This has always bothered me since I saw this part of EP7. Exactly what is the significance of Maria's singing here? Is it just because it lured Natsuhi & co. out of the study? Or is there something else? And "illusion of a closed room" probably means that this isn't a true closed room at all.

A: Report of Kanon attacking in the servants' room was a lie. Bodies in courtyard were as they appeared.
B: False murder in servants' room. Real murders later.
Both satisfied.
Gohda probably is not an accomplice. I think Piece!Yasuda actually showed up there, posing as Kanon, and pulled some kind of stunt, possibly/probably with the help of Genji.

What is this mutable blade? The sleeping pills? Who is the "obvious culprit"?

A: Jessica lied to Battler on the phone.
B: ???
A satsified, B ???
This is another thing that confuses me. In EP5 as well, there are hints that Jessica might be an accomplice (the phone call with Battler at the beginning, and the fact that she "died" in the cousins' room). But would Jessica really do something like this? In the case of EP5, does she have that much of a grudge against Natsuhi? Everything I remember leads me to believe that she does not. Her personality makes me think that she would rather die. I don't really know, though.

The "It was somebody else's corpse" claim explains exactly the same things, but requires the additional assumptions of "Somebody managed to find another corpse with two six-toed feet of comparable size, and snuck it onto the island.", and explains nothing that the first didn't.
We have no reason to believe that it's not Kinzo's corpse. I don't get why this would be doubted...
