Yeah, as per this explanation. Which is too bad, because Audrey would be able to go back to get that super-expensive metal.

Also, they wouldn't be about to die horribly by madness worm.

Maybe they can convince giant Grover there to run for president.

I am a little bit confused, why did they plan to create another candidate, I thought the Old Lady was going to be the second decoy?

I don't think anyone, even the old lady, was buying that just standing next to an open manhole counted as an act of superb heroism.

At least Trixie and Uncle Juju can bond over their taste in wine.

Although knowing Thorsby there's going to be some mix-up where the snake gets milked and its venom ends up in the wine glass somehow, and before you know it half the cast is piled up unconscious in various closets while the other half run around making excuses to the Inquisition.

I was expecting the Inquisition to be some kind of terrifying holiday. It didn't occur to me that's just what they call the debates, but it makes perfect sense.

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.

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.

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.

That's what I thought would happen, it's cool he can mess with the expectations he created like that though.

Speaking of hijinks, there's the snake! It only knocks people unconscious, but he's gonna die somehow anyway.

Hank should have just kept Eliza-ing. I'm starting to wonder if Hank will die too (maybe while trying to bluff his way through snake-handling), and then they have to deal with an investigation into Julius' death while still trying to hide the real Julius' death.

Actually that would be a tidy way to wrap this all up. Everyone will think Julius is dead, so they don't have to worry about keeping up the charade long term.

But it would mean losing Hank Genocide, and that's unacceptable.

Lyndon, Audrey is indeed the best, but what you're doing here is inevitably going to end in disaster. You are going to be creating an illusion and get distracted by Audrey, and then you're going to have to deal with the fallout of creating a naked Audrey illusion in front of her.

His beer didn't turn into a naked woman when Audrey started yelling about strippers, so he's probably fine.

...no, who am I kidding, that is exactly what will happen. And then Audrey just laughs her rear end off at him.

Maybe mindless undead perform all manual labor in Diabolica.

I was going to say that can't possibly be right, but then I realized the last few "Uncle Juju" strips were all about who's sleeping with/wants to sleep with who, so maybe it was setting that up.

I'm suspicious of this guy. Partly because he makes all these wild claims and even Klara hasn't heard of his species, but mostly because he's Elf Hobo Captain Planet.

Man, the party's not in a great position here. Lyndon doesn't have his spells, Audrey doesn't have her sword, and Klara doesn't have any knowledge of this species.

And even worse, she lost her hat.
