Are you seriously trying to rile up 169 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: the lit killer when he still has tag who knows where? 170 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: That puts her in even more danger than she's already 171 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: in right now. It's not like that, Holly. I have 172 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: a plan. I just you. Why should we the tig 173 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 1: sounds like you're more interested in catching the killer than 174 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 1: finding her. Maybe we should give Lahne the chance to 175 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: play out his plan. It's our best shot right now, 176 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: but the second it gets sketchy we go public. Fine 177 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: when whatever, But I mean you and I can be 178 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: trusted to stay quiet, but what about me? Trust me? 179 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: I will not be talking up how I wasted my 180 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:18,319 Speaker 1: afternoon with the nerd. That'll do for now. So what 181 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: news did I walk in up? We found a page 182 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: from The Great Gatsby. It was highlighted for us at 183 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,719 Speaker 1: the amusement park. The book is way and new are 184 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 1: the Montague Hotel? What about it? That place is old 185 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,959 Speaker 1: and gross. It used to be a huge mansion, right 186 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: before they turn it into a hotel and then shut 187 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 1: it down. I could be way off base, but if 188 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: anything in this town, says Gatsby, it's that hotel. It's 189 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: decorated to look like something right out of the Roaring twenties. 190 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: What if the book is a clue pointness there? What 191 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: if it takes there? Let's not jump to any crazy 192 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: conclusions yet. All right, you can stay here. I'll go 193 00:11:49,880 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 1: check it out and remember keep Max's secret. Okay, I'm 194 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: sure his intentions are good, But do you think do 195 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: you think he'll actually find her or discover? Don't go there, 196 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: just don't. Hi, Everyone take here. Big news is well, 197 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: I'm alive. I'm still here, barely according to my phone battery, 198 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: and I have zero bars right now, so I can't 199 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 1: call anyone. All I can do is record. I don't 200 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: really know where I am smells musty, some sort of basement, 201 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: a huge one I just came to. So my head's 202 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: still a little spinny, nose feels clogged with dust. Not 203 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: a lot of time to waste, So since this might 204 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 1: be my last recording, I should get to the facts. 205 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: Max and I were attacked in the amusement park. I 206 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: didn't get a good look at the person that did it, 207 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: so I have no idea what happened. But it was 208 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: the lit Killer, I'm sure of it. This is proof 209 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: for all the holdouts and haters.

I'm alive thanks 231 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: to La Haine. I think I wanted to present everything 232 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 1: to you guys as close to chronologically as possible, hence 233 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: the awkward ali and in narration from before. Anyway, once 234 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: Lahane got me out of there and I tasted freedom, 235 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: I made a brief stop before sinking back into the case. 236 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: But now it was time to get back to business 237 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: and pull our evidence. Who are our suspects, who do 238 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: we think it's next? And what can we do to 239 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: prevent another murder? First stop is Max's bedside. I don't 240 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: think I could have forgiven myself if Max had died 241 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: because of me, but still it it all just didn't 242 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: add up. The lit killer doesn't miss. So how did 243 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: the two of us make it out alive? And what 244 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: is Lahne's deal? How tig ouch I get it? Hugs 245 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: are acceptable between near death twins because pain meds are 246 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: totally wearing off. Nurse Sex who scared the crap out 247 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: of me? I'm so sorry. I don't know what I 248 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 1: was thinking nighttime abandoned amusement park zero backup, great plan, Tig. 249 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: I thought we were both done for me too to go. 250 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: You seem to be in better shape than me. I 251 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: hide it well, It's mostly just emotional scarring at this point. 252 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: Otherwise I'd have trouble hiding it from a Boila. Shit. 253 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: I still need to call her and let her know. 254 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 1: I'm okay, Wait, you still haven't gone home yet.

Okay, So, um, 261 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 1: before we were um attacked in that horrible clown palace, 262 00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: I was telling Tig I did some research show on 263 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: our new victims. Tony principal Block and they were part 264 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: of this group called the Murder of Crows, along with 265 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: some other people from town like Mayor high Smith, Sam 266 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: Steiner Levinson, Miranda Pyle, Lahyne, and Charlie Pachoda. The dudes 267 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: in this group, which meant pretty regularly to compare notes 268 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 1: and talk about the case. They all either lived through 269 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: the O. G. Lit Killer or were tied to one 270 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,440 Speaker 1: of his victims in some way, like Tony who lost 271 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 1: his dad.

