And Then There Were None

When Armstrong and Lombard discuss the legitimacy of the suicide claims for Marston and Mrs. Rogers. Lombard tells him that he cannot believe two suicides would happen in such close proximity and Armstrong agrees, adding that no one carries around Potassium Cyanide. This means that both were murdered. They think on the “Ten Little Indian Boys” rhyme. The first Indian Boy dies from “choking,” just as Marston did. The second dies from oversleeping. Mrs. Rogers, they note, overslept herself “with a vengeance.” Lombard reminds Armstrong that they are on an island and that there are only so many places for someone named U.N. Owen to hide. They decide to enlist Blore to help them search the island and find this Mr. Owen.
