  4. #4. Eloped means run away secretly in order to get married, especially without parental consent. It's found on page 121.

  5. #5 Mr. Theodorakis is lonely because when he was younger he and Violet Westing wanted to get married but Mrs. Westing broke them up, and paired Violet with a politician. Violet thought he was cruel but she couldn't stand to face he mother so she committed suicide.

    1. I'm surprised violet didn't just sneak away and get married instead of committing suicide.

    2. I do agree that Mr. Theodorakis is lonely. Because when he was younger he and Violet thought they were " Soul Mates." But , Mrs. Westing broke them up and paired up her and a politician to be "Soul Mates." But it never worked out . She thought he was cruel, and she couldn't stand against her mother, so she took the easy, yet difficult way out of life.

  6. 1. Theo ended up in the ER after his slight miscalculation in his "solution" experiment. However, no one were even around when his lab blew up.

    1. I agree that Theo seems smart because he figured out most of his and Doug's clues.
