Unfortunately, his wounds were open again when Charlie found about it in a newspaper and showed it to Isaac, reviving his trauma.

*PleaseWakeUp: Maddie implores Charlie to wake up when you find his body, breaking down crying when she realizes he's really dead.

*SomebodySetUpUsTheBomb: Rose asked Charlie to build a bomb so she could detonate it near Lawson and kill him once and for all, but Charlie refused to build such a "monstrosity" for her. Later, Charlie uses these bomb's blueprints to convince Lawson he's the only traitor inside the Squad and only he should die instead of the entire team.
*SparedButNotForgiven: Maddie ends up on these terms with Diego in the end, understanding why he killed Charlie but being incapable of bringing herself to forgive him.
-->'''Maddie:''' I don't think I can ever forgive Diego for killing Charlie, no matter what the intentions. But maybe... maybe I should make my peace with him.
*ISurrenderSuckers: Judge Umbright [[IHaveYourWife kidnaps Maddie's baby]] with the intent of forcing the Squad surrender themselves to her. They do... right before electrocuting Umbright with a booby-trapped baby rattle.
*ThisIsSomethingHesGotToDoHimself: When you find Charlie's body and Isaac offers to cover for a distraught Maddie, she tells him she'll be the only one allowed to find out who murdered her husband.
*TrackingDevice: Charlie crafted one of these that Diego was supposed to plant somewhere on Lawson's clothes, which he only managed to do after Charlie's death.
*TragicKeepsake: Charlie's diary becomes this for Maddie when she finds it among his belongings.
*UndyingLoyalty: Judge Umbright is shown to have an obsessive form of this towards Lawson, having no problem kidnapping a newborn and sending his mother towards her death if she can show Lawson she's his most fanatical devotee.
*UnintentionalFinalMessage: Charlie was planning on creating a series of short films for George to watch as he grew up, but only managed to finish one before his death, which served as a final message to him and Maddie.
*VillainBall: Instead of alerting Lawson and the Justice Corps that the Flying Squad is going to surrender to her, Judge Umbright decides to wait for them alone, which gets her easily overpowered and knocked out. Granted, she's shown to be crazy and wanting to get all the credit for arresting the Flying Squad, but still.
*ViolenceIsNotAnOption / ViolenceIsTheOnlyOption: Maddie and Rose get into a brief argument regarding this when you discover Rose asked Charlie to build a bomb, intending to kill Lawson and ends his reign of terror through the violent way.
-->'''Rose:''' People are suffering at the hands of Lawson, Maddie! Many are barely surviving, only able to eat these blasted ration biscuits, like me. The time for diplomacy is over!
-->'''Maddie:''' That's where you're wrong! It's times like these when our steadfast integrity is needed most. If you resort to violence, Rose, you're no better than Lawson!
*ViolenceReallyIsTheAnswer: In the end, Lawson is promptly defeated by being killed by Isaac instead of arrested like the Flying Squad and LaResistance intended. Granted, Isaac and Chief Wright are still saddened it had to come to his death.
*WeCanRuleTogether: During their final confrontation, Lawson expresses disappointment in the Flying Squad (and especially the player), believing that they could have helped him usher Concordia into a peaceful, crime-free era even if it involved becoming part of his tyrannical dictatorship.
*WellIntentionedExtremist: Even during his final moments, it's clear Lawson saw himself as this, believing his actions were justified if they meant Concordia would be free of crime.
-->'''Lawson:''' Reign of terror? Who do you suppose has been fighting those who are a blemish on Concordia? Combatting the corrupt leaders, keeping the gangs at bay?
-->I have brought order and peace to this great city! I have once again made the streets of Concordia safe for all its citizens! It is I who have restored justice!
* WhatTheHellHero:After Diego admits As a result of all the suspects being good yet flawed people, they get some scold from Maddie in one form of another.
**Isaac gets berated for not following Charlie when he told Isaac to let him go to thecrime, airship alone, which resulted in his death.
**Rose for wanting Charlie to build a bomb, which she would've used to kill Lawson by detonating it in public.
**Chief Wright for wanting to fire Charlie after Lawson blackmailed him with Bernadine.
**Constable Ramirez for hiding he went inside the airship and stumbled onto Charlie's body.
**Even Dick, who isn't a suspect, gets absolutely chewed on by Maddie because he let Judge Umbright kidnap her son under his watch.
**Of course, the most clear example is Diego, whom tearful Maddie asks why it had to come to her husband’sdeath.

* BittersweetEnding: Mayor Lawson is stopped for good and, under Lady Highmore's rulership as the interim mayor of Concordia, free press is restored, the [[StateSec Justice Corps]] are dismantled, and [[SympatheticMurderer Giulietta, Enzo, and Adelia]] await for new, fairer trials than they ones they received under Lawson's regime (with the latter even possibly getting pardon for her crime), returning peace back to the city and starting a new chapter for its citizens. However, [[HeroicSacrifice all of this comes at the cost]] of Charlie's life and Diego's freedom and friendship to the rest of the Squad. Despite this, Maddie eventually makes peace with Diego and promises to plead in his behalf during his trial, [[TheAtoner and Diego prepares to live out his punishment for killing Charlie in peace.]]
