I haven't seen her on the forum for some days. I think I'm going to have to call in a replacement.

I wonder if either Krypsyn or sunshinecorp scared her away... :P

Hope the replacement isn't easily afraid, given all the strange happenings of the last court (this one has remained rather normal so far).

WHY WOULD I SCARE ANYONE AWAY?
HUH? WHY THE %$&$% WOULD YOU SAY THAT!!!!
I'M RELAXED! I'M RELAXED!

The votes are in! Let's review what happened today.
After being duped by the red herrings, a good deal of the jurors were ready to burn the Puzzlemaster, while the prosecution was ready to burn literally everything. Tensions rose high as accusations flew everywhere, from the defendant, to the Puzzlemaster, to the prosecution, to the bagels. There was such a large amount of disagreement in the jury that the votes eventually came to a deadlock. Bler rose up to break this by changing his vote and asking to hear the coworker speak. The coworker, however, upon entering the courtroom, was frightened away by the advances of sunshinecorp. Fleeing from the area screaming loudly and flailing her arms in all directions, the prosecution decided to call in another coworker, this one a little less appealing to particular jurors.

The judge calls for silence! A hush falls on the courtroom!

The persecution calls this uhh...miss Zeo Goldilocks to the stand.
...she needs a shave and smells like horse dung.


...Whatever, if you need me I'll be in my office with my bagels.

And YOU need to lose a little weight, but you don't hear me whining, missy.
*ahem*
How can I be of service?

Now, before you even ASK me, because I know you will (I have much more prescience than that dear brother of mine), I met Darleen when she moved here in April, six months ago. She wasn't very talkative, but now and then she'd mention Krypsyn and how possessive he was.

Now, are you going to just stand there staring at the bagels, or are you going to ask some questions I CAN'T predict, dearie?

Hm, now there's a face I don't recognize coming into the court.
*flips through Mr. Wyrm's notes*
Oh, wait, it's that newbie guy that Amrit, Amrit, and Amrit hired. The court welcomes Mr. Spray V. War, esq. for the cross-examination!

Hello guys, I'm Mr. Spray V. War, esq., a rookie defense lawyer who has been assigned to the case to assist Mr. Amrit.

Did Ms. Dangerfield say it was Mr. DeLucce who was coming over that night?

They give me the rookie for my first appearance in court?
*rolls eyes*

No. She just said "my boyfriend." She might've said "ex-boyfriend" once. I don't remember.

If my darling brother over there doesn't stop snickering at my lack of entirely accurate memory, do remind him of that puzzle tournament in Toronto, hmmm?

So, she could have been expecting someone other than Mr. DeLucce.

I guess. Darleen didn't talk much about her love life.

May I be released, now? I have more important things to worry about than my darling brother and his little court trials.

VOTE MAINTAINANCE MAN AND HOPE THAT'S A SUPERHERO NAME.

Alright, time to get back at it. One juror busted his way in again and is no doubt about to clean out the cafeteria for a second time.

The judge bangs his gavel!
DAY 5 BEGINS NOW!
ALL RISE!
COURT IS NOW IN SESSION!

Now tell us more about it... :P

What a charming person, your sister(?) /sarcasm
(if you didn't say it was a she, I would have thought it was some drunk trucker who hadn't bathed for quite a few months)

And after witnessing her, I really wonder what ZeoGoats must be like, as he was the only one being denied by your whole family :P



And as expected, she didn't confirm whether or not Mr. DeLucce was the boyfriend Mrs. Dangerfield was going to meet that day.

Vote: Officer on Scene, Bathroom
