"...If you think that anyone has forgiven you for your crimes, that you are disturbingly naive." She finished, walking off. Her words stuck with me, but I tried to get away from them by going into my cell. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to escape the thoughts from in there, even as I buried my head in my mattress.
Does anyone actually forgive me?
Does Poppy? Does Urkstin?

"Good luck Contestants."And just like that, the Loudspeakers shut off, leaving us in silence yet again as our next motive was announced."Well, that's not what I was expecting." Mia said, admitting that surprisingly."It is the same for me. I was expecting something, but not something of that caliber of uncertainty."

Inside the cafeteria, there was an undeniable feeling of dread, or anguish over the videos. However, that feeling was overshadowed by the feeling of confidence that we'll be able to overcome it, somehow. I wasn't sure how we were going to, but sharing the videos was the only first step we have.The three of us grabbed ourselves some breakfast, and I grabbed myself two cups of coffee as a preliminary wakeup call, and we sat down."Before we get started," Mia said, speaking up in a much more formal tone, "I would like to know who watched their videos, so we know who to talk to in the meeting.

“But, while I was going, I heard…something.” He added.“Something? Whaddya hear?” Poppy interrogated, getting right up in Urkstin’s face, completely forgetting about her prying apology seconds before.“Ah, w-well,” Urkstin gulped, backing up as much as he could, “I heard what sounded like that metal plate beingmoved
Joseph.Urkstin.Risa.Those three were the only potential culprits, they had to be. But even then, I didn’t want to think that one of them could have been lying to me. That thought that one of them was blatantly lying to hide the fact they killed Jambo was overwhelmingly depressing…