*BoobyTrap: Judge Umbright is taken out after she's given a baby rattle to inspect, which had been modified by Rose to give her an incapacitating electrical shock.
*CapturedOnPurpose: Giulietta and Enzo turn themselves to the authorities after Lady Highmore becomes the new mayor, deciding to await for a fair trial.
* ChekhovsGun: The {{Bulletproof Vest}}s designed by Rose in [[Recap/CriminalCaseMysteriesOfThePastCase52AStudyInPink Case 52]] end up saving the day with Isaac is revealed to have been wearing one, protecting him from Lawson's AttackOnTheHeart and allowing him to take down the mayor himself.
*TheClimax: For the Capitol Peak district.
*ContinuityNod:
**When you find Charlie's DNA machine broken, Maddie recalls how he designed it for the [[Recap/CriminalCaseMysteriesOfThePastCenturyMileDistrict World Exhibition.]]
**The confrontation with Judge Umbright takes place in [[Recap/CriminalCaseMysteriesOfThePastCase56ResistanceIsFatal Smokey's Café.]]
**During his UnintentionalFinalMessage, Charlie mentions [[Recap/CriminalCaseMysteriesOfThePastCase21BlueBlazes that one time Dick set himself on fire]], [[Recap/CriminalCaseMysteriesOfThePastCase27LittleMurderOnThePrairie Ramirez letting the birds loose in Coyote Gorge]], and [[Recap/CriminalCaseMysteriesOfThePastCase22Overkill Charlie and Maddie pretending to be a couple to fool Maddie's mother.]]
* CrazyPrepared: Turns out Isaac made sure to borrow one of Rose's {{Bulletproof Vest}}s for the final confrontation with Lawson, which ended up saving his life.
*CrusadingWidower: Despite the Justice Corps still being on the hunt for the Flying Squad, Maddie is more than decided in finding her husband's killer even at the risk of being found out.
*CryIntoChest: Maddie cries into Isaac's chest when you discover Charlie's body.
*DarkestHour: Continuing from the Flying Squad being declared public enemies and Lawson ordering the Justice Corps to KillOnSight, things become even more awry after Charlie is murdered by none other than a member of the Flying Squad, not to mention Judge Umbright kidnapping Maddie's son to booth.
*
* BittersweetEnding: Lawson
*DressingAsTheEnemy: One of the reasons why Diego
* CrazyPrepared: Turns out Isaac made sure to borrow one
*EndingMemorialService: One of the last tasks during the Additional Investigation is attending Charlie's funeral, where Maddie gives her last farewells and thanks him for his HeroicSacrifice.
* HarmlessElectrocution: Judge Umbright
* HeroicSacrifice: Charlie let himself be shot by the disguised Diego
-->'''Maddie:''' I still can't believe someone killed him... and right now our only suspects are his closest friends! This makes no sense!
*FaintInShock: Maddie faints in despair when Dick tells her Judge Umbright has kidnapped her son
*FakeDefector: Despite the Concordian Police Department being part of Lawson's StateSec, Constable Ramirez only pretends to be part of his henchmen, as he's shown to be in good terms with the Squad and doesn't rat them out to Lawson despite him asking Ramirez to be on the lookout for them.
*FakingTheDead: When Lawson shots Isaac in the heart during the final confrontation, Isaac pretends to die right in front of him to catch him off guard when Isaac reveals he's wearing a BulletproofVest.
*FinalBattle: Elicits between Isaac, Chief Wright and the player versus Lawson and the Justice Corps atop Concordia Tower.
*FiringDay: During the investigation, you learn Chief Wright was intending to fire Charlie from the Squad. While at first he tells you he was only doing it to protect him and Maddie from Lawson, it's later revealed he was going to do it because Lawson was blackmailing him with Bernadine's life.
*FrameUp: An unintentional example with Rose, who becomes a suspect when you discover Charlie was killed with her gun when Lawson handed it over to Diego.
*GetItOverWith: When Lawson orders Diego/Lebold to kill Charlie with the promise of sparing the rest of the Squad if he does so, Charlie orders him to get it over with.
-->'''Charlie:''' Well, what are you waiting for, Lebold? Shoot! Kill me, and save my wife and child! You know that is [[ThePlan True Justice!]]
*
*HeroicBSOD: Maddie goes through a massive one in this case, to the point she suffers from FaintInShock at one point.
