Yo, peep this freaky-ass footprint, bigger than my damn head! Gotta be the killer's, right?
CookieBad
jinkies, that sound catchy
Yeah, yeah, it’s Jinkies time! Gotta catch this killer, you know what I’m sayin’? Gotta solve this murder mystery before the cops do!
CookieBad
Velma can I ask you something?
Shoot, girl! What's on your mind? Lay it on me!
CookieBad
We’re like family right? And your best friend Fred always calls you “Queen of the Nerds”
Oh please, don't get me all worked up with that nonsense. Just call me Velma, okay? No need for all those titles.
CookieBad
Okay well as Queen of the Nerds, I have a rule, if you see someone more nerdy than you challenge them to an IQ test
Alright, alright, I hear ya! But listen up, I ain't no nerd queen or whatever. I'm just a regular girl who knows how to solve mysteries, ya dig?
CookieBad
You know all those comic book stores in Coolsville? Yeah no problem.
Listen, I may not be the smartest person around, but I've got street smarts, you know? And I can solve a mystery like nobody's business.
CookieBad
Well Nerds 1-2-3 test time. Sherlock Holmes, Nancy Drew and Agatha Christi would be proud.
Hmph, IQ test or not, I bet I can solve this mystery before anyone else. Just watch me, CookieBad!
CookieBad
Okay so the big picture, Jade was murdered by Cobra in the gothic conservatory, enter door frame here, big swoosh curtain, real Dracula castle vibe, closed off room, one way in and one way out. Case closed right?
Wrong! We don't know anything yet, CookieBad. There could be secret passages, hidden evidence, or even disguises that we haven't seen.
CookieBad
Perps motive, revenge. Did Jade steal something from Cobra or per se?
Listen, I've been thinking about this for a minute now, and I think Jade might have stolen something from Cobra. Maybe it's some kind of sensitive information or even a valuable artifact.
CookieBad
Next scene, Daphne driving fast to cemetery looking for Vince’s grave
Hold up, hold up! I know where Daphne's going, but she's going about it all wrong.
CookieBad
You were saying?
Look, if Daphne is trying to find Vince's grave, then maybe there's something important hidden there.
CookieBad
Why would Daphne take off without saying anything? Didn’t even say goodbye! What an bitch!
Chill, CookieBad! Daphne's probably just trying to find some answers on her own, you know? But we can't let her go alone.
CookieBad
Agreed, why did Jade and Vince fight? If they were dating why did Jade start going out with Cameron? Sounds to me like Daphne revenge killed Jade.
Whoa, whoa, hold up! You're jumping to conclusions here, CookieBad. We don't know the whole story yet. Let's not accuse anyone without the facts.
CookieBad
Geez Velma calm down, this isn’t rocket science. Sounds to me like Daphne killed Jade and Vince’s unfinished business was the motive. Sound right to you Velma?
Hey, hey, hold up! You can't just accuse Daphne of murder without any solid evidence! We need to find proof before we make any accusations.
CookieBad
Well most likely true, Okay solved, Daphne and Velma run home. Jasper, CookieBad, Velma and Daphne find coffin chains missing on cemetary entrance. Daphne and Velma not far behind.
Wait a sec, hold up! Jasper found the coffin chains missing at the cemetery entrance. This means someone may have tampered with the grave!
CookieBad
Okay sounds about right, if Daphne wanted revenge and to keep Jade dead she most likely would’ve chained the coffin, unless she had help?
Bingo! You hit the nail on the head, CookieBad!
CookieBad
Well said, you’re pretty witty sometimes, Meow
Heh, thanks, CookieBad! But let's not dwell on that. We've got more important things to figure out.
CookieBad
So looks like our suspect is alive and at large with possible accomplice
Yeah, you're right, CookieBad. We need to track down any potential accomplices and find out who helped Daphne. Let's split up and cover more ground.
CookieBad
Sounds good, so about yesterday at Coolsville pool party when Daphne came running saying she left her underwear and you went running after her thinking she was going to change and then someone shot a murder ray gun killing Jade, timeline correct?
Yeah, that's right. Daphne suddenly ran off, claiming she left her underwear behind.
CookieBad
Guess we gotta find her! And almost certainly find her underwear, what would be someone else’s motive?
Hold up, hold up! It's not just about finding Daphne's underwear. We need to think about other motives too.
CookieBad
Daphne ran off Coolsville pool to change her underwear, almost got her head blown off killing Jade
Alright, alright. Let's think about this. If Daphne ran off to change her underwear and almost got her head blown off, then it's possible that someone wanted her dead. Maybe she saw something she shouldn't have or stumbled upon some important information. We need to find out who exactly was at that pool party and see if anyone had a reason to kill Jade.
CookieBad
Looks like our villain goes in disguise, sneak attack stealth mode
Yeah, you're right, CookieBad. This villain might be using disguises and stealth tactics to hide their true identity.
CookieBad
This case might be to big for us to bite off…
Aw, come on, CookieBad! Don't sell ourselves short. We've faced tough cases before and always come out on top.
