Carol's Emails

• Carol reveals that she's been using a rental car for the past few weeks.
• She also mentions winning a SAIST tournament back in her heyday.

Contact Letter

• We have narrowed it down to three suspects:

  • Marcus Lourdes
  • Harrison Campbell
  • Carol Donnelly

Encoded Note

• The last line mentions "adding a twist", meaning there is an extra step to decoding the words this time around.
• This is another Caesar cipher like the one in Episode 5. Shift the letters forward in the alphabet using the number that precedes it.

• The decoded words become:

  • AHNNTA
  • FTOCRNON
  • OYU
  • DBIRBE
  • NIUR
  • NILILASL
  • OERCS
  • TROPNOFTI
  • DOLOB
  • RBNU
  • ENO
  • GEOVL
  • AEFNUR
  • ARPI

• Next, we must unscramble the decoded words.

• The final words are:

  • NATHAN
  • CONFRONT
  • YOU
  • BRIBED
  • RUIN
  • LILLIAN'S
  • SCORE
  • FOOTPRINT
  • BLOOD
  • BURN
  • ONE
  • GLOVE
  • FURNACE
  • PAIR

Marcus's Memoir Outtakes

• We get an idea of Marcus's relationships with Carol and Harrison, as well as his disdain for Nathan.

Paperweight

• This was found on Carol's desk away from her other trophies.

Police Report

• This is the police report Sofia filed after the attempted hit-and-run.
• The vehicle she saw was a black convertible with a license plate containing the letters J and D.

Registered Vehicle List

• There are two black convertibles on this list.

  • One belonging to Talia Astor - license plate 66F-DOJ.
  • The second belonging to Eliza Martin - license plate 47J-FFH.

• Sofia saw the letters D and J on the car that attempted to run her over.

  • So we should focus on the car registered to Talia Astor, which is also the maiden name of Marcus's mother.

Sweatband

• It says "ICELIFE".

Welcome Packet

• So, every 5 years, SAIST feels the need to alter their logo...?
