Of course the D1 lynch happened. How did you think **Lakai** , the vote leader, died? Losing the Investigative Journalist sucks, of course, but this is why we have an understudy. Unless we lose the Cop or the Seer tonight (knock wood, I hope not!), the Understudy should probably pick up the Investigative Journalist role. The simplest interpretation of that set of kills is that the Mafia killed **Normal** , and the Wolf Outrider killed **septimus** , who apparently was actually self-protecting (I was kind of hoping that he wouldn’t, just to fake out the Outrider). Apparently the Wolves didn’t share **septimus** ’ assessment that he wasn’t worth killing, because he didn’t interfere with him. Alternately, of course, it’s possible that **septimus** wasn’t self-protecting, and one of those deaths was from a third party. We’ll know more by Dusk 2, I guess (when it’d be obvious if we again have a second non-lynch death). --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/mafia-reunion-day-one/776577)._
