somewhere else in the Pearl. I knew something was very wrong, as I had lost contact with the security detail in the cargo hold. I decided to evacuate Executive Kapoor back to the dock, but a pair of iCruises employees instructed us to hold up in the lower decks. This seemed unsafe, so I declined on behalf of Mr. Kapoor, at gunpoint. Shortly after that, we ran into someone who claimed to represent Councilor Seow of Temasek. He seemed to know exactly what the deal was about, and Mr. Kapoor acquiesced to doing the meet immediately, as her arriving in person seemed a remote possibility now. He wanted to close the deal even if it put his life at risk. We went to Maui Room, as instructed before, and as far as I could tell, he did exactly that. He closed the deal with Temasek, and remanded custody of the briefcase to their representative.

The Office of Councilor Margarette Seow

Press Release. While an unknown matrix source has disclosed an video allegedly showing Boeing executive Rex Kapoor striking a corporate agreement with Coucilor Seow via teleconference, the office of Councilor Margaret Seow denies any knowledge of, or participation in such an agreement. While Councilor Seow engages actively in negotiations with corporate entities to the betterment of Singapore's future, it is the unequivocal stance of this office that the video is only a fabrication created for the purpose of disrupting the harmonious relations that Singapore enjoys with Confederate Boeing. However, in the spirit of corporate negotiation and mutually profitable trade, Councilor Seow indicates that Temasek remains interested in the future expansion of the RSAF aerospace fleet and closer cooperation with the Boeing space elevator project, and the nation continues to welcome future overtures offered in genuine intent.
