Week Two Summary

On Monday, Jordan got in a fight with a fellow student who is a known homosexual and claims it was because of a sexual advance. Although he was not suspended or reprimanded for the fight it did draw some media attention, which later brought more media to the death of Kelly. As the mystery around Kelly’s death is becoming more complex the national news networks have now picked up the story, and of all people, Richie was the person who allowed himself to be interviewed on camera. Antonio was interviewed by the police about Kelly’s death, and when the other students began to question him about his potential involvement, the police absolved him on his alibi that he was cooking tofu kabobs with his grandmother. The police later hinted that they were conducting a murder investigation in an audio clip that was captured by a reporter.

That Saturday Kelly’s twitter account led Richie and Liz to the school where they discovered an Olive Garden receipt with “Come to dinner with Kyle and I – 8:30 tonight” written on it. A scavenger hunt over the course of Saturday and into the night leads them to find an envelope with a file containing information from the counseling office that says Becca showed signs of jealousy and resentment towards Kelly.

Week Three Summary

Now that suspicion is landing on Becca about her possible resentment of Kelly the rest of the group begins to question her. The school thinks that Becca stole the file from the office, however she denies involvement. The school has also become aware of the strange posts on Kelly’s twitter account and is now involved in trying to figure out who is doing the posting. Another post from Kelly reveals that Becca had been rejected by Jordan the night of Kelly's tragedy, this rumor eventually leading to her breaking down in front of everyone at the pep rally that week. Becca decided to cancel her Halloween party in light of this rumor, but changed her mind after Richie convinced her otherwise. The school however has found out about the party and warned the students not to go.
Before the students could decide what to do Kelly posted a picture of her in her Halloween costume from last year, claiming that she would be at the party. At the party they find a girl in Kelly’s costume, although after chasing her down they find out that it was Richie's sister in the costume. She claims that Jordan left the costume and a note in her locker instructing her to come to the party in the costume, but the note appears to be written by someone else. Just as things seem to be getting to weird for words however Richie is arrested on Sunday at his home by dozens of police and SWAT members.

Week Six Summary

After talking to Liz, Becca decided that she needed to look into the possibility of Liz’s claim. In Liz’s backseat Richie found a friendship bracelet that belonged to Kelly, making Liz’s story a little more plausible. Antonio hears about the bracelet and asks Richie for it as a keepsake of Kelly’s memory. Meanwhile the suspicion around Bottomfeeder25 was raised when Becca began talking to him and his story of being a student at a different school didn’t seem to add up. Richie and Becca enlist the help of Antonio to hack into the account and find out whose it is. They discovered that it belonged to principal Morris. Morris is later arrested when Richies dad sees him wandering around the school late Wednesday night, which led to the police discovering that Morris had a surveillance room that was linked to dozens of cameras placed all over town and the school. This leads the authorities to believe that Morris might have been involved in Kellys death, particularly because the tweeting from Kelly’s account has stopped since the arrest. After another visit to Liz in the hospital, Becca finds out that Kelly was trying to hand Liz the bracelet when she was tied up, and Richie thinks he knows where Kelly might be.
