Suspicious Activity on Graystone Property is a The Caprican News article written by Sharon Edmonson. It was printed in Martius 28, YR42.

Story

Avid bird watcher Jane Contos was looking through the telescope set up on her back porch. She was tracking the path of a raptor as it flew over the lake behind her house when something caught her eye: Flames. Ms. Contos quickly called the police to report a fire on the Daniel [sic] and Amanda Graystone's property across the lake. The fire dissipated before Contos could get the Caprica City Fire Department on the phone so she hung up. But what she saw next we even [sic] more bizarre. "It looked like some kind of statue at first" said Contos, "like a gray or silver...thing. It looked kind of like that monster from that movie that terrorized Oranu." As there is no law against lawn statues, Contos didn't think much of it. But a few hours later, it was gone. "If I had a stronger telescope I could probably tell you more...but I know what I saw," she said.

Though the incident has not been confirmed (calls to the Graystones were not returned), strange things seem to be afoot with Caprica's first family these days. We at The Caprican will continue to keep you apprised of the situation as it unfolds.

Notes

This article ties into the events of Caprica's "Ghosts in the Machine", when Daniel Graystone attempts to confirm the presence of Zoe Graystone's avatar inside the U-87 Cyber Combat Unit prototype by surrounding it with a ring of fire in the Graystone Estate's backyard.
Contos' reaction to the U-87 is a callback to Amanda Graystone's reaction in Caprica's "Rebirth" after seeing it in Daniel's basement lab.
