You find yourself in a beautiful red room, the edges of each wall adorned with real gold accents. At the center of the room is a long table, several chairs on either side of it, perfect for very serious conferences. In the middle of the table is a plate of strawberry jam tarts atop it, one per teammate present.

In the corner of the room is a hole in the ground, only large enough for a small animal to fit through. Next to it is a flat iron bar, curled at its tip, where a golden bell has been hung from it.

Finally, on one wall is a large poster which reads (or you find read aloud to you, if you cannot read):

Sing a song of sixpence, a pocket full of rye,
Four and twenty blackbirds baked into a pie.
When the pie was opened, the birds began to sing.
Oh, isn't that a dainty dish to set before a King?

The King was in his counting house counting out his money,
The Queen was in the parlour eating bread and honey.
The Maid was in the garden hanging out the clothes,
When down came a blackbird and pecked off her nose!

Hey, did the cook have any idea that it would make a slow-acting poison for the king? I know it says mistake, but I want to make sure!

[YANKS BELL]

Hey! Was the Cook a member of that terrorist organization? Or was the fact that he served blackbirds on Monday a complete coincidence?

And is it confirmed the blackbirds poisoned the King's meal?

Is there any hint that the Cook might have been bribed before serving the King the blackbird?

It seems odd they'd be more poisonous on Monday then on Thursday.

Re: verdict

The crime the Cook committed was an accident, but an accidental killing is still killing. Still, putting him to death in response to an accident is stupid. So we'll imprison him for life, so the King's people who are mad at him for what he did won't try to kill him.

That should be punishment enough for his crime.

Okay! Guys, we need to determine one fact.

Do we think the Cook knew he was involved with a terrorist group or not?

We know the poisonous aspect was not public knowledge. We know he was irritated and spiteful. But was that enough for him to be involved in something that was definitely dangerous for people? Do we think he would have acted if he had known what he was doing?

Who thinks what of his character?

Re: verdict

Our verdict for the Cook stays the same.

We convict the Blackbirds to conspiracy and murder, and sentence them to lifetime imprisonment. But not any prisons within the kingdom. We send them away to other kingdoms, split them up so they can't reconvene and try to hurt anyone else ever again.
