The Lighthouse on Fox island was out of order which, combined the tardiness of the first mate, caused the ferry to run aground. The investigators saved themselves towards the lighthouse, but their rowboat got damaged after hitting the wreckage of a recently sunk ship.
  
-After barely making it to shore, they found subtle hints about an attack on the lighthouse. Gathering clues, they found evidence that one of the lighthouse-keepers has been trying to sell some coins and later come across four golden coins in the locker next to one of the beds.+After barely making it to shore they found subtle hints about an attack on the lighthouse. Gathering clues, they found evidence that one of the lighthouse-keepers has been trying to sell some coins since middle of July and later they indeed come across four golden coins in the locker next to one of the beds. Repair records showed that the lighthouse had bulb problems one night in early July.
  
-When they explored the top of the tower, they found the grizzly scene of a light-housekeeper's last stand against several horrendous fish-like humanoids. Trying to get help as fast as possible they fired off a flare from the top of the lighthouse and started to repair the radio. Barring the doors of the lighthouse proved critical, after the creatures started another assault. But two unblocked windows were enough of a weak point to allow the beasts to launch venomous darts at the investigators. Scared they fled to the top, hoping to hold out until help arrives.+When they explored the top of the tower, they found the grizzly scene of a lighthouse-keeper's last stand against several horrendous fish-like humanoids. Trying to get help as fast as possible they fired off a flare from the top of the lighthouse and started to repair the radio. Barring the doors of the lighthouse proved critical, since the creatures started another assault shortly after. But two unblocked windows were enough of a weak point to allow the beasts to launch venomous darts at the investigators. Scared they fled to the top, hoping to hold out until help arrives.
  
 Three fish creatures tried to charge up, but two were shot dead on the stairs by the revolver-wielding Clergyman, while the last one was punched over the handrails by Fred. Just twenty minutes later the Johnstown Coastguard arrived and brought them to safety at Wickford, RI. Three fish creatures tried to charge up, but two were shot dead on the stairs by the revolver-wielding Clergyman, while the last one was punched over the handrails by Fred.

-  * The investigators are currently in custody of the US coast guard +  * The Officer Walton of the US coastguard recorded the strange tale about the lighthouse keeper murdered by Fish monsters and the fight for survival on top of the tower. Augustus received a checkup by the local Dr. O'Malley and was picked up by his chauffeur, while the rest of the group was driven home by the coastguard. 
-  * The group now owns four mysterious golden coins adorned with obelisks and strange symbols that they ccould sell?+  * Thanks to quick help by other local ships the SS Mary Sue was recovered before the high tide rolled in and all possessions left on the ship were returned to the investigators, together with $5 and an apology from the captain. 
 +  * Wednesday morning all 4 investigators were questioned by FBI Officers Miller and Shaw about the events on the island. They claim that forensics went to the island on Monday, but is seems like they only found the remains of two lighthouse keepers and no seacreaturess. Still, Evelyn noted some uneasiness in the Agents when she questioned them about fish traces. 
 +  * The FBI took fingerprints from all investigators. 
 +  * After the questioning, the FBI warned the investigators that one of the lighthouse keepers had an FBI affiliation and it could have been an attack by a criminal organization to silence him. It would be best to keep quite about the entire accident. 
 +  * Meanwhile, the apartments/houses of all investigators were searched by the police, and the clothes worn on the day of the accident were confiscated as evidence. 
 +  * Roughly a week later, break-ins happened at the investigator's houses/apartments, but strangely nothing was stolen. Only Augustus and Evelyn find traces indicating some fish involvement. Both called the police and Augustus even hired a P.I., but no culprit could be identified. 
 +  * About 2 weeks after the incident, the bloated corpse of the third lighthouse keeper is found at Narragansett bay.
