1. There are 10,000 ways Beth killed her mother better than the one she used in the movie. Apparently she had plenty of time to prepare, but she chose the worst possible way.

2. It's hard to imagine Beth killing her mother for a word from the protagonist, she doesn't look like a mentally immature person.

The Oxford Murders quotes

  • Martin: I believe in the number pi.

    Arthur Seldom: I'm sorry, I didn't understand you. Uh, what was it you said you believed in?

    Martin: In the number pi, in the golden section, the Fibonacci series. The essence of nature is mathematical. There is a hidden meaning beneath reality. Things are organized following a model, a scheme, a logical series. Even the tiny snowflake includes a numerical basis in its structure, therefore, if we manage to discover the secret meaning of numbers, we will know the secret meaning of reality.

  • Arthur Seldom: Miss Scarlet is now an electron, okay? And you're looking at her through a keyhole or a particle accelerator - as you wish - and every time you look at her, Miss Scarlet will have changed her appearance or her position because the very fact that you observe her alters her atomic state. How about that?

    Martin: Don't try to confuse me with tricks.
