Monophone: Find out the killer and live, or don't and everyone will die. 

Paintbrush: YOU DIDN'T EVEN GIVE US A MONOFILE, THOUGH!!!!

Monophone: I didn't want to this time!

Marshmallow: That's not fair. You're turning into an kid, Monophone!

Monophone: Alright, alright. The person in the magic box died at 8 pm, and the cause of death was the dumbbell! YOU HAPPY NOW?!?!

Paintbrush: Yes, but why would the body be burned?

Fan: Maybe they wanted the body to be unrecognizable, so they wouldn't be caught.

Knife: Yeah, and maybe the burning and the saw were like double-tapping the body.

Marshmallow: Why would they use the box, though?

Paintbrush: Simple, they wanted to hide the body.

Knife: No, why would the blackened use a cabinet to hide themselves?

Fan: Maybe it's because they wanted to make the trial harder.

Paintbrush: Don't be so sure yet. Anyone could've killed Trophy.

Marshmallow: Thank you! Now we know that everyone here is likely a culprit.

Person in the Cabinet: I have an alibi, and Baseball can prove it...

Baseball: I was hanging out with both of them, so that did nothing...

Knife: Nuh uh! You just put yourself at the top of the suspect list!

Baseball: I went to my room afterwards, and Marshmallow saw me, right?

Marshmallow: Yes, and that was at 6:30. So, Baseball is not the culprit.

Paintbrush: I hung out with Microphone until 5:00, but went to my room at 7:30.

Fan: I stayed up all night watching Hamilton.

Everyone else: Bruh-

Fan: I have an alibi, right Knife?

Knife: I watched the first act with him, then I left to exercise.

Baseball: So that means that you killed one of them!

Knife: No, the dead person could've accounted for me. Isn't that right, Microphone?

Person in the Cabinet: *Lightbulbs voice* Believe me, everyone! I am not the culprit!

Paintbrush: ...you...you...YOU!!!!!

Person in the Cabinet: *Nickels voice* I'm just hiding from the real culprit.

Baseball: HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT NICKEL LIKE THAT!!!

Person in the Cabinet: *Balloons voice* I just can't let the culprit know my true voice!

Marshmallow: And why not?

Person in the Cabinet: *Cheesy's voice* Uh...um...

Knife: Just reveal yourself and I bet the culprit will reveal themselves, too!

*The cabinet door swings open. Out pops Trophy, still intact, still awesome as ever.*

Knife: YOU?!?!

Trophy: I watched you kill Microphone in front of my own eyes!!!

Fan: HUH?

Paintbrush: Le gasp!

Knife: WHAT! NO! I'D NEVER!

Paintbrush: That's not right. Knife couldn't have killed Trophy, due to his alibi.
