Week 4 - Trial



Week 4: Trial


It's dawn when the Sergeant calls everyone to the courtroom. Despite the early hour, the tribunes of the room are as full as the last two times, sleepy townspeople glaring and looking at the visitors with distrust. The Sergeant told everyone to get to their spots. Anyone who looks behind them, will see the bailiffs carrying Sting Eucliffe away, who is trying to resist them but doesn't seem to have enough strength to do that well.
"Don't worry about him. That guy ate a lot of ice and frost for reasons I don't understand, and now he has a very bad cold. I don't want him making everyone in this room sick, so he's excused. No, that's not a hint all of you should get sick to avoid these trials."

There are more podiums draped in black now. Clarisse, Eric Lecarde, and Jughead Jones have joined the dead, and their podiums look lonely without their occupants.

With a twirl of the gavel, the Sergeant recites:
"Today the trial will focus on solving the murder of..."

He takes a PDA out of his pocket, and holds it in the air. The PDA's text-to-voice software says: 'Forsythe'
"...Pendleton Jones the Third. The circumstances need no introduction, we all are aware of them. Here are your suspects"

            

Once everyone had a moment to see the faces in the photos, the Sergeant adds:
"By the way, there are two separate culprits today. Yes, two of these five people directly caused Jughead's death. When it's time to vote, remember to vote for two different people."

Let the trial begin.

Yeah. I'll shoot the old guy, someone else can take care of the lady.

[He's going to stop running for that, then he's back to flitting around.]

I don't mind handling both, but that sounds fair too.

As long as they are killed and we can stop acknowledging that they existed.

[Olympia is not designed to get embarrassed about needing seven hours to catch these idiots, but she's sure doing a good job approximating it.]

I mean we gotta wait for the bastard to choice too.

May I suggest the guillotine?

Not too sure how one of those would work so I guess someone else will have to do that.
