As T’Mor proceeded to look over the hot tub, Kyle allowed his eyes to glance up at the ceiling. “Computer,” he called out, “Initiate a Level 3 Tachyon Sweep of the XO’s quarters.” Kyle stood watching the young Vulcan as he awaited the results.

The computer was silent for a moment as beams whirled in the air completing the scan. “No Tachyon particles detected,” came the brisk and professional reply.
In the water in the hot tub, the CSO wouldn’t find anything unusual other than some stray compounds that were the result of common chemical reactions.

Bringing herself to her feet, McMorran sighed loudly. “Well, there are no clues to be found in the water.” She glanced over to the hot tub controls. “I think we can safely start to cool this place down now, unless anyone objects…” The pale woman fanned herself with a hand as she reached to begin adjusting the controls but pulled back before she reached them. Instead, she set her tricorder to begin a quick sweep for fingerprints on the dials and nobs, curious as to who’s she would and wouldn’t find.
“If I may, Lieutenant,” T’Mor started, “I suggest we have these finger prints analyzed to confirm who was present at the scene.”
The CSO nodded. “We’ll complete our investigation here then take any and all samples we’ve collected over to a lab to analyse.” A melancholy sigh escaped her as she looked around the scene, her eyes gravitating to what she thought was an anachronistic decorative stack of round stones at the far side of the tub. “For now, leave, well… no stone unturned.”
She had no idea at this point that there was foul play involved. Though it did not matter, as she was focused on simply doing her job. So much so she barely acknowledged the Tachyon scan, and had no idea that the other cadet was looking her way.
T’Mor switched her tricorder to scan the champagne itself. It was set to scan for anything that was not alcohol that could have effected the partakers. While her eye was more trained to recognize organic compounds or microorganisms, she knew enough about the basic composition to recognize if something was off.

Damn, Kyle mused to himself. He turned to Lieutenant McMorran, “Well ma’am, there goes one theory. Might I suggest that I go to check the Security feed of the XO’s quarters, that’s our next best theory?”
-Cadet Kyle Anders: Security-
“Mmm”, Aili hummed with a finger raised. “We should stick together for now, we can’t be sure what expertise this investigation will require. Here!” She beckoned Anders over to a large wall display near the quarters’ doors. The display came to life, its light catching the thick wisps of steam that floated around the room. A quick tapping in of the CSO’s authorisation code later, a typical security display took over the screen. “Do what you can from here, for now.” She flashed a smile to Anders before brushing past him as she returned to see what T’Mor had found.
