SUNDAY - FOYER - 1PM

[productions]

[At 1 PM, the grandfather clock in the foyer chimes. The display stand placed in the foyer last week is still there, but the card on it has been replaced by a new placard.]

Money isn't everything. There are just some things you can't buy, right? Whether it's because you can't afford it or because it simply doesn't exist yet, we all have that unfulfilled desire for something we just can't get a hold of.

Well, no longer! The kind folks at [illegible smudge] have been following your adventures in this mansion with eager eyes and have generously decided to fund your next incentive. In your rooms, you'll find an object you've been searching for: a priceless artifact, a lost treasure, a cure, a holy grail...nothing is beyond our reach. Whatever it is you want can now be yours for a low, low price. Of course, you'll only be allowed to remove and keep said object if you can get away with murder.

Popularity rankings have now been published in the drawing room, along with the extra prizes being given out this week! As always, culprits will receive the opportunity to retire OR one free requested item for use in future crimes. Culprits who choose not to retire will have the opportunity to compete for personalized prizes!

[If you open the cabinet in your room, you'll find that some of the liquor bottles have vanished to make room for an object you've been dying to obtain. If you haven't been looking for a specific object, whatever's in your cabinet can be something you didn't even know existed - a resurrection potion, a lost treasure, and so on. Cards with a description of the item have been provided if you don't recognize what is in your cabinet. You will not be able to remove the object or use it in any way unless you commit and get away with murder.]

[People who looked closely might have noticed Kanaya affected last week, a doll-like distance from the world around her. Now, she's a marionette, keeping her body into "relaxed" position only by sheer force of will.]

I really have to wonder just what kind of resources are going into this production. [Her jaw jerks up and down like her ventriloquist is getting oral assistance from someone kneeling on the floor next to the stool.]
