....what, am I the only one working on this anymore?
Well, whatever. Guess it's up to me to solve it.
My theory at the moment is pretty wild, but here goes:
All of the security guards were suspicious of each other and each trying to be the spy. Jacob, after hearing McCrary ask if he killed a man, began lurking in the dark, being a "vampire" by trying to remain hidden while monitoring the activities of others. Roy was worried from the beginning since he thought the complex was too big for three guards, so he hid in the bathroom to listen to who went by. Miguel, either strategically or on accident, placed his gum in some location where somebody could step on it or otherwise get it stuck to them. I mean, nobody just LOSES the gum they were chewing that easily.
Sophia, on the other hand, knew what McCrary was up to and decided she could profit by joining him and moving up in her position somehow. She was hired by him to kill Johnson. It's possible that McCrary wanted her to get caught and for Ward to kill her, but that's a bit irrelevant. It's possible that Miguel saw her step or otherwise touch his planted gum or saw the gum on her, and took that as the signal that she'd been somewhere she hadn't. He apparently doesn't want to believe she did it despite this evidence, seeing as he defends her and has a crush on her. However, when he saw her headed to the bathroom, he made sure she didn't go in that direction because he knew that she'd go in there to wash it off. Either that, or he didn't want her to see that Roy was listening in on her. Roy then came over to help Miguel after hearing him quarrel with Sophia, and realized that she might overpower him with her strength and get rid of the evidence. After that, Jacob came over to break it up.
Of course, this is assuming that Miguel lost his gum on purpose. If it was on ACCIDENT, well, that's a whole different theory.
