Miss Scarlett's Timeline:
6:00-6:15 Arrive at the party. Sit next to Ms. Lavender and Mrs. Peacock. If they have arrived. If they haven't then sit by yourself but leave room for them. Address Ms. Lavender by her first name, Hannah. Talk more to Mrs. Peacock than Ms. Lavender. You can talk about your parents, and your sister. You can say that you're a business woman but nothing else.
6:15-6:45 Dinner is served. Sit in your designated seat.
Dinner Dialogue: does not have to be followed exactly. It is just a guideline. Remain silent until Mrs. Peacock starts talking.
Mrs. Peacock: Well, I am Mrs. Peacock, for those of you I haven't met yet. I am used to being a husband as part of my husband's work and I'm perfectly comfortable with getting the ball rolling. I have no idea what we're doing here but I am determined to enjoy myself. Oops, I forgot we're not supposed to reveal anything about ourselves.
Mr. Green: I know who you are.
Mrs. Peacock: How do you know who I am?
Mr. Green: I live in Washington D.C. too.
Prof. Plum: So you're a politician's wife?
Mrs. Peacock: Yes, I am.
Prof. Plum: So, Colonel Mustard, are you a real colonel?
Col. Mustard: I am, sir.
Miss Scarlett: (amused) Are you going to let everyone know that you live in Washington, too?
Col. Mustard: How do you know this? Have we met before?
Miss Scarlett: (laughs) I have seen you before but you may not have seen me.
Mr. Green: Do you live in Washington D.C. too, Miss Scarlett?
Miss Scarlett: (taking a bite of food) I sure do.
Mr. Green: What about you? Are you a real Prince?
Prince Azure: Yes, sir. I also work as a Good Will Ambassador to my home country, Spain.
Ms. Lavender: Does anyone here not live in Washington D.C.?
Lord Orange: We do not.
Prof. Plum: Neither do I. I do, however, work for the United Nations.
Prince Azure: Another politician.
Prof. Plum: No, I work for the medical branch, the W.H.O. or the World Health Organization.
Mrs. Peacock: Can I assume then, Ms. Lavender, that you live in Washington D.C. as well?
Ms. Lavender: Indeed, I do.
Everyone eyes each other suspiciously.
Mrs. Peacock: Mrs. Body, I demand to know what is going on here.
Mrs. Body: We must wait for my husband. He arranged this entire party. If everyone is finished, while we wait for him we'll adjourn to the study for drinks.
6:45-6:50 Study. Sit next to Mrs. Peacock. Gifts will be given out from Mr. Body. Feel free to speculate and ask questions about the guests.
6:47 Excuse yourself to use the restroom. You will then go and attempt to kill Mr. Body who is in Room 1. Leave his body on the floor and return to the study. Kill him by smothering him. Leave the pillow on top of his face. Scream to and everyone will rush to you. Explain you heard a noise coming from this room and when you opened the door you found him.
6:50 First murder
6:55 As everyone is returning to the study, Lady Peach will excuse herself to get some air since she is so shaken up. Try and calm her for a few seconds and then tell her you have to use the restroom. Instead of going to the restroom go to Mr. Body's bedroom where you will find him lying in bed trying to calm his nerves after being attempted murder. You will then take the weapon you were given and stab him repeatedly. Return to the study.
7:05 Mr. Body is discovered again. Then back to the study.
7:15 Revelations.
Mrs. Body: My husband has left me a letter stating I should reveal why everyone has been gathered here. It is in this envelope sitting on the piano. I do not know what the contents of this envelope are but he wrote in this letter that I should read them and all would be revealed. Very, well, you have all been gathered here tonight because you are all being blackmailed. My instructions are to read what you are all being blackmailed for.
Mrs. Peacock: Must we read these things out loud?
Mrs. Body: I'm sorry. Colonel Mustard. While you were stationed in Germany in WWII, you stole essential radio parts from the American airplanes.
Mrs. Peacock: A lot of our great airmen died because those parts were missing. You should be ashamed of yourself.
Mrs. Body: Yes, my husband's brother included.
Colonel Mustard defends himself.
Mrs. Body: Moving along…Professor Plum, you were once a doctor for children but not you work for the United Nations.
Prof. Plum: I still study medicine.
Mrs. Body: But you're profession has changed, why?
Col. Mustard: What did he do?
Mrs. Body: Do you know what doctors aren't supposed to do with their lady patients? Everyone nods or agrees Well, he did.
Mrs. Peacock: Oh my god, how disgusting.
Mrs. Body: Are you making moral judgments, Mrs. Peacock? How do you consider taking bribes under the stall of a men's room?
Ms. Lavender: I'd say it stinks.
Mrs. Peacock: How do you know? When were you in that men's room?
Ms. Lavender: So it's true.
Mrs. Peacock: No it's a viscous lie.
Mrs. Body: Well, I'm sure we're all glad to hear that but you've been paying the blackmailer for over a year now to keep that story out of the papers.
Mr. Green: I'm not going to wait for Mrs. Body to expose me so I choose to expose myself.
Lady Peach: Please there are ladies present.
Mr. Green: I work for the state department and I'm a homosexual. I see no crime or feel no shame but I must keep what I am a secret or I will lose my job.
Prince Azure: That is an abomination.
Mrs. Peacock: Ew, disgusting.
Mrs. Body: Lord Orange you make cigars correct?
Lord Orange: Yes, what is wrong with that?
Mrs. Body: Nothing if that is all your business is but how about when you are slipping plastic bags out of a window to a bunch of Columbian immigrants?
Lord Orange: You cannot prove anything.
Mrs. Body: And you Lady Peach have you seen any of these dealings?
Lady Peach: No I have not.
Mrs. Body: This brings us to you, Ms. Lavender.
Miss Scarlett: (intrigued) Yeah, what's your little secret.
Mrs. Body: As if you didn't already know, Miss Scarlett. Ms. Lavender was one of your employers and Colonel Mustard was one of your clients wasn't he? You've already admitted to knowing him.
Colonel Mustard: This is an outrage.
Miss Scarlett: She's right sugar no need denying it.
Mrs. Body: Well, everyone here has a blackmailer…
Lady Peach: What about Prince Azure?
Prince Azure: I've done nothing wrong.
Mrs. Peacock: You're the one who found my husband and this little fruit cake in bed together!
Mrs. Body: Well now that is out we cannot forget that there is a murderer on the loose. It could be one of you or it could be an outside person. I suggest we split up into teams and search and investigate the house. We'll draw straws.
Prof. Plum: Wait, supposing one of us is the killer than the other half of the team will get killed.
Lord Orange: Then we will have discovered who the killer is.
Mrs. Peacock: I don't want to take the chance.
Colonel Mustard: This is war, Peacock. You cannot make a salad without breaking eggs any cook will tell you that.
Miss Scarlett: We all have been given weapons.
Prince Azure: She's right. They should be locked up.
