COBRA Memo

• This shows that Penny became listless and purposely failed the test.

Financial Document

• A lot of people are being paid off by this "beneficiary"...
• The statement shows that Kingsley was given $3,000 for his unwilling cooperation.

Jigsaw Puzzle

• There is writing on the back of some of the pieces.

  • Assemble the puzzle upside down in order to piece the message together for reading.

• The writing is in French and written backward.

  • The mirror Penny gave us can be used to read it correctly.

• Turn the puzzle so that the words are upside down.

• Penny gave us a double-sided mirror compact for a reason.

  • Hold the opened mirror in front of the puzzle, so you can see the reflected words.
  • In the reflection, you will be able to read the message right-side-up, left to right.

• The message reads: "Oublier le temps des malentendus et le temps perdu".

  • Translated into English: "forget time misunderstandings and lost time".

• Googling "Oublier le temps des malentendus et le temps perdu" brings us to a song: "Ne Me Quitte Pas" by Jacques Brel.

  • Ne Me Quitte Pas is French for "Do Not Leave Me".
  • Penny has been abandoned by everyone else around her and is fearing the loss of us as well.

Letter from Kingsley

• Kingsley explains how he was "ordered" to drop Penny's case, despite him being on the winning track.

  • Why was he forced to discontinue representing Penny?
  • Who doesn't want to see her redeemed?

Letter from Penny

• "Hanging by an ear"?

  • Why does she use this expression?
  • It's usually "hanging by a thread"...

• "Madder than a puffed toad"... 🤣

• Penny explains a bit about what's happened with her "allies": Kingsley and Vernon.

Mirror

• The mirror can be used to read the written message on the back of the jigsaw puzzle.

Note from Sven

• To solve the puzzle on the back of Sven's card, make note of his last sentence.

  • "Always advance from the beginning of the suit."

• Taking the first letter of each suit, shift forward from that letter by the number in that box.

• For example, the first box is an 8 of spades.

  • The first letter of the suit (spades) is "S". So, you would shift 8 letters forward from "S", resulting in "A".

• Jack = 11, Queen = 12, King = 13

• Once decoded, the message reads:

  • "AUTHORIZATION CODE IS DAYBREAK. ONCE FRIEND ENTERS CODES, RELEASE ORDERS WILL TRIGGER. GOOD LUCK, PENNY."

Penny's Painting

• This one is of a vulture.

• Once decoded, the Morse code in this painting reads:

  • "THE LIFE I EARNED"

Playing Card

• It is a Queen of Hearts.

  • Penny used to be Sven's Queen of Hearts. Now she wants to be ours.

• The letter "T" is drawn on the back of this card.

  • This is a hint at how to solve the puzzle on the back of Sven's note.
  • After shifting correctly, the Queen of Hearts results in "T".

Second Chance Letter

• This letter explains that Vernon was "let go" because he "failed to meet LFoA's standards of performance and conduct".
