[Eventually, when you are all gathered, the elevator jerks. Not in some Rod Serling Theme Park ride manner, but much more creaky. The elevator glides upwards, incredibly far up, before coming to a stop at a room you’ve never seen before.]

[The room shares a similar aesthetic to the control center, each portion of the wall covered in television monitors. They all display a bright blue screen at the moment, save for twenty additional monitors hanging from the ceiling like chandeliers. Each of those display the face of the good Doctor Eggman.

The only furnishings in the room are a table and chairs - the table is excessively long enough to seat all of you at the moment. Every chair corresponds to a different room, and each is marked with a nameplate corresponding to the room’s occupant. The unoccupied rooms are unmarked save for numbers, with no nameplates at all. Wilkins’ empty chair bares both his name, and a very ominous coffee scent.

In front of each chair are very small microphones kept in stands, just in case you need to speak up, as well as keyboards built into the table.

Once you are all seated, Doctor Eggman speaks.]

Now that you’ve all gathered, here are the rules! You must discuss the crime, and once you believe you have figured out your culprit, you may input their name in the keyboard in front of you! Take all the time you need, of course.

Failure to vote will result in your execution, and the same will follow should you fail to identify the culprit! How does that sound to you all?

Have you like seen the videos online? Where the alligator bites the other alligator's arm and does like this whole barrel roll and rips it right off without problem?

Totally think it's the crocodile dude.

Not that isn't extremely probably, but wouldn't be a less clean cut if it bit the arm off?

Maybe he didn't bite it off, he just ripped it really strongly off?

But the cloth was very jagged. If there was a blade, whoever was wielding it clearly didn't know what they were doing. I still say the croc is suspect.

If it was that jagged it does seem like brute force.

The crocodile does have the most strength of us. As far as I can tell.

Gosh, who would ever bite a man's arm clean off?

[What the fuck, where did that purple crocodile come from.]

[Bad Cop screams when he catches sight of Madam Mim in her new form.]

YOU--! SHE'S THE ONE!

[what evidence do you HAVE, officer]

[Poofs back into a human.]

Who, lil ol' me?

YES, YOU!

[Jabs a hand at her and gestures to the rest of the room.]

She's the perfect suspect! She can transform into whatever she want and get away with it!
