Mock Victim

[grimgrinningghosts]

[It’s Friday. Your first week stuck in Doomville is almost up. While Judge Doom’s motive was certainly big, it’s hard to judge, for lack of a better term, if he could manage to change anyone’s past, let alone your own. So maybe you forgot about it, or maybe you’re so caught up with the “what if’s” that it hangs over you as you wake up today.

However, as you leave your dressing room, you may find that the door to Edgar’s Room is mysteriously ajar. While it was open for investigation yesterday, it seems more open than it was yesterday.

Investigate?]

[ ...WELL BIANCA, THERE'S YOUR ANSWER. PERRY IS DEAD. ]

It would seem someone else took our captor up on his incentive.

Oh! Oh, that's horrible! The poor man. [he's a platypus but you know what she means] Why, we've got to do something about it!

[returntodarkness]

...I have a question. Did anyone bother to ask what happens to the rest of us if the culprit happens to get away with their escapades?

[ This is a headache waiting to happen. ]

Clearly we are punished for their wrong-doing as well.

[Basil looks thoughtful]

Investigations must take place.

[returntodarkness]

[ ...Of course people are coming in. ]

...A safe assumption.

[ He's not happy, he doesn't like helping people. ]

I'll handle the body. I'm a scientist--I can at least do that much.

[ ...Besides, he might actually enjoy being their resident corpse toucher. ]

Good. A thorough examination will help more in the case.
