    EPISODE 1

    Case #1: The Last Toast

    A lavish Georgian banquet. Fine wine poured. Civil smiles exchanged. By the end of the night, someone will pay the price. In this debut episode of Murder Through Time, a single evening in Georgian Bath becomes a puzzle of motive and opportunity. Those gathered for the night find themselves caught in a web of resentment, secrecy, and quiet calculation, where even the smallest gesture may conceal intent. Are you ready to catch the culprit? **************************************** How to Play Along As you listen, keep your ears sharp for clues — words chosen too carefully, silences that linger, objects out of place, and coincidences that refuse to be innocent. I’ll introduce you to the suspects, guide you through the setting, and walk you step by step through the events of the evening. The method will reveal itself. Motives will surface, fracture, and collide. Your task is to decide who caused the death — and why. You’re welcome to take notes as we go. A scrap of paper will do. But beware. Not every clue leads to the truth. Red herrings linger in the shadows, waiting to pull you off course. When we reach the end, you’ll have a moment to lock in your verdict before the truth is revealed. Think you can outwit the culprit? Let’s begin. Created, written, and hosted by Carissa V. **************************************** Music Attribution: Dian Shuai/Gavotte de Papillons/courtesy of Epidemic Sound Lennon Hutton/Static Breath/courtesy of Epidemic Sound Christian Andersen/Final Days of Captivity/courtesy of Epidemic Sound Intro & Outro: Luella Gren/Midnight Wanderer/courtesy of Epidemic Sound SFX Attribution: All sound effects courtesy of Epidemic Sound www.epidemicsound.com

    Welcome, sleuth, to tonight's case! Step behind the vermilion walls of the Forbidden City during the reign of Emperor Kangxi (1661-1722), where ritual and rank govern every movement, and silence can speak louder than words. Tonight, a quiet death in the Inner Court shakes the carefully ordered world of Grand Secretary Xu Wenjin. Was it misfortune, misapplied routine, or something far more deliberate? **************************************** How to Play Along As you listen, keep your ears sharp for clues- things people say, things they don't say, suspicious objects, and strange coincidences. I'll introduce you to the suspects, take you through the key locations, and walk you step-by-step through the events leading to the death. Your mission? Decide who caused the death and how it happened. You can jot down notes as we go, a scrap of paper will do. But beware, there will be red herrings lurking in the shadows, ready to throw you off the scent. When we reach the end, I'll give you a moment to lock in your guess... before revealing the truth. Think you can outwit the culprit? Then let's begin... **************************************** Music Attribution: Dream Cave/ The Investigator /courtesy of Epidemic Sound JH Coleman/ Entering Madness /courtesy of Epidemic Sound Lennon Hutton/ Static Breath /courtesy of Epidemic Sound Intro & Outro: Luella Gren/ Midnight Wanderer /courtesy of Epidemic Sound SFX Attribution: All sound effects courtesy of Epidemic Sound www.epidemicsound.com **************************************** Created, written, and hosted by Carissa V.
