NOTE: I got this from another list and thought it would be fun to do something different for the next few days. This is used with permission. I hope you all throw in your guesses. If you happen to be a member of the list I got this from, please do not guess.

CAST OF CHARACTERS
Joe...Mr. Scarlett
Sav...Mr. Peacock
Viv...Prof. Plum
Rick...Mr. White
Phil...Mr. Green
Malvin...Col. Mustard
Peter Mensch...Mr. Boddy

INTRODUCTION The guys have been transformed into the beloved characters of the mystery game "Clue."

The scenario is the same, but the characters are not your average Miss Scarlett. It's hard enough trying to imagine Joe and Sav with big knockers! (not pretty!)

So...here we go.

SCENARIO On a dark and stormy night at Mensch Mansion, Mr. Mensch was pacing back and forth through the big, empty house.

He had some of his biggest clients over for a weekend retreat. They were sound asleep.

He smoked a pipe and a flash of lightning accompanied with a loud crash of thunder. The wind blew hard outside and he focused on the Walnut tree outside bending and creaking. He continued to wander until he came to a room.

But then, in the darkness of that room, appeared a figure. It was carrying a weapon in his hand.

Before Peter could turn and defend himself...he was on the floor, dead.

The morning dawned and Mr. Peacock (Sav) finds his body. It had been dragged from the room by the murderer and placed in a spot where somebody would find him.

Later that night, the rock stars gathered in the Study to discuss what they can do now that Mr. Mensch was dead.

"We have to find out who did this." said Mr. Green (Phil).

"How are we going to do that?" asked Mr. Scarlett (Joe), smoking a cigarette.

"First," said Professor Plum (Viv), "We have to break it down to the nine rooms. Study, Dining, Library, Billiard, Conservatory, Hall, Kitchen, Ballroom and Lounge."

"Right!" said Col. Mustard (Malvin), smoking his cigar, "Next, we have to figure out which one of these weapons did the deed. We got a knife, a lead pipe, a revolver, a candlestick, a wrench and some rope."

"But then comes the worst part." said Mr. White (Rick).

"Which is...?" asked Mr. Peacock (Sav).

"We have to figure out which one of us did it." said Mr. Green (Phil).

They started to turn around and look at one another, wondering who amongst them was the murderer of Mr. Mensch.

So...who do you think did it? Where do you think they did it? And what did they use to do it with?

At the end of each part, I shall hand you a clue and it's up to you, the readers, to figure out not only the room where the murder took place and with what, but the identity of which Lep is...GASP!...the murderer of Mr. Mensch.

So, as an added bonus, here is your first clue.

CLUE 1:

A place of great thought, both in mind and body. However, it is not often found inside of a house.
