Of course I'm safe. I didn't have anything to do with what happened, so...
[...yeah, she did get at least one vote, but - she didn't get the majority. and as upset as she was by the accusations being flung around, she never really felt like she was in any actual danger, herself.
but the others... and manwol, who volunteered...]
...neither did Manwol though... I don't understand why people voted for her. Obviously the actual killer wouldn't have volunteered like that.
I know, but for a while, people were talking like...
[like she might have really done it. his expression tightens when she brings up manwol, though.]
I mean - I think... No, I don't know what the right choice would have been. I don't think there's a good option between voting for someone who volunteered but obviously didn't do it, and someone who didn't volunteer but seemed more suspicious, especially since we... didn't really manage to narrow it down far at all.
like what? she wasn't really too worried about herself. more than anything she was frustrated at not being able to figure out what happened and worried about the others whose innocence she wasn't as sure of.
but, she sighs.]
I feel like... maybe we were on the right track with the hint, but we just ran out of time.
Maybe, if... and I don't want this to happen again, but if it does... maybe we should plan to buy a hint immediately, once they'll take our vouchers? So we have more time to work on it...?
I don't know if the hints are really worth it, after what we got today. It's not like we can go back and tell if one of the items would have been more helpful, but...
Maybe... I don't know. Maybe on Monday we can pool our vouchers together and brainstorm things to buy before the trial.
I was thinking earlier, another tape measure might be good so we can start measuring things before people get back from investigations. Anything that would help us speed things along, right?
