[MaC] Interviewing Fitzroy

[Mel Mason]

Philip, putting a finger to his lips, moved to the now-closed door of
the bathroom and listened, in case Fitzroy was up to something.


(OOC - actually, the bathroom is on the lower floor of the penthouse flats, 
while you are all upstairs (in Flat 19).  See:

and

When Fitzroy hurried to the bathroom, Osawald moved to the top of the stairs 
so that he could look down the stairs and across the hall to the bathroom 
door.  People can hurry down there and try to get him out, but bear in mind 
you'll be going down a flight of stairs).

All that could be heard was Fitzroy groaning, and then being violently ill 
again.

Finally, Marjorie and Philip made out words.  "I've ... been ... poisoned!"

The door was resolutely locked - it was possible that Fitzroy was too far 
gone to open it.
