  5. #6. I think Sam Westing is dead because Turtle found a dead body in the Westing house.

    1. But another idea is that he isn't dead. What if he just wanted to have the game?

    2. That's true that he could of just wanted the game and I don't think that he is dead because he could of put a dummy or a wax body that looked similar to his

    4. I believe that westing is not dead, he was a huge gambler and probably wanted to pull the biggest game in his life, but later in the book a good twist would be that he actually did die.

    5. Oksana has a valid theory. Turtle was the first to see the body, making her opinion more valuable then anyone else.

  7. #1 I think Turtle was framing herself because she didn't want Angela to get in trouble. Since Angela is over 18, she could be prosecuted. Turtle couldn't be. If Angela was taken to court, she could be fined a ton of money.

    1. I agree because even though Turtle doesn't really like her sister she still wouldn't want her to go to prison.

    2. I think that Turtle likes Angela because she seemed like she really didn't want anybody to know, but other than that I agree.

    1. I disagree because I think Sam Westing is still alive so there is no murderer.
