Ending #5 (Charlotte) Flashcards
*Lights up
Well, Mrs. Uno, I hate to tell you, but your husband has been murdered.
MRS. UNO
Murdered?
Exactly. But not to worry, because I know exactly who the killer is. And I can prove it.
*Lightning & thunder
*Only one of us…
Only one of us was familiar with Mr. Uno, Mr. Bilkem, and Mortimer before this evening. Only one of us was present at the time of each of the killings. Only one of us could have staged all three deaths to make us accuse each other. And that person was not one of the guests here tonight.
DAPHNE
What do you mean?
*The body of Mr. Uno was moved…
The body of Mr. Uno was moved when we were in the library. Only one of us here was not present in the library.
GEORG
Who me?
*George was the only…
Georg was the only person capable of moving the body. And why? Why Georg? Why did you do it?
GEORG
I don’t know! Sometimes I just do things!
Like fall in love with Charlotte, the muderess?
CHARLOTTE
Ahhhh!
*Faints
Oh get up.
GEORG
She’s fainted!
She has not. She’s faking it.
GEORG
She fakes nothing!
Oh Georg, how little you know. In fact, Charlotte is not her real name. Her real name… is Gertrude!
CHARLOTTE
Ahhhh!
*And she’s not French…
And she’s not French at all, she is German.
CHARLOTTE
I could make you some strudel.
Okay, everyone stop! No strudel is going to solve this! I’m afraid, Gertrude, that we’re going to have to give you over to the INS!
CHARLOTTE
Nein!
*Come along, Gertrude…
Come along, Gertrude, we’re taking you to the police.
