To Die or Not to Die

To Die or Not to Die (Case #22) is the twenty-second case of the game and the first in the Historical Center. The victim was an actor named Jacob Dawks. He was crushed by a sandbag on the stage of Grimsborough Theater.

The killer was the stage director, Phineas Fine, who killed Jacob because he considered the victim a bad actor and thought that he would ruin his peace. According to Phineas, Jacob was ruining Phineas' new play called Hamlet since he was a bad actor. Phineas had also tried to fire Jacob a lot of times but the victim refused to leave. He said that Jacob had a bad tone and that he used to misbehave with everyone. The killer also said that Jacob had to be replaced, or the theater company would be bankrupt before the end of the month.
