Josh was still dealing with the repercussions of his mother’s death. He’s been investigated. He now has to stand before a review board and plead his case or he might find himself out of a job. However, his friends couldn’t help him. They couldn’t for one because they would have lost their own jobs. They were also dealing with the bodies found within the wall of a guesthouse for another. They found the body of Benji Herron first. He was the spitting image for Frank Sinatra. He actually made a living for being a Frank Sinatra impersonator and it was only after they pulled him out that they found another impersonator. This time for Joey Bishop.
Joey’s real name was harder to find. He was buried in a wall without his wallet. Like Benji was. They had to run Joey’s fingerprints and that’s how they identified him as Sam Carriman. They usually did joint appearances as being part of the rat pack along with other impersonators. Most people didn’t know who Sam was. Benji was the real star. Benji could easily have jumped ship from their company. The fact he didn’t was probably because he was sleeping with his boss. He was even the father of her baby.
Old Blue Eyes also had a slew of enemies. He recently ticked off a group of tweens. It was a Bah Mitzvah. The family asked for Taylor Swift or Olivia Rodrigo impersonator. Both impersonators got food poisoning at the last minute. Benji went as their replacement. His girlfriend/boss went with him. They both got yelled at by tweens. The girlfriend failed to mention that Sam was also at the party. She initially claimed differently. She didn’t mention Sam or any of the other rat pack. And it was all five at them at that party.
The party was at the Eisenstein home. Their guest house was also where the bodies were found. They must have disappeared right after that party and Sam was dead going into that wall. Benji showed signs that he was sealed in that wall alive. He died a slow and agonizing death. The killer must have really hated him. The other impersonators couldn’t stand him. They all called him a jerk. His girlfriend was the one person that truly misses him. She cried when she was informed of his death. The others, his co-workers, all said he had it coming.
What no one could figure out was why Sam was included? Sam was the sweetest guy. He was often shoved to the background by Benji and that’s what they were arguing about the night they died. Sam was killed in a knife attack. The killer intentionally set out to hurt him. The cuts on Benji were shallower. It was as if they weren’t trying to harm him. He just got in the way. The department thought Sam was placed in the wall first. Benji was placed next and it was assumed at first it was because he walked in on the killer or interrupted them.
This assumption was knocked down when the victims’ blood was found on each other. Benji killed Sam. Sam made shallow cuts on Benji. They got into a knife fight after the party. Their fight must have been really bad for them to what to kill each other. Sam was no match for Benji. Benji was in the military. Sam may have gotten a few lucky shots in, but it wasn’t enough to kill Benji. It just looked like he killed him with his shallow cuts. This in turn lead to someone putting them in the wall to try and cover up what they thought was two people killing each other.
They were just wrong about Benji. The person that killed him had thought he was dead. He was still alive and he came too within those walls. He tried to claw his way out of when he ultimately died. Vegas police thought maybe the exterminator was responsible. He didn’t want them digging in the wall to kill bugs. Only that’s because he loves bugs. He also knew the house’s secrets really well. He could easily have put a body where it couldn’t be found and he explained that in depth to everyone who would listen.
The exterminator was creepy. He just wasn’t their killer. Their killer also wasn’t the Dolly Parton impersonator. Doug was his real name and sure he was having an affair with Benji. That’s because Benji was allergic to monogamy. He cheats on everyone. He girlfriend/boss Lynda saw him leave the guest house with Doug. She was his alibi. He merely wasn’t hers. Lynda’s Liz Taylor impersonation has been a downgrade since she ended up in the wheelchair with a broken ankle. No one has said anything to her because she was still the boss.
Beau ran the feathers from Lynda’s jacket that night. It was a match for the ones found on Sam. Both feathers were tested and it showed it was from the same goose. Lynda killed Benji. It was easy to figure out why. She probably got sick of him cheating. Beau used Randy’s blender to turn the maggots found on Sam into a smoothie. He wanted to know their diet. Their diet was a knockoff of White Diamonds. The Liz Taylor perfume. Lynda was in Liz Taylor getup that night. She was their killer. She even pushed Sam into trying to kill Benji.
Sam was her original plan. Its why she failed to mention he was there that night. She asked Sam to kill Benji and Sam did his best. His best was nothing compared to the military training Benji received. Benji lied about a lot of things. He didn’t lie about that. He killed Sam. Sam merely wounded him. Lynda then had two bodies on her hands and so she put them both in the wall. There was blood found on her wheelchair. She was guilty. She finally confessed to everything. And now she was going to lose custody of her baby while she’s in prison.
And after Max destroyed Josh in front of the board. She then fought for him by saying he was too good to pass on and that she would do more than protest if he gets dismissed. And so Josh was suspended without pay, but he still keeps his job.
The End
