The difference between the faking theories before ep5-6 and the faking theories after is that prior to ep5, people were suggesting the FTs were actually faked, and that people weren't dead. Very few people think the FTs in 1-4 have many - or any - survivors, but the idea is to reverse the assumption of the murders.

That is, before we believed: The FT victims were killed, and the killer posed them in bizarre and theatrical situations.

Now we believe: The FT victims were in a bizarre theatrical situation, and that was when the killer killed them.

The distinction is obvious; we have gone from asking why there is a theatrical killer to asking why there might be a group of theatrical non-killers, and who among them is becoming the actual killer. And while it may seem ridiculous, twice now in Chiru it seems entirely clear that there is exactly such a faction, and the characters most likely to number in that faction are not strong murder suspects and even potentially excluded in red.

RANDOM THOUGHT OF THE DAY: Is the golden brooch that can give the magic of love and happiness the gold itself? Did both Shannon and Kanon solve the epitaph, but are uncertain what to do with it? Do they come into conflict over the use of the gold? Remember, just because you "have no use for" money doesn't mean you can't disagree on how that money should be used...
