- Nooo
- He Lay In a Pool Of Blood

- What should I do now? Quick....think...
- Our story opens with the heroine waiting for her husband to return from work: ("Each minute gone by made it nearer the time when he would come home.") They appear to be happily married. She is the perfect wife and is expecting their first child.
- She Arranges Her Alibi
- Silly me, Sam, I ran out of vegetables for our tea!
- Oh well, all sorted now!
- Their happy evening is ruined when he confesses that he is leaving her: ("This is going to be a bit of a shock to you, I'm afraid."). In shock, she takes out a frozen lamb leg to prepare supper, until he shouts at her in a temper that he is going out.
- The Police Arrive To Investigate
- It's a mystery
- You've been here so long...please have some supper
- She hits him over the head with the frozen meat, killing him immediately, The she realises she will be executed if she is caught. She must make a plan: ("What were the laws about murderers with unborn children?")
- The Evidence Is Hidden
- Great meal, shame we didn't find the weapon!
- Probably right under our noses...
- She heads to the shop where she spins a tale about her husband being too tired to eat out, leaving her short of vegetables for their meal. She appears like the perfect concerned housewife: ("Good night Mrs Maloney, and thank you.")
- MEAT!
- Back home, she calls the police, claiming to have found her husband dead. They search for hours but cannot find the murder weapon. Eventually she persuades them to eat the supper she had cooked: ("It'd be a a favour to me if you'd eat it up.")
- No cluesanywhere!
- It wasn't me!
- The policemen devour their meal, and discuss the fact that they can't find the murder weapon, even though it must be nearby: ("Probably right under our very noses!") The woman, knowing they have just eaten it, giggles to herself behind their backs.
- Hahaha
- Fools