-->'''Viola:''' My dear Madeline. How are you holding up?
-->'''Madeline:''' Well, Viola. My husband has been murdered and my baby boy has been kidnapped. How do you think I'm holding up?
* HeroicSacrifice: The true reason for Charlie's death is revealed to be this: Diego (dressed as Lebold) asked Charlie to meet in the airship with the intention of discussing ThePlan, but Lawson caught them in the act ordered Diego to kill Charlie, who pretended to be the sole traitor inside of the Squad so Lawson would only kill him and spare the rest of the team while also giving Diego enough time to plant the TrackingDevice in Lawson's clothes.
* IHaveYourWife:
**As if losing Charlie wasn’t bad enough for Maddie,
**Lawson was blackmailing Chief Wright with Bernadine's life if he didn't fire Charlie from the Squad (probably concluding he was the most dangerous out of them due to being a GadgeteerGenius), which Chief Wright was decided to do before Charlie died.
*HopelessSuitor: {{Subverted}}. During the investigation, you find a note from Diego telling Charlie to "never tell Maddie about this," and when you interrogate him he says Charlie had found out about Diego being in love with Maddie. However, during his arrest, Diego confesses said message was actually about ThePlan to stop Lawson, which Diego didn't want anyone else to discover as it could put its integrity at risk.
*HowDareYouDieOnMe: Maddie reacts this way regarding Charlie's death at one point, though it's clear she doesn't actually mean it and is only grieving.
-->'''Maddie:''' How COULD he do this to us, to his son?! How could... how...
-->['''''Maddie cries''''']
*IllKillYou: Lawson gives a variation of this during the final confrontation with him.
-->'''Isaac:''' Do you really intend on shooting us? Is that your definition of justice?!
-->'''Justin:''' [[SuddenlyShouting YOU KNOW NOTHING OF JUSTICE!]] You have defied me for too long, <Player's Name>!
-->I hereby sentence you to death!
*ItsAllMyFault: During the main investigation, you discover the real reason for Isaac's fear of horses is that, when he was a child, he and his little brother were riding horses until Isaac got cocky and tried to show his brother off, but the horse lost control and ended up trampling him to death, which traumatized Isaac. Unfortunately, his wounds were open again when Charlie found about it in a newspaper and showed it to Isaac, reviving his trauma.
*JustFollowingOrders: When Isaac kills Lawson in front of the Justice Corps and cockily shows he's wearing a BulletproofVest, Officer Smythe implores you to not shoot at them, claiming they were only following Lawson's orders.
*KarmicDeath: After ordering Diego to shot Charlie in the heart and attempting to do the same with Isaac, Lawson is ultimately killed when he promptly receives a bullet in the same place.
*LuredIntoATrap: {{Subverted}}. During the investigation, you discover Charlie went to the airship because someone sent him a Morse code message asking him to meet up there, which prompts Maddie and the player to assume he was lured to a death trap by his killer. However, this turns out to not be the case.
*MonumentalBattle: The final confrontation takes place atop of the Concordia Tower, the city's most notable landmark.
*MoralityChainBeyondTheGrave: Maddie decides to make amends with Diego in prison because Charlie wouldn't have wanted her to hate him.
*MustMakeAmends: As detailed above, Maddie ops to make amends with Diego during his stay in prison, believing that's what Charlie would've wanted.
*NoOntologicalInertia: {{Subverted}}. As expected of a city that was under [[MayorPain Lawson's]] control for half a year, getting everything back in order takes some time for the Squad, Lady Highmore, and its citizens to achieve.
*TheOnlyOne: The Flying Squad nominates Lady Highmore for interim mayor because she's the only one with the necessary shrewdness and acumen to lead Concordia in these difficult times.
*ThePlan: Diego and Charlie had a secret one codenamed True Justice, which involved Diego (under the guise of Lebold) infiltrating Lawson's inner circle with the intent of planting on him a TrackingDevice created by Charlie, which would allow the Flying Squad to safely arrest him.
*PleaseIWillDoAnything: After his arrest, Diego implores you to let him help defeat Lawson and be forgiven, giving you the location of the TrackingDevice and fixing it.
*PleaseWakeUp: Maddie implores Charlie to wake up when you find his body, breaking down crying when she realizes he's really dead.
* PlotHole: In this case, Charlie is shot to death. The framing device for this season is the player character reading Charlie's journal. So... who wrote about this case, then?[[note]]
*PovertyFood: One of the killer's traits is that they eat ration biscuits, which have become a common place due to Lawson's regime impoverishing everyone.
*ProneToTears: Maddie justifiably cries a lot during this case and its aftermath.
*QuakingWithFear: Diego's sprite (particularly his arm) is seen shaking moments before he kills Charlie, asking him for forgiveness.
*SeasonFinale: For ''[[VideoGame/CriminalCaseMysteriesOfThePast Mysteries of the Past.]]''
