Poor Don. It seems he's an easy suspect to a small town since he's a newcomer. It does seem rather suspicious that as soon as the power is out two people get injured. Maybe the future posts could have fewer characters? It was a little hard to keep track of all of them and remember who was who.

Thanks so much for your review and comments. It's hard for me to keep track of everything, too. I should make a chart. There will be more about Don in the next scene. He isn't exactly who he appears to be. judi
Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hello Judi.
It appears that all of the actors in the play have put on their sleuth clothing and they're all attempting to solve the crime. In the meantime, two other suspected crimes turn out not to be crimes.
Search the care of says that everybody will be saved, that tells me something's going to be happening very soon.

Comment from Judy Lawless
Lou is right, this case is getting stranger and stranger, judi. :) This melodrama is full of mystery. There are so many questions unanswered, but I'm sure you will soon reveal some of them. Great job in keeping us engaged.

Thanks so much for your review and comments. The information will continue to dribble out. I'm working on the next scene now. judi
Comment from Elizabeth Emerald
Brisk pace, colorful characters, and snarky banter--very punny--a stab in the dark--I hope you can post the next scene soon so as to keep up the momentum. Well done.

Comment from Jay Squires
I agree with Lou. The case IS getting stranger and stranger. Madge's injury was just that, Madge's injury, But Barry's clunk on the head had an outside cause. (God, I'm good at the obvious!)
I've been wondering about this play. I figured I might have simply overlooked its posting, but when I read it today, it seemed like there was no progress in the investigation.
I do get a kick out of this play.

Comment from royowen
It's funny when funny things start to happen, even the cast are starting to accuse an "out of Towner" anything but themselves, a smart-fart like Arlo doesn't help either. You're building an excellent case here Judy, and writing a fine script, as always, well done, blessings Roy

Judi,
It's clear that your mystery 'whodunnit' script is going well. I think you've got THIS reader hooked as well as completely confused. I have no idea who may be the guilty party.
I always enjoy these pieces - keep it up!

Very good. Classic who done it stage play.
notes:
[Don: ] (He looks at BARRY'S head.) He's bleeding a bit. I'll see what I can do. (He puts some antiseptic on BARRY's head and puts a bandage on.) That'll do for now, but you both should see a doctor.
[(Clint:] I don't know what I'm gonna do with you people.

[Don:] That's the candleholder that goes on the table in Mrs. Dogood's living room.
