Re:
Where did our cash go?

Thank you for coming in. Island Drama Productions Sdn Bhd makes Fruit Love Island, the nation's juiciest fruit dating show. Hotline votes are up and sponsors are happy. Our bank balance, however, is not.

Between January and September 2026 the company's cash came out lower than our revenue and our usual bills can explain. Someone, or something, has been draining it. I would like to know who, how, and how much.

You have read-only access to our finance database and to everything on this board. Some evidence folders are sealed for now. I will unseal them once you have answered each question.

Please be discreet. The villa has ears.

How this investigation works

  • Open folders (Case Brief, Suspects, Chart of Accounts, Query Cheat Sheet) can be used at any time.
  • Sealed folders open for the whole room when the facilitator unseals them. Each one comes with new database tables.
  • Each act has one question. When your team has an answer, tell the facilitator and show the rows that prove it.
  • Nobody wins. Share theories and help other teams. Borrowing a finding is fine if you say where it came from.
  • The database knows the numbers. Accounting knows what they mean. You will need both.
