I don't know about you but I'm ready to dive in to today's episode. Tonight we'll see what everyone thinks of their housemates. We'll find out what the first challenge will be. And maybe if we're lucky we'll Get a CLUE or two along the way.
First things first, let's hear straight from the contestants what some of their first impressions of each other and the game are.
After a night of fun, we're all set for an exciting day at the house. Everyone woke up this morning full of anticipation for the competition to officially begin. Mr. Black is expected to deliver the directions for the first challenge at any time. But the burning question on everyone's mind has to be: Who will play the part of the victim in this game?
APRICOT: I can't believe he's dead.
VIOLETTE: Oh! This is it isn't it?!!! Apricot, who's dead?!
APRICOT: Detective Gills!!!
VIOLETTE: ... ... ... Ummm... Who is that?
APRICOT: He was our fishy. He jumped out of his bowl or something. I hope no one dumped him out on purpose.
At this point Apricot begins to sob uncontrollably, and Violette realizes that this is not the mystery crime they're all going to be trying to solve.
VIOLETTE: So, I tried to cheer her up, but I couldn't help laughing a little after she'd walked away. I mean, it was a cute fish, but don't you think it's kind of ironic that she's so upset about a fish when we're here to solve a "murder"? Although maybe that's her plan. No one would suspect her even to be capable of murder.
Shouldn't Mr. Black have been here by now?
Is the first challenge going to be in the middle of the night?
Did Mr. Black forget? Or is something else going on?
Naturally everyone drops what they're doing and heads to the table in the entryway. Excitement can be seen on seven of the eight faces in the room.
But Billie doesn't get to finish her sentence, because something unbelievable happens. Only one of our group sees it at first, and it gives her the fright of her life.
Before everyone even processes what they're seeing, the table settles back on the ground. And something appears, seemingly out of thin air.
Everyone, even Rider, makes their way hastily to the top floor.
Billie is back in just a few minutes.
BILLIE: Alr-right f-folks, w-we're o-out of t-time -
MR. BLACK'S GHOST: Biiiillieeeee... cheerful, remember?
BILLIE: How was that?
MR. BLACK'S GHOST: Perfect.
