You got me Thorsby. I was thinking "oh great, they're going to leave a note saying 'You're going to murdered' and then flee the area, not suspicious at all" until the last panel.

Possible Suspects: Jenny: Likely furious at her uncle's intolerance and manipulation, and the inheritance and housing could be factors too. Julius: Could he have killed himself out of spite? Everdark (via VP Wormrider or skrillex-haired spy woman): Make a huge scandal to take down her strongest opponent and turn Trixie's biggest weakness into an ongoing and much more dramatic news story. Trixie: We can't assume she's innocent just because she's the main character. She already lost her temper once to Julius, why not twice? Lyndon: Maybe the executioner was right all along. Could Lyndon be a fake pacifist and a great actor, feigning panic and surprise at the murder he just comitted? Zoozo: He has a strong sense of justice, he doesn't hesitate to murder wrongdoers, and he's easily suggestible. e: Klara: Loves Trixie, maybe enough to kill for her. Is she so autistic that she can't tell the difference between exasperation and a genuine desire for Julius' death? Audrey: Might be psycho enough to murder Julius just for fun. Especially if she has a scheme to get at his money. The Skyggemyrians: Their flag is literally a bunch of stabbing daggers. They almost certainly have a larger plan of which the scepter is just one part. Whatever it is, they're amoral enough to kill to make it happen.

Well, the engagement's probably off, now. Though, to be fair, advocating murder of your fiancee's family members on national TV is often enough to do that.

I don't think Lyndon's a likely suspect, since he was specifically named as an accessory to the murder. Plus he would probably be less surprised to find the body there. I'd bet on Barbara Everdark being behind it, probably after yelling at the vice president. All we can know for certain is that the snake whose venom just knocks you out is going to play a major role in this murder mystery slash comedy of errors. Possibly the technically illegal wine, too.

Maybe her uncle is just so loving rich she couldn't help herself and is now using Trixie as the perfect alibi. Being rich after her uncle keels over fought against being together with Trixie, and love lost. The ancient story.

It also conveniently gets her out of the way so that the implied future romance with Klara can begin.

Lyndon and Trixie really are the murderers. They were just rendered unconscious with some special snake venom and then they became somnambulant killers, having been previously conditioned while in an induced sleepwalking state to do the deed by whoever wanted Juju dead.

Alternatively: the police already caught the real murderer and know the whole story, but they're going to use that snake with the knock-out venom on her before she can even explain.

Hank Genocide is secretly working for the incumbent though, and is trying to make his client, Mr. Filthmaster, lose. Mr. Filthmaster just made a solid move towards victory. As far as anyone can tell, the darkbadgrimdark names are part of an as-yet unrevealed setting detail. My money is on a Dark Overlord who conquered the world and then fast forward a thousand years or so. Besides, one death is a tragedy, one million is a statistic. Genocide isn't done one at a time.

Because if the vote isn't split between him and Trixie then he'll win. Also, Barbara Everdark is ridiculously protected from murder. Best he'd manage to get would be killing her Vice President.

If Trixie is killed, then the suspects are Trixie's opponents -- that include him. But if someone that Trixie publicly threatened is killed, then he's not a suspect, but Trixie is.

I have a feeling these guys will try to weekend at Bernie's Juju's corpse out of there. So now we have Trixie and Lyndon being worried about the corpse, Trixie and Klara think it's all about that illegal wine and Hank and co try to smuggle out the corpse. Now all we need is Trixie's fiancee to come in at the worst possible time and it's peak thorsby.

I was hoping the misunderstanding between Trixie and Audrey would continue longer, as there would be a lot of potential for Thorsby shenanigans, but I'm sure there'll be many zany situations anyway.
