Before Cyan opens the button to release Pink, Lime speaks up.

Lime: Wait! I can vouch for Pink! She's innocent! And so is White!

Everyone stops what they are doing. White calms down. Lime explains himself.

Lime: I was in Admin fixing wires, and Pink was also with me until she came here to the cafeteria to upload files. While in Admin, I heard Brown and White talking nearby. He told her to stay put while he went to Oxygen to clean the filter.
Upon hearing this, White snivels.
Lime: I'm not sure what happened after that because I went to Communications, but from what I saw and heard, I'm very certain that White is innocent.
Black: You have a solid alibi. I just need to confirm. Pink, is this true?
Pink: Yes! I was actually on my way back to Admin when you reported the body.
Although she's still crying and her voice is still shaky, White has calmed down enough to speak.
White: I'm sorry everyone. What Lime said is true. I did offer to come with Brown, but I did what he said and stayed in Navigations. Well, I did leave to look for him, (sniffle) but the body was reported before I could make it there.
Black is suspicious of Pink, but decides to let everybody go until he is certain.
Black: We'll skip voting for now, but we mustn't keep our guard down. I need everyone to stay on the lookout for the killer.

Everyone nods, and nobody is ejected.
