Fear not, esteemed attendees, it's not all doom and gloom in this lethal mystery story. You'll find plenty moments worth of laughter. Be warned, since details on the guests' death will be unmarked.

As a Moments subpage, all spoilers are unmarked as per policy. You Have Been Warned.


  • Two Diamonds' nonchalance after he kills Sixpence makes it sound like he's talking about the weather.
    Two Diamonds: I know it may sound odd, but in a way, you're lucky, sir. "Plan B" was just going to be beating you to death with a candlestick… which would have been exhausting for both of us. So everyone wins, really.
  • Saving Reginald requires Lafcadio to push an empty cartridge into the gun Two Diamonds uses to kill him. The shot doesn't go off, the servant curses and loads the second round — which gives Sixpence enough time to break out of his shock and throw a candlestick at his head, knocking him out.
    Reginald: HA! Golden duck! Cracking job!
    • Reginald then has a moment of amusement when he spots Two Diamonds. Due to the loop's nature, he has forgotten that he knocked him out. Instead he believes that he fell asleep after drinking too much.
    Reginald: Ha! Someone's been having a sly tipple on the job! Good show! Sleep it off, that man!
  • Reginald built and programmed the robotic card dealer in the casino. He also added bad puns based on card games. What makes it funny are Clay's reactions to said puns.
    Clay: Right then, bony Joe! I bet that old crank that his invention couldn't deal a hand of cards to save its mechanical life. What do you say to that?
    Robotic Card Dealer: WELCOME TO THE SEXY BRUTALE, PLAYER. IT'S ALL HANDS ON "DECK" AS WE PREPARE FOR OUR FIRST GAME! "DECK" OF CARDS, THAT IS!
  • The ghost in the library. Good lord, the ghost in the library.
    Ghost: The DRIVEL in this library! I ask you! I mean, that shelf, there? Handwritten, unpublished notes from some tiresome chap..."Da Vinci", I think… That whole section over here? Some boring TIT banging on about a "Riemann Hypothesis" they've cracked! Yawn! That bookshelf at the back? Pull the Balzac out and the shelf next to it MOVES! Health hazard, eh?! Where is all the SMUT, sir? Where are the illustrated geographical "studies" of disrobed tribespeople? Where are the "art" books with the bosoms and the gentlemen statues? I find the lack of good, old fashioned obscenity to be completely indecent! ...I think I need a moment to myself.
  • Redd comes up with several ideas to free Greyson from the cage, from using his picks on the restraints to pointing out the trapdoor in the corner of the cage. Greyson responds to each with increasingly exasperated reminders that he can't move his hands.
