MOCK TRIAL

[mostwantedfrog]

[Once the house has been thoroughly investigated, Constantine appears again, his pet penguin following close behind him.]

You have found all that you have needed? Excellent. Now, you must come with me to the basement--it is time for a trial.

[He hops away, and if you follow him into the basement, you'll notice that the boarded-up hole in the wall has been cleared away to reveal a winding tunnel. It's not very big--the humans might have to crawl in order to get in. Once you've gotten through the tunnel, you'll find yourself in a massive cave, filled with stalactites and stalagmites. Boober might recognize it. The rocks here have been haphazardly rearranged to resemble a circular trial room. Constantine himself jumps up onto a very high stack of rocks off to the side, staying out of harm's reach.]

Now, your job is to find whoever killed--eugh, what was her name--Carolina or something. The chicken. If you find out who did it and vote for them, the murderer will be destroyed, and you will all go free. But if you get it wrong, which I am fully expecting....

[Constantine chuckles to himself.]

I will destroy you all, and finally take my revenge on all you Mappets.

[He sits back a little, waiting for the discussion to start.]

[TRIAL START!]

[Komaeda's here and he rolls up his sleeves, revealing his arms which are free of injuries.]

What a despair filled day we're having here!

[.......] What a terrible thing to say!

[biggerbadge]

...who is this man.

[its_not_fair]

[She was wondering this, too... but didn't want to say something in case she'd just missed him in all the confusion of this awful week.....]

[shslmuppet]

I'm the guy who runs on the giant hamster wheel in the super secret room to give you electricity~!

[biggerbadge]

...show us your ankle. I believe you to be Count Olaf in disguise.

[With Jean saying that, Komaeda gets down on all fours, hissing and growling at him. He then jumps onto the ceiling and opens one of the vents, crawling back into his secret hidey hole, never to be seen or heard by anyone ever again.]

[its_not_fair]

Who is this Count Olaf you keep accusing people of being?!

[biggerbadge]

He is a very foul debutant.

LOL

[its_not_fair]

I've never heard of him. Do you not know what he looks like?

[theabjectauthor]

[again, from outside, a loud voice can be heard over the winter winds. he's back again. on snowshoes. he got a little lost, okay]

I THOUGHT I MADE IT QUITE CLEAR THAT COUNT OLAF IS NOT CONTRACTUALLY APPEARING IN THIS PARTICULAR STORY. IF HE WERE, YOU WOULD HAVE A MUCH MORE CAPABLE AND LESS FRUSTRATING NARRATOR, SIR.
