I think you guys are right, Henry is really the mental one, not JD, something happened in their childhood. Henry and Jimmy both have had time and the ability to pull off the murders and no alibis during the murders except that call from UM to Henry, but I now thin Henry made that call. Henry is my prime suspect, Jimmy is my second, odd Jimmy and Sherriff became buddies after Abby was sent away.

I know a lot of movies keep that a secret until the end, so the actor doesn't translate that in their performance.

Henry and Abby are twins born to Abby's mom and John Wakefield. Maybe Henry's always known this, but maybe he only learned about it after Wakefield was killed. Henry is out the revenge the death of his father by becoming his copycat killer.

Each of the murder victims (except Lucy) could be victims of bad karma. Hunter, Thomas, Richard, Malcolm and possibly Uncle Marty had each done something underhanded before they were murdered. If Henry is involved with the murders then someone else is doing it in his behalf. It was after dark when Henry dug up Wakefield's coffin and it was also after dark when Richard got speared with the harpoon. If Henry was planning to be lying in wait to kill Richard then it wouldn't make any sense for Henry to run off with Abby to exhume Wakefield because he would have no idea how long they would take to do that and Henry would also have to go and get the harpoon because he certainly didn't have it when he was with Abby. I've watched the scene 3 times and I still think that the man that Abby saw cutting the hedges at Candlewick with the chainsaw is Booth. It was the real Candlewick Inn groundskeeper that gave Malcolm the bag of money. We do see someone going after Abby with the chainsaw at the Candlewick hedgerow in one of the previews.

X although it seems to grow less likely that he's not w/each episode, still crossing my fingers that, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, the writers actually know what they're doing and the editors don't butcher it completely.

They keep on mentioning his parents death, etc. I wouldn't doubt if he killed his parents and threatened JD, which is why JD has so many problems...he probably killed JD's girlfriend too. The one he mentioned last night who "committed suicide" when they were in high school.

Yeah, but I believe she cries later on, and seems genuinely upset. Could be wrong, though.

A) thechainsaw guy is not Booth. Did you miss the picture comparison a few pages back? B) I don't think it's"Karma" that's killing Hunter/Richard/Malcolm as much as it fits the story to kill them when they did, because it gives each victim a plausible excuse to turn up missing so no one suspects anything. Hunter is supposed to be gone. Richard ran away to dodge the authorities. Malcolm ran off with the money bag. Mr. Wellington died in plain sight so there was no hiding that one. I don't think it's going to be anything Saw-like with victims being punished for their "sins" as much as it's gonna just be that Henry is a batsh*t crazy sociopath who did all this wedding stuff just to pick everyone off for amusement or to flex his muscle over the rich folk who have looked down on him. Or if we're lucky, Maggie or Beth is just a psychopath :-) Last Edited By: Simdog11 05/31/09 10:17 AM. Edited 1 times.

This means the guy with the scarred face, the deputy that found the hearing aid, Robin, the gardener, or even old lady Julia cannot be the killer. Also this crosses off any possibility of Booth assisting Henry, Cal and Chloe being a psycho killing couple, or the crazy Clue ending. Every promo for this show has said 25 suspects, 1 killer. This is a quote from Karim Zreik's blog "Notes of an Assassin. He was in charge of telling the cast members if they were going to die in the next episode. http://www.televisionwithoutpity.com/blogs/guest/notes-of-an-assassin/ My name is Karim Zreik, co-executive producer of the TV series Harper's Island, premiering Thursday, April 9, at 10 PM ET/PT on CBS. For those who haven't heard of the show, I'll give you a quick synopsis: Harper's Island is a 13-week murder mystery event in which every week at least one or more of our characters are killed off... say it with me..."one by one." Twenty-five suspects, but only one killer among them. It's scary, gory, funny, soapy, dramatic, character-driven and action-packed. Last Edited By: Crowlass 05/31/09 10:17 AM. Edited 1 times.

He's just chilling, possibly eating his scones, and all of a sudden he's in a air and whacked. Too fun. In terms of coolest death, probably Wellington's death.
