They're even more cagey than I am. [ but it's not like she knows what kinds of rules they have to follow, if they do have rules. ] Unless they want to keep a murderer's identity secret if we fail to figure it out in time...
[ which she still thinks it's better to know what teams should be knocked down a few pegs, like jonas said. ]
I don't, but I don't understand people who don't try to be their best or do their best at something.
[ it doesn't have to be competition-based. it can be anything. ]
I got the impression that even if we solved who the culprit was, they can't tell us everything about how things went down. So if we failed to catch someone, it's probably something like that. If the points value for an erasure is as high as they say it is, then it'd be pretty obvious it's one of four people.
Still. That's a risk that should be taken in a competition like this. If you're going to play the game, you should remember the consequences.
[ she says that, and there's a flicker in his emotions that's both a flag of uncertainty, a dash of agitation, but ultimately stubbornness and agreement. ]
Pretty sure that depends on what you define as weak and strong. Or, actually, what "their best" looks like. Someone's best might be my worst attempt. [ it seems like an excuse from those hypothetical people though. ]

But it's why the weak who die die.
