Season One · The Halloran Case
Nobody looked
into it
Emmett Halloran, the private investigator who had this office before Mr. Apple, was murdered nine months ago. The case was closed without ever really being opened.
Many people knew him. One of them killed him. Mr. Apple talks to one of them every week, live, in Vell.

How an episode works
They come in
The phone rings, Vera says there is someone here to see you, and Mr. Apple talks to them for an hour.
A tape opens
Halloran recorded everything, and he interviewed all twelve before he died. When the hour is over, one of his tapes comes off the shelf.
The accounts don't match
The tape plays after the guest has gone, so they never hear it and can't explain it. The gap is the clue.
The tape shelf
Four hundred unlabelled tapes in the office cellar, and no index: Halloran couldn’t keep one. These are the ones that have been opened.

The houses
Everyone in the city belongs to one of them, or is conspicuous for belonging to none. Five will take you. You choose once.
Where it stands
2 of the twelve have been sat across from that desk, and 2 tapes have been opened. None of the accounts have matched.
