Second Trial

[Once everyone makes it the portrait gallery again, they will hear Randall's voice echo through the room.]

I'm not sure what everyone expected. There are a lot of children here and given the situation it was only a matter of time they started dying.

[Charming.

The floor descends once again as Randall begins his speech.]


Our tour begins here in this gallery where you gaze upon the sweet innocence of youth. Ah, but things are not always as they seem. Can it be this room is actually stretching? And notice this: this chamber has no windows and no doors, which offers you this chilling challenge… to find a way out.

Of course, there’s always my way.

[The floor stops again and doors open to the trial room.

At least the trial room doesn't look terribly different, although there are strange burn marks in the summoning circle now. And now, along with Mim, now Woody and Noby's podium has a lit candle and a voodoo doll resembling them (which is perhaps a little redundant in Woody's case).

Randall is already standing within the summoning circle, holding his stick with Facilier's head on it.]


Now then, I hope everyone has fun today.

[Trial Start]

You have a distorted idea of 'fun'.

[Leia stands at her podium, heavy-hearted, and looks around the circle as everyone shuffles in.]

One of the people in this room murdered a child. If you have any decency whatsoever, you'll give yourself up now and make this less painful for the rest of us.

[It's only been the second time he's had to do it, but already it's starting to feel like a chore.

Arrow drags himself to his podium, and stares at Randall.]


I don't do fun.

Anyone know what this is?

[He holds up the broken sky tile.]

It was under the kid's body.

[ Those burn marks are worrying. Not really the time for that though.

Basil scrambles up his podium, same as last week.
]

...Did anyone happen to find some sort of. animate rock, anywhere? I found the eye-creature in the casino, but the boy had two pets... and the eye-creature at least was very distressed. I can't help but think the rock's in no better state.

[ He feels these aren't exactly the best priorities, but the eye-thing was so sad. ]

Now that we're talking about those bruises, where was Noby found? I think I heard someone say he was at the bottom of the stairs, is that true?

[Because if so, maybe...]

Then maybe those bruises weren't made with Rocky. Noby may have been pushed down the stairs.

[Louis appears to be deep in thought when he speaks up.]

While we're ruminatin' on um, what happened to N-Noby, um...I though it's important to mention that, um, I found some...blood in the sink. Upstairs, in the bathrooms. And, um, Kit mentioned that the k-killed might've tried to wash their hands recently....

[He trails off for a moment.] I, I think it might be good to check people's hands and see if they're clean or not. Anyone good at sniffin' things out?

RESULTS

[Rémy doesn't seem certain this led anywhere, but he went through the hassle of smelling people, so now he's going to announce what he found out. Let's see...]

Soos and Jane are the ones that stand out the most...

[...buuuuut...]

...but it doesn't really mean either of them are the killer. I mean, it's natural to want to be clean, so let's not point fingers at them unless there's something else making them suspicious, okay?

[This is far from being decisive evidence of any kind, it's more like a footnote, but if it was of help to you guys...]

CATHERD

Alright, everyone, I think we're all having some trouble processing all of this.

[She pinches the bridge of her nose. It's clear that she's in the same boat.]

Let's go over what we have so far, it might help us get a new perspective.

Noby's body was found near the bottom of the stairs. He had bruises all over, and a wound in his head. His pet rock and that piece of the 'sky' were found nearby. The panel was broken, too.

There was a footprint on the bottom of the stairs, that looks small enough to be a kid's. Upstairs, there was blood in the sink, yes? And paper towels in the trash?

What else...the scratches on the bedroom doors, and the broken furniture. Am I missing anything, here?

Injury check

I'll inspect the men and boys, then.

Everybody, line up. Let's make this quick.
