The Mock Trial
[Jesse McCree is dead, the first victim of, what the Overseers seem to hope, is a long game of motives and murder for whatever their reasons. With the investigation completed, C.E.C.E.'s voice comes over the system and directs the Champions to proceed to the locked elevator door at the end of the hallway. Once all Champions are on board, the elevator begins a slow descent down beyond any area that they've been able to explore so far. At least the elevator music is charming.
When the elevator door opens, the Champions enter a courtroom with 21 podiums arranged in a circle and each one marked with a name. McCree's face grins casually at the 20 surviving members from one of the podiums, a greyscale portrait in honor of the dead.]
Congratulations. We have now entered the trial portion of the test. I trust that you will do your best to determine who disturbed the peace by committing murder. Once the culprit has been found, they will face an appropriate punishment for their crime. If you fail to determine the culprit, however, they will be allowed to leave the space station and the rest of you will face punishment instead.

Stand up. There's no point in remaining here now.

...So... it's over? It's really... we can leave this room now?
[ She's already reaching to take his hand, trying to gather her composure now even if she'll likely not be able to get Naho's screams out from her head. ]

The elevator is open. It's time for us to return to the more palatable portion of our cage.

[ Look at Ruby. She's at least trying to regain some of her spunk, even if a little bit despite she's still clearly hurting. ]
We have... to try hard to keep going. That's what she would have wanted for us.
[ With that she is going to try to head to the elevator, but will remain next to Margulis because right now she just doesn't want to be left on her own. ]
