Third Trial
[You get a little time after your investigation is over, but not too long. Your Overseer is right there, after all, and he can tell when you're finished.
Xander will lead you all out the door near Fourt's, opening what had been impenetrable sheet metal with a few taps and swipes on his tablet. This won't take you outside either; instead, it leads to a long hallway. Like a walk-through aquarium, the walls and ceiling are all made of thick glass, giving you an even better view of the stars outside. There's no sign that the mall is attached to some kind of large-scale station. There's really not going to be an easy way to escape here, unless you get transportation.
You're led to a wide-open area, empty except for a circle of podiums in its center. They're labeled so you can easily find yours. Soma and Togami's grey-scale portraits have joined the three ladies' portraits this time in the places they previously stood. Three of the podiums remain empty and nameless. The walls here are equally transparent, and they seem to have lines of large hatches going along them, as if this is where one might park one's spaceship when going on a fun space mall adventure. Shame you don't know anything about those.
You already know what you're here to do. You'd best be getting along with it.]

What do you mean he wasn't acting right?
no subject
How dare you! I loved him!! He knew... I would have done anything he asked! Anything!!
[...]
...he was anxious. He wasn't composed like he usually is.
no subject
But maybe...he knew? Maybe he knew whoever he was listening to knew. Maybe he was afraid someone was after him, but then, he wouldn't have left himself alone...

[Sorry she already blames herself for everything.]
I don't know. I... don't know! He... wouldn't have bothered trying to protect me. He knew... better than anyone... what I was capable of.

[She drops off her podium, enraged.]
Pretended?! How... how could you...
[...at least until she looks like she wants to start crying.]
He promised... when we got out of here... that... that I could... that I could stay by his side. He....
