Scene: The Robinson’s
Margaret picked up a few bits and pieces and tried to carry on as everything was turned over. It seemed Joyce is still mourning over the death of Martha and they have much to do to prepare for the funeral. “Hi” said Jackson Robinson as he peered through the door. Oh Jackson I am so glad you’re here” she said as she placed the plates down. “Thank you so much for coming” she cuddled her nephew.
“How are mum and everyone?”
“Trying to be strong for one another, but your mum is exactly like she was when your father died,” she said,

Jasmine Robinson walked over to Cody’s room. “There you are” she said, “I was wondering what you were doing”
Cody looked at some pictures, which he found of his mother Casandra. “What was she like?”
Jasmine sat down the bed beside him.
“I guess you have to ask your dad that one honey,” she added.
“I was a year old when mum died. Now-“
“Now you’re a young man going to be a teenager soon,” she said.
She hugged him.
Scene: The Badhman’s
Jocelyn Richards walked into the family home expecting a warm welcome. There was no one around, not a soul. “That’s lovely she thought,” she said. The front door turned and Lizzie walked in.
“Mum” she said.
“Finally at last someone here to greet me, where is everyone?” She looked at her glumly.
“Darling what on earth is the matter?”
“Mum, you don’t know do you?”
“Oh are you going to tell me?”
“Chantal killed Martha, Martha’s died,” she said.
Scene: The Prison
Chantal Jones walked into the seating room where Graham sat twiddling his fingers. Chantal sat down. “Didn’t think you wanted to see me again,” she said.
“This is the last time I am going to see you. You are not welcome in my family again do you understand” he said.
“Do you understand I wanted you to win! I love you!”
“You don’t understand the meaning of love god damn it!” She moved closer to him.
“I went out of my way for you for that election so I needed to do something, something drastic,” she said.
“Murder!”
Scene: The Badhman
“Well” she raised her hands as her daughter explained the situation. “I told you so” she rolled her eyes in despair.
“Well I’m not going to be picking up the pieces now am I ? I don’t want to be the one holding his hand and saying everything is going to be all right, the man can’t keep it in his trousers!”
“Okay mum you made your point; frankly I didn’t want to hear that part!”
“Grow up darling!”
Lizzie put her hands on her hips. Graham walked into the room.
“Ah you have come to gloat have you, very you” he said.
“You brought this on yourself and for once I am not here to pick up the pieces Graham. You get yourself out of this mess and leave everyone else to!” She got up. “I be staying in the hotel, not here” she got up and walked out of the house.
“Nice one dad” said Lizzie.
