Battler hitting Maria on the head twice gave me a good dose of laughs, though considering the plot, I'm not too sure that's a good thing. I'm thinking along the lines that Beatrice actually exists. The corpse-disfiguring theory doesn't seem to hold up that well since the doc said that they had been killed six hours beforehand. It would have to involve bringing in a person who looks like the culprit to the island, and killing said person at the same time as the other five.

I don't think most of us have played the VN. So please, use spoilers if you refer to it.
