Professor Riesling

You are college professors.  Mr. Riesling teaches philosophy and Mrs Riesling teaches medical science - yes, your work often brings you at academic odds, but it's all for the best.

More background

Your study isn’t the only place where you’re at odds; Mr. R. believes that the country should get rid of prohibition and is a firm supporter of Mr. J. Meister whereas Mrs. R. knows the effect of etoh on animals and supports the view of Mrs. Schnap (head of Women’s Voter League).

Your debates and profound comments are often done for many to hear, but your differences never keep you apart for long.

What has happened

Last night you both retired relatively early due to the cold and powerful storm.

Today you kept occupied with a game of Go with Capt. Meritage and just passing the time with one of Mrs. Silveroak’s many books. 

You both heard the scream around 2pm though you decided it was best not to see what happened as there were several fast footsteps above you heading to check it out.

You both saw 5 folks coming to the hotel in the middle of the night from the direction of the train station.  There seemed to be two men supporting a woman (she didn’t look well) and then a young couple with them.

Advice

Probably makes sense to meet with everyone you should already know.

You have a “small” role, which means you can have even more fun with it. J
