Summary
Elisabeth Babbage wants to slow down Lt. Cmdr.Dylan Hopkins' career by having him publicly disgraced at an after-party of a Wagner concert. She hires three runners, who take care of the issue to her fullest satisfaction.
Background
Elizabet is a UCAS Navy Luitenant who earns extra money, dealing with 'misplaced' military hardware. In order for business to continue to prosper, she wants Lt. Cmdr. Dylan Hopkins career to be halted before he becomes a nuisance.
The Meet
Elisabeth Babbage arrenges a meeting with Glich, Ducky, and Gulliver at an off-base bar in Fort Lewis and informs them that she wants Dylan Hopkins humiliated publically. By Elisabeth's posure and the way she talks, Ducky quickly puts two and two together and understands that this is about preventing Dylan from further promotions within the Navy, and that Elisabeth and Dylan are adversaries within the same organization.
The runners are offered 16 000 Nuyen or payment in kind in the form of military hardware. They also manage to negotiate additional 1 000 Nuyen paid up-front to cover costs and as a sweetener. They accept the deal and are handed information about time & place of the venue as well as the personel-file of Dylan.
The Plan
Get access to the venue, a Hotel in Tacoma, possibly by taking on work at the hotel or getting Brodie J to get the runners on the guest-list. Get Dylan drunk and drugged at the after-party of the concert. Make him look bad and hope that people notice.
The Run
Various matrix searches do not reviel much information. However, the runners find out that the hotel has one open position as porter. That's not good enough, so Gulliver calls Brodie J. who is not of much help: "That's a booring event for booring people. I don't have booring friends. So sorry, I can't get you on the guest list. I can lend you a tuxedo thoug." So, that was nice. Gulliver tries to get on the guest-list through Alessa P. She also shrugs.
Finally, Glitch gets three tickets for the after-party through Da-xia.
Ducky organizes a wonderful dress through Mel.
