Act 1
Brendan and Philip kill their best friend David. In order to find excitement, Braden also put David's body in a box at home, and then used the box as a dining table; and then held a PARTY, inviting good friends including David's father to participate - David's father I was supposed to borrow a few books.
Braden is bold and confident, Philip is timid and cowardly. Although Philip opposed the proposal, in the end he had to listen to Braden.
The maid came to prepare all kinds of things first, and she also found it strange to use this wooden box as a dining table. Braden and Philip were all prepared.
In the second act,
good friend Rupert came first, and the three chatted casually. Braden told Rupert that he had a better chance with Janet than David. This puzzled Rupert a bit.
Janet came, and she was embarrassed to see Rupert, because the two were in a relationship before, but now Janet and David are together. Janet was also looking for David, and she was a little worried. And Brendan pretends not to know that Janet is with David now - he always likes to play pranks from the top.
David's father and his wife and sister came. David's father couldn't get in touch with David, and his wife and sister were proficient in astrology, and always counted this for that.
Finally came Rupert, an old friend—he had been Braden's teacher and knew him well.
Philip was out of shape because of fear, everyone could see it, but no idea why.
In the second act,
PARTY is getting more and more unhappy. Rupert and Janet aren't happy to know that Brendan is trying to fuck them; Brendan's superior theory makes everyone uncomfortable, especially David's father; Philip because Brendan talks about killing chickens Emotionally out of control; David's father is also told by his wife that David is still missing. David's father bids farewell with a book - Braden's bad habit of tying David's father's book with the rope that killed David. The others followed, including Professor Rupert - but he was clearly suspicious.
Both Braden and Philip were relieved, but Philip was frustrated, thinking that Rupert must have seen something. The two quarreled because of this, and Philip also drank a lot of alcohol.
Suddenly, in the third act
, the phone rang, and it was Professor Rupert. He said he forgot his cigarette case and wanted to come back to get it. Bligh agreed, and Philip grew more flustered.
Brandon kept a pistol in his pocket just in case. Professor Rupert pretended to have found a cigarette case on the cabinet with the dead body, but he stayed in no hurry to go and drink.
Several people began to speculate on how to kill David... Rupert raised his own doubts - from the servant's nagging, Braden told Rupert that he had more chances than David's, and about killing Chicken details, Philip's abnormal performance, etc.
While talking, Philip collapsed, letting the two conspiracy reveal their secrets, and Rupert also found David's body in the box.
Braden was trying to convince Rupert, who had previously subscribed to the theory of superior people. But Rupert objected to Braden.
Rupert shot out the window, hoping to get everyone's attention. Brendan and Philip are both dumb, waiting for the police to arrive...
