Shifty: Now then, let's begin with a very basic explanation of the very exciting class trial!
Lifty: During the class trial, you'll argue and debate over who the killer is and vote for them at the end.
Shifty: If you pick correctly, only the blackened will be punished.
Lifty: But if you pick the wrong one...we'll punish all of you and the killer gets to leave.
Lammy: Well, where should we even start?
Petunia: I just want to know who did it...
Flippy: M-Me too! Why would someone kill two people? Losing one more of us is bad enough but killing two people!? It only makes it worse knowing that a baby was one of them...
Handy: Calm down, that's what we're here to find out.
Cuddles: But, what should we even talk about first? Even if this is our third class trial, I'll never get used to doing these...
Handy: Well, the first thing we should figure out is who we know the killer can't be.
Handy: Obviously, Russell and I didn't do it because... Well, y'know, plus we were together the entire time last night and can confirm each other's alibis.
Cuddles: Man, what are you two doing when you're together?
Handy: Doesn't matter, so unless anyone can prove us wrong, neither one of us can be the culprit.
Toothy: Well, it can't be Mime or Flippy since they were the first two to see Giggles's body.
Handy: So that leaves Flaky, Petunia, Cuddles, Lammy and Toothy are our final suspects.
Flippy: But, how are we gonna figure out which one of them did it?
Handy: Well. we know the murders had to have happened last night as Mime and Flippy found them just after the morning announcement.
Handy: So, what were you all doing last night?
Cuddles: Me and Toothy were in the pool just hanging out, and since we were there together, we have our alibis!
Toothy: Yeah...
Petunia: I was just in the cafeteria for a little bit with...Cub.
Cuddles: Huh? You were? What happened to him then!? Don't tell me you-
Petunia: N-No! Of course I didn't murder Cub! Do you really think I'd kill a baby!?
Handy: Then you better start explaining.
Petunia: Like I said, I was in the cafeteria with Cub when Giggles came downstairs and said she was done working and that she wanted to head to bed with Cub.
Flippy: She did?
Petunia: Yeah...
Handy: So, you were the last person to see Giggles and Cub alive?
Petunia: I think so...
Petunia: H-Hey! You're not suspecting me, are you!?
Cuddles: Don't blame us, you have a suspicious alibi!
Toothy: C-Cuddles, what's gotten into you?
Cuddles: I-I...I don't want to do this but...we have to, it's the only way to survive! And I don't want to die!
Lammy: Huh?
Handy: Well, we can't go on and blindly suspect each other.
Russell: I don't think Petunia be thy killer.
