"A remote?" Great Dragon asked, seemingly confused by the new revelation. "Wait a sec... The remote... Could it be the same remote from the theater?"

"Wait... is it? Can any of ya theatre fellas see if it's the same?" He was clearly confused by this. "What the heck does that mean? Weren't y'all watching movies together the whole time? How the heck did it go unnoticed?! And why was it by the costume depot?!" He paused and took a moment to recompose himself, realising he was losing his composure.

"Wait, let's go from the start here. The kid had it with him at the start, right? The remote, I mean." He seemed to be referring to Adel. "So where'd he keep it when you three left? Did he take it with him or what?"

"The remote could also be from the soundstage. It makes sense that it'd have some mechanism for pulling sandbags and the like." Deirdre suggested. "... And it's probably not Adel's remote. I mean, how could that be relevant?"

"I thought we already explained the sandbags, though", Max replied, confused. "The flossy tripwire activated it after Rubes fell over 'em, and then they both fell down. You wouldn't need a remote for that, wouldja? Maybe somethin' else though, though I'm not sure what exactly in this trap needs a remote to get activated."

"S-so, umm... w-was there anything like... m-maybe like an emergency p-power shutoff remote f-for the soundstage...? M-maybe that's what the c-crushed thing was... s-someone obviously broke it on purpose... m-maybe so nobody would be able to... t-to help Ruby..."

"What I'm wondering is, when did the broken device get to where it did?" Ramon said. "I didn't investigate that area, was it easy to see?"

"The only thing I can think of is that someone used it outside the depot, threw it on the ground, fucked it up a bit and left it there. No other explanation as far as I know..." Luke shrugs.

"Weren't Ryleigh and Tsubasa inside the depot for a while? Wouldn't they have heard something like that?" Ramon asked. "Even if it was kinda easy to break, smashing it to bits would probably be noisy."

"What if it is the remote for the movie theater, but that's not all it was! What if it was secretly a controller for something or someone," Devin sketches up a picture.

"Maybe I should check the pieces out instead of our mechanic if all he can tell us is that it's not unlike a remote."

"That's a GUESS because this shit looks unrecognizable! It's literally scrap metal at this point!" Luke objects, waving the UMO around in the air for emphasis.

"W-well, is there anything else it c-could be...?" Tsubasa asked sincerely while scratching her head. "W-whatever it was, i-it must have been important... s-someone crushed it on purpose... r-right...?"

"Well, I can't see it if you just wave it around in the air like that, pass it here! Are you saying that you would typically be able to tel the difference between a crushed taser and a telephone, but just in this instance it's too difficult for you to?" Devin asks incredulously.

"Let's see, there's sensors, gameboys, electric razors, tape recorders..."

"Is it possible it belonged to Ruby?"

Woody nods along to the explanation. "Hmm...yes...So, I think I have, um, a suspect.." He says with a frown.

"As we've said, the process must have required both enough time and agility. Myrion could have overheard the plan to have the photoshoot at 5:35, and then set up everything, considering he was unaccompanied from 5:25-5:55. What's more, the last place he was seen was near the cafeteria..."

Myrion blinked a few times. "Wait... I'm suspicious again? Why has this happened during every trial so far?" He said, looking slightly dejected. "I can assure you I was actually charging the whole time! Um... Let's figure out this whole device thing before accusing anyone..."

"Well, isn't it possible that the device exactly has something to do with you? I guess you said you didn't have bluetooth or anything, didn't you, so maybe that's off the table," Devin scratches her head.

"I'm thinking recorder actually makes a lot of sense. Maybe that's how the killer eavesdropped."

Luke rolls his eyes and tosses the junk metal at Devin. The throw is a bit too strong. "Have fun with that, buddy."

Devin does her best to catch the device, but it falls to the ground. She sighs.

"Well, I don't know if that was called for. I'm like an IT professional and shit. I have like a real basis for wanted to take a look at the thing. I apologize for provoking you I guess? I don't know if that was the alcohol doing the acting."

Devin turns it over in her hands.

"Hmm..."

"It was found near the dressing room, right?" Roxie asked. "And if I remember correctly, you and Tsubasa were in there at one point. You could also be heard screaming... You guys get where I'm going with this, right?"

She slammed her fist on the podium in front of her. "Our mystery object has to be a vibrator! That's the only thing it can be!"

"I think Tsubasa's right. We should try to understand exactly what the killer did and then see if a device makes sense within that. The device feels like the answer to a question, not really a question within itself."

Devin flips the junk over in her hands.

"Hmm, I wonder..."

What Tsubasa said made Great Dragon's eyes widen open, like he just remembered something.

"Actually... There was something that Adel and Great Dragon didn't mention as we didn't really think it could be relevant to the murder. But now that you mentioned it, Basa..." The wrestler explained. "When we were setting up lights around the greenscreen, we ignored a ladder that's set up as it's not really in the way. So, the killer could have left via the vent after setting up the death trap. It's also possible that the ladder was used to help the killer set up the death trap."

"Oh that's a great point. So the killer could enter or leave through the vents in that room. I didn't realize that we had no explanation for that."

Devin adds a note in her notebook.

"Ramon, you got any wild theories? Maybe we need some inspiration."

"Wha?" Ramon was caught off guard, being directly called out like that. You could almost hear the gears churning in his head as he considered the question.

"You know, we've all watched movies before, right?" he finally said for some reason. "So I think we all know what I mean when I say, sometimes you just kinda zone out at the cinema, right? We've all been labouring under the assumption that being together in a group in the movie theatre gives you a perfect alibi, but what if someone could sneak off while everyone else was engrossed by the movie? A perfect opportunity and a perfect alibi, all in one! Plus it answers one of the questions we were having, about how the killer knew to set up a trap in the soundstage specifically. They knew because they'd met Adel, Ruby and Great Dragon in the theatre just previously, and knew where they'd left to! If you look at the map, the theatre and soundstage are very close together if you travel via the vents, making the whole process that much quicker."

"So... If what Ramon's saying is that one of the theatergoers is lying that they were watching the movie the entire time..." Great Dragon said as he ponders over Ramon's reasoning. "Then either Woody, Deirdre or Roxie is lying."

"The time it takes to do what you mentioned is very tight. They'd have to leave the theater, get the death trap set up and get back to the theater before Devin and Max arrives." The wrestler reasoned.

"What Rammy's also saying is that they'd have to use the theatre vent, which we know wasn't tampered with at all", Max pointed out. "So if they didn't go that way, they'd hafta use another vent to get there, which'd be more time consumin' to do anyhow..."

He shook his head. "Anyway, I think ol' G.D has a point with the ladder thing. Was that even found durin' the investigation? Not sure if that was mentioned or not, but if it wasn't, that might mean the killer took it with them... somehow. Heck, with that and the strange machine bein' tossed away, I think that basically confirms that the killer tampered with stuff durin' the murder itself. And there's only one point I can think of where they had the opportunity to do that sorta thing... Yup, right after the power went out! While Dragon-man and the kid were waitin' for the power to come back on, Mr. Killerino descended from the vents with the ladder, took the weird machine thing and went back into the vents! They'd hafta be sneaky 'bout it,' course, and they only had a minute or so to do all that, but I think it'd be possible, at least!" He seemed proud of his suggestion.
