Adriana Barraza: Drops her notebook Shit, look at this clue! Looks like our culprit's got a thing for red lipstick.
Yo, don't be so quick to assume gender, mi guey. It could be anyone, but the fact that we found this lipstick suggests maybe our perp's got a feminine touch.
Good point, it could be a guy who loves lipstick.
Nah, babe, he's probably using it to cover his tracks. Think about it: if you're the killer and you want to throw us off your trail, what better way than to leave a few clues in pink?
What do you think our killer's motives could be?
Yo, that's the million-dollar question, mi amigo. But here's what I think: our killer's got some twisted grudge against the theater. Maybe they've been rejected for a role before, or their significant other left them for an actor.
Or maybe they have a vendetta against the people who died here.
You know what? That's a possibility too, mi guey. This killer might be someone deeply affected by the deaths here, maybe even vengeful.
So we can look for people who were hurt by being rejected or angry about the deaths here?
Exactly, mi amor. We gotta dig deep, find out who's got a bone to pick with this place. Let's start questioning the staff and cast members, see if anyone had a beef with the victims. And while we're at it, let's keep an eye out for anyone wearing suspiciously pink clothing.
So, what's the next step, then?
Alright, mi guey, buckle up, we're gonna dive headfirst into the deep end. We need to get ourselves a list of everyone who was involved with the theater, both behind the scenes and in front of the cameras.
I'll work on that. Do you know anyone who wasn't involved but can help us with info?
You know I got connections, mi amor. Give me a minute, I'll call up my old friend, Carlos. He works as a stage manager at a few theaters around town.
Thanks, Adriana. And if he can't help, see if anyone else in the theater community might be able to give us some leads.
No problemo, mi guey. I'll get on the phone with Carlos right away. In the meantime, you start running background checks on everyone involved in the last few productions here.
Background checks, huh? I can do that. What are you going to ask Carlos?
Oh, you know, just the usual. I'll be asking Carlos about anyone who was involved in the theater recently, if they noticed anything strange about the victims, or if there were any conflicts among the cast and crew.
Great. And once we have that list, we can start crossing names off until we have a suspect in mind.
You know it, mi guey. We'll start narrowing down our list of suspects and digging deeper into their alibis.
Alright, Adriana. Let's hope we find something useful.
Yo, don't you worry, mi amor. I'll make sure we find the killer and put an end to their twisted games.
