Shifty: Welcome back to the exciting class trial!
Lifty: Are you ready to know who the killer is?
Shifty: I know I am! The suspense is killing me!
Lifty: Oh I know... and I bet all of you are just as excited as me to find out!
Shifty: So, without any more interruptions! Enjoy as our cute and cuddly animals brutally kill each other!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sniffles: So, what do you people plan to do now? My innocence has been proven so you're out of luck.
Toothy: So, if Sniffles isn't the killer, then who is?
Handy: It's clearly one of us. As if that wasn't obvious already.
Flippy: We can narrow it down based on what we know. It can't be Lammy since Mole was her target and Sniffles was reading in his room last night.
Petunia: Oh, how great. We spent two hours only to eliminate two people as suspects. What amazing progress.
Giggles: Hmm, do we even still have any more clues left to work with?
Cuddles: Well... what about the note? It was fake, right? Couldn't we just check everyone's handwriting for who wrote it?
Handy: No, that wouldn't work, the killer could just easily fake their handwriting now.
Flippy: ...Then what about blood?
Handy: Huh? What are you talking about?
Flippy: When Sniffles was being accused, I couldn't help but think about what Nutty said.
Sniffles: When has Nutty ever said anything useful?
Giggles: He just proved your innocence and that's all you have to say to him? Would it kill you to show a bit more appreciation for him?
Sniffles: ...Oh.
Toothy: But why? What did Nutty say?
Flippy: Well... he said "How did it feel to get his blood over you", right?
Handy: So what? Nutty is just being a weirdo again.
Nutty: Ehehe...
Handy: My point is proven.
Cuddles: What does this even have to do with the murder?
Flippy: Umm... let's say Sniffles did kill Mole, framed Nutty, wrote a fake note, and left, he would have been soaked in blood, right? Wouldn't that be a bit obvious?
Giggles: What if it had dried?
Flippy: Even if it had, are you saying that there would have been no evidence at all? It's not like he could go to sleep or go anywhere without leaving some amount of blood.
Petunia: What if the killer just washed it off in the pool?
Shifty: Hehehe, it's funny seeing everyone fight about something you're not even right about!
Petunia: Huh? What are you talking about?
Lifty: Oops, guess we spilled the beans, huh?
Shifty: As a reward for getting this far... we'll give you this, we lock all the doors at nighttime.
Toothy: You do!?
Pop: But the rules said that-
Shifty: Some of the rules are excused if you're committing a murder, but not all of them.
