Dateline: Rappanoc, Maryland -- The Ashcroft Estate

Why is the Detective so unobservant?

  1. The Detective is supposed to mimic your performance in DEADLINE(tm) and The WITNESS(tm), and we all know how well you did on those, don't we?
  2. Well, if the Detective were too good, there wouldn't be much of a role for you, would there?
  3. The Detective will do very few things without being prompted by you. The police examine a few places on their own and, after they are done, they retire to the Ballroom to consider what (if anything) they've learned.