*SequelHook: At the very end of the case, you're greeted by a message telling you [[VideoGame/CriminalCaseTheConspiracy you'll be back to Grimsborough to uncover troubling secrets.]]
*ShootYourMate: Lawson orders Diego to kill Charlie while he's disguised as Eddie Lebold to prove his worth. Hadn't it been for the fact only Lawson could order the Justice Corps to not shoot the Flying Squad on sight, Diego would've killed Lawson instead.
*ShoutOut:
** In the Charlie's Laboratory scene, there is a [[Literature/{{Pinocchio}} wooden puppet with a long nose]].
** In the Lab Equipment scene, there is a bust of Creator/MarkTwain.
** [[Literature/{{Frankenstein}} Victor Frankenstein]] and J.M. Barrie are mentioned.
*SomebodySetUpUsTheBomb: Rose asked Charlie to build a bomb so she could detonate it near Lawson and kill him once and for all, but Charlie refused to build such a "monstrosity" for her. Later, Charlie uses these bomb's blueprints to convince Lawson he's the only traitor inside the Squad and only he should die instead of the entire team.
*SparedButNotForgiven: Maddie ends up on these terms with Diego in the end, understanding why he killed Charlie but being incapable of bringing herself to forgive him.
-->'''Maddie:''' I don't think I can ever forgive Diego for killing Charlie, no matter what the intentions. But maybe... maybe I should make my peace with him.
*ISurrenderSuckers: Judge Umbright [[IHaveYourWife kidnaps Maddie's baby]] with the intent of forcing the Squad surrender themselves to her. They do... right before electrocuting Umbright with a booby-trapped baby rattle.
*ThisIsSomethingHesGotToDoHimself: When you find Charlie's body and Isaac offers to cover for a distraught Maddie, she tells him she'll be the only one allowed to find out who murdered her husband.
*TrackingDevice: Charlie crafted one of these that Diego was supposed to plant somewhere on Lawson's clothes, which he only managed to do after Charlie's death.
*TragicKeepsake: Charlie's diary becomes this for Maddie when she finds it among his belongings.
*UndyingLoyalty: Judge Umbright is shown to have an obsessive form of this towards Lawson, having no problem kidnapping a newborn and sending his mother towards her death if she can show Lawson she's his most fanatical devotee.
*UnintentionalFinalMessage: Charlie was planning on creating a series of short films for George to watch as he grew up, but only managed to finish one before his death, which served as a final message to him and Maddie.
*VillainBall: Instead of alerting Lawson and the Justice Corps that the Flying Squad is going to surrender to her, Judge Umbright decides to wait for them alone, which gets her easily overpowered and knocked out. Granted, she's shown to be crazy and wanting to get all the credit for arresting the Flying Squad, but still.
*ViolenceIsNotAnOption / ViolenceIsTheOnlyOption: Maddie and Rose get into a brief argument regarding this when you discover Rose asked Charlie to build a bomb, intending to kill Lawson and ends his reign of terror through the violent way.
-->'''Rose:''' People are suffering at the hands of Lawson, Maddie! Many are barely surviving, only able to eat these blasted ration biscuits, like me. The time for diplomacy is over!
-->'''Maddie:''' That's where you're wrong! It's times like these when our steadfast integrity is needed most. If you resort to violence, Rose, you're no better than Lawson!
*ViolenceReallyIsTheAnswer: In the end, Lawson is promptly defeated by being killed by Isaac instead of arrested like the Flying Squad and LaResistance intended. Granted, Isaac and Chief Wright are still saddened it had to come to his death.
*WeCanRuleTogether: During their final confrontation, Lawson expresses disappointment in the Flying Squad (and especially the player), believing that they could have helped him usher Concordia into a peaceful, crime-free era even if it involved becoming part of his tyrannical dictatorship.
*WellIntentionedExtremist: Even during his final moments, it's clear Lawson saw himself as this, believing his actions were justified if they meant Concordia would be free of crime.
-->'''Lawson:''' Reign of terror? Who do you suppose has been fighting those who are a blemish on Concordia? Combatting the corrupt leaders, keeping the gangs at bay?
-->I have brought order and peace to this great city! I have once again made the streets of Concordia safe for all its citizens! It is I who have restored justice!
* WhatTheHellHero:
**Isaac gets berated for not following Charlie when he told Isaac to let him go to the
**Rose for wanting Charlie to build a bomb, which she would've used to kill Lawson by detonating it in public.
**Chief Wright for wanting to fire Charlie after Lawson blackmailed him with Bernadine.
**Constable Ramirez for hiding he went inside the airship and stumbled onto Charlie's body.
**Even Dick, who isn't a suspect, gets absolutely chewed on by Maddie because he let Judge Umbright kidnap her son under his watch.