My aunt was tagged 286 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: as a murderer by this entire town. Meanwhile, you and 287 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 1: your friends are participating in a serial killer fan club 288 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: and studying all the facts like people's lives aren't at stake, 289 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 1: and then using your position to swipe evidence just so 290 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 1: you can haug the glory on this case. You don't 291 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:38,919 Speaker 1: think I can tell you're trying to piggyback on all 292 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 1: the work we've done. Stop Wait, who told you about 293 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 1: the club? I have sources, just like you do, confidential ones. 294 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: We're going to talk this out of the station. You 295 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,639 Speaker 1: can't just keep secrets from the police, understand, Say, goodbody, 296 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 1: goof troop and meet me outside ten minutes tops, I'll 297 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: have a cobra con affect yourself. Yea, My brain was 298 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: all turned around from confronting Lane. It seemed impulsive, but 299 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: also necessary because honestly, why should I trust him? But 300 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:16,640 Speaker 1: my gut was telling me something else. My gut felt bad, 301 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 1: like I'd missed something important and was running too hot 302 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: on emotion and adrenaline. My gut was right. Okay, here 303 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: I am walking to the hospital exit, being a total 304 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: adult and acknowledging that maybe I was being a little 305 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: hasty and emotional in there with Lane. I mean, I 306 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,680 Speaker 1: can't afford shrug off the chance to pool our resources, 307 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: even if it is a risk. Who knows what the 308 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 1: cops have that could be of interest. It's not like 309 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 1: Carvers and ally so having an informant in the precinct. 310 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: It's really freaking useful. Yeah, I'm almost outside. We're just 311 00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 1: too It's just what's that I just got outside and 312 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 1: something just happened.

I'm trying to get closer to night. 315 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 1: Can you really fell? No? No, no, not again. It's Lane. 316 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: He's been hit out of the way, so exclub math Lane, 317 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 1: hold on, help is coming plane? What is just bluntly? Miss? 318 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 1: We're gonna need you to step back, please help him. 319 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 1: All right, let's get him on the gurney. One to 320 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 1: three step back. You gotta get this fan of sicks. 321 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: I can't I can't help, I think, he said, he said. 322 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: Despite the best efforts of the hospital staff, Detective Lehane's 323 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: injuries were too great. He was run over as he 324 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: was walking to his car to get cigarettes from his 325 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 1: glove compartment, probably in need of a smoke. After I 326 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 1: tore into him for a second there, I'd thought Lahane 327 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: had all the makings of a good suspect. He joined 328 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: the murder of Crow's club late, arriving just before the 329 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 1: killing started up again. He was willing to move evidence 330 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 1: or then the rules to get the gold star, a 331 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: red flag for sure, but still I just couldn't peg 332 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: him as our killer. No, he was just eager to 333 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 1: it out of hollow Falls and make a name for himself. Instead, 334 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 1: he got hit by a car while he was crossing 335 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:16,159 Speaker 1: the street. Layne too. No, our list of friends is 336 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 1: getting shorter and shorter. Who's going to help us? If not? 337 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:24,199 Speaker 1: Even the cops can't jesus. He just keeps picking us 338 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: off one by one. And f Scott Fitzgerald's The Great 339 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: Gatsby Myrtle is run down by a car. There are 340 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: more layers to it, of course, Who was driving which car? 341 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 1: What really happened. The big point is that the murder 342 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 1: of Lahne was no random act of violence, and we 343 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 1: should be more worried than ever. Since this thing first 344 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 1: started ten years ago, the lip Killer would take a 345 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: victory lap with his murders, pose them according to a 346 00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: clue the cops would get when they discovered the boy. 347 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 1: Now it seems like the lit Killer is going a 348 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: step further. The clues are more complicated. The highlighted page 349 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 1: when found pointed back to the Hall of Mirrors, where 350 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,360 Speaker 1: Max was attacked while I was being held at the hotel. 351 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 1: But the whole time, the lit Killer was actually gunning 352 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 1: for Lahine, not just looking for attention anymore playing a 353 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: game with me. Max is alive. I'm still alive. My 354 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: friends are with me. But as we get closer to 355 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: finding the lit Killer, it all makes me think of 356 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 1: the closing lines of Fitzgerald's novel. So we beat on 357 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:51,679 Speaker 1: boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past. 358 00:23:55,520 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 1: On the next episode of Lethal lit a come together. 359 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 1: It has to be an answer, and even if I 360 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: can't solve it, I hope I've done enough for someone 361 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 1: else to figure it out. The clues have come together, 362 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 1: I Know the Answer, I Know who the lip Killer Is. 363 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: Iron Horn's Epic Productions and I Heart Radio present Legal 364 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 1: lit a Tig Tourism Mystery created an executive produced by 365 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 1: Heather Einhorn and Adam STAFFARONI written, created and executive produced 366 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: by Alex the Gurrel and Monica Gallagher.
