Something’s Afoot! [Official Meh-rathon Investigation Thread]
4Fictional folks are up to no good in the text of this week’s Meh-rathon! Watch for these Official Investigation Threads to chat with fellow gumshoes rather than having your brilliant insights lost forever in a product post. Let’s get to the bottom of this!
So who among you, in all of your daily deal retail hubris, thinks you have this one figured out already??

@llangley This cat is elegant and not wrong.
He stabbed himself. He was tired of all the crazies surrounding him.
@jaybird same, tbh
Depends. Did the eccentric billionaire McAllen, by any chance, call his mansion the Orient Express?
@rockblossom Asking the real questions
I’m going with Terrance Hynes, the Butler who never got a raise.
Why? Well, I’m assuming Dave didn’t write this, one of the people working for him did… And they’re subtlety requesting a raise by intimidation.
@OnionSoup This worked in Hamlet.
Do we have a list of suspects? I’m wondering if this wasn’t a staged suicide using a body double.
@pakopako This seems like a perfect spot to start compiling a list of suspects…
It was clearly the leap year butler.
Remember:
The Mystery of Al Capone’s Vault
Geraldo killed McAllen for the ratings
@lonocat hey, spoilers!
It was Captain Mustard in the observatory with the lead pipe.
@gramtofour4 this feels right
@gramtofour4 I believe it is Colonel mustard(Unless he got demoted)
April Fool’s, the real killer is diabetes
@mikey What about hypertension?
We’re probably going to learn he died of natural causes before being “killed” by half the products in the Mehrathon. And every single one of the suspects attempted to kill him at least once (only he was already dead).
Fart spray is the likely killer.
Hilda poisoned the food. She used the fart spray to fake her illness and then climbed out the bathroom window to murder… um… the guy… the billionaire… you know…
IRK Stuffie did it. Suspicious that he keeps coming back. A true sign of guilt.
@heartny first you see him with a knife, then making his getaway on a motorcycle
@heartny @lonocat I haven’t been keeping too close an eye; has the body been found defiled by the stuffie yet?
The deed was actuallty done by Arlington Plano, whom no one suspects because he was using an assumed name and a fake mustache to get into the party by posing as a caterer.
The killer was inside of us all along.
@medz the killers were all the people we met along the way
Marge Roper, a bracelet model. Don’t make wrist-y jokes.
@cprimrose or charming
I’ve been assuming it’s Gemma Harrison, the lady who has no motive of which we know.
@mossygreen Damn it, it autocorrected. It’s Harrilson, I think?
I’m leaning towards Adam Seanison, the angry copywriter.
@Kyeh Nice.
Oooo! I seem to be right - except the night isn’t over yet, so maybe it’s another red herring. Maybe it’s IRK Sadie herself …
@Kyeh Or are you?
We have to wait a whole half hour to find out!
@mossygreen The previous Irk stuffie did have a knife in its hand …
@Kyeh I thought it was funny that he bought everything on ugh dot com
@mossygreen @heartny
Well, we were both wrong!
I could think of a few good candidates for him, though …
Congrats.
Damn, that’s who I was hoping it was. No really.
@cprimrose It’s a classic introduced-in-passing background character!
@cprimrose
Congrats to you, I guess!
@mossygreen posted about Murder by Death and this had the same premise. Kudos.
