PLAZA ORB mullen mistaken identity conclusion - 1144

G 0 START 1 input 0->1 10 Logic: Give up. You'll never find the answer. There's no other copy of "Dick Mullen and the Mistaken Identity" here. 1->10 2 Electrochemistry: Or *MORE* speed! 36 Variable["plaza.orb_mullenconclusion_electro_speed"] 2->36 3 You: It was love did them in. 22 Logic: Sure, yes. They died of an over-abundance of love. Just loved each other to death. Couldn't get enough love. And now they're dead. 3->22 4 Conceptualization: So, who killed Charlie Spillane and Deanna Deneuve, detective? Just fucking pick one. 15 the final countdown 4->15 5 Logic: There isn't. If only you had more time... more resources... who knows what you could have come up with? 17 Logic: Maybe if there had been more money... and less speed... 5->17 6 Logic: Okay, sure. A defunct political ideology came and murdered a couple of people. History repeats itself, and the whole cycle starts again... 24 Conceptualization: Case closed, and with no time to spare. Ideologies are dangerous, but communism won't be troubling the people anymore -- all thanks to you, politico-detective. 6->24 7 You: The junkie art collector. 20 Logic: It makes sense: Junkies and art collectors both need a steady stream of income, and what better way to generate income than... murdering a couple of people. 7->20 8 You: Fuck you, book! It *was* Dick Mullen. 32 Logic: It still doesn't make sense, but who cares? Yes, Dick Mullen, the famous detective, killed his best friend and a dame he just nailed in cold blood. But why'd he do it? Unclear! 8->32 9 Conceptualization: You've seen it yourself, haven't you? Maybe that cuts a little close to the bone, *jaded cop*. Take it easy -- Don't let the memory of old betrayals haunt you tonight. 21 You: I guess that's it. Maybe it's better this way. [Finish thought.] 10->21 23 You: There's got to be a way to solve this. 10->23 40 You: But, why? 10->40 11 Logic: Sounds good. You can't trust the fuzz, after all. They *say* they've got your back, but do they *really?* More like they've got a *knife* in your back. 11->9 12 Conceptualization: Well done, ace detective. You put a dangerous junkie *and* art collector behind bars -- two birds with one stone! Now put your feet up and take a breather. 13 You: The dirty police captain. 13->11 14 Conceptualization: Why not? Love gets a lot of people killed... Speaking of, aren't you a little close to the edge, yourself, lover-cop? Better lay off that love stuff, if you can. 15->3 15->7 15->8 15->13 25 You: Wait, I've got it: It was *communism*. 15->25 29 You: The politician's twat son. 15->29 16 Logic: Because that's how the world works. Some stories never get finished. You shouldn't expect there to be a tidy, satisfying ending. 31 Inland Empire: But... but... what if you never find out how *your* story ends? 16->31 17->2 18 Logic: Or *that*, yes. Either way, you might've been able to come up with an answer. But not like this. 30 Conceptualization: Hang on, you can do this. *Use your imagination*. You know who the suspects are, just... make it up. 18->30 19 Logic: Sure, why not? Everyone knows politicians are corrupt, and what's more corrupt than letting your entitled spawn run around offing people? 39 Conceptualization: Way to go, public corruption cop. You've seen first-hand how the powerful tip the scales of justice in their favour, but today you tipped them back *just a little*. You can rest easy tonight. 19->39 20->12 22->14 23->5 25->6 27 You: Man, what a disappointment. [Finish thought.] 28 Conceptualization: Doesn't matter. The choice has been made. You caught the criminal -- It was Dick Mullen all along. Who's the real detective now? That's right, it's you. Rest easy tonight, *real detective*. 29->19 33 Variable["plaza.orb_mullen_conclusion_concept_ending"] 30->33 31->21 31->23 32->28 34 Variable["plaza.orb_mullen_conclusion_concept_ending"] 33->34 35 !(Variable["plaza.orb_mullen_conclusion_concept_ending"]) 33->35 34->4 35->27 37 Variable["plaza.orb_mullenconclusion_electro_speed"] 36->37 38 !(Variable["plaza.orb_mullenconclusion_electro_speed"]) 36->38 37->18 38->30 40->16
