Well, since “the butcher” was a concept that Velda was using to describe the scenario for Jacob…it makes sense. Mavis might not think in the same terms.
Time to do some serious sleuthing. There needs to be found a means to make the killer/killers incriminate themselves so that it separates the genuine cannibals from amongst those 125 names listed.
Still not necessarily trusting Velda, methinks the supermarket theory just went out the window! Clearly, there is _more than one butcher; perhaps they all are butchers, and there are plenty of butchers to step up if any one is taken down!
Ok, this is a complication I wasn’t expecting. But it does hint at a “rotating high council” after all. No one knows who everyone else is, they just know they have to say “I want Vienna sausages for breakfast,” and that there will be a seller showing up nearby soon afterward. Time for a mass roundup then.
I suppose they could move on to the next person on the list, and the next…and the next…until they’ve drained the brains of a whole bunch of Endtowners. Which leaves them with another problem: what do they do with the carcasses?
Pick randomly a dozen of cannibs, brainwash them, collect data, compare data, repeat. Mercy is weakness. I’d even make some cannibs watch the brainwash process to have their personal theory about the cabal. It’s amazing to see the rats dazzled.
There is organisations as the rat mentioned. We had this in germany. A terrorist group called “red army fraction”. The police was searching for the mastermind for years until they realized that there was none. Only randomly meeting groups with changing persons involved coming up with new actions. Still here we have that butcher who must have done it. I wont believe that so many people are involved in that kind of thing. About the rats, i had them on the screen to be conspirative as a whole. Lately i believe that they very much stick to the book of law. except maybe some individuals.
Stupid pet trick. Fake mind reading machine. The rats put together the list by spying and video surveillance and peep-holes. Then they say the computer did it. Jacob can not even pronounce the name of the machine so he is easily fooled by mumbo jumbo “high tech”. Maybe the rats just put people they want to get rid of on the list.
Vanna, I’d like to buy a vowel.Ringleaders wear rings, so arrest everyone with a ring.Talk to the fish and see if they know who’s been dumping offal into the water. If it’ not THE Butcher, likely the dumper would know who the Butcher is.

This Inner circle is a well greased wheel. Bacon grease works pretty good.

Makes sense. Why would a cannibal tell anything to a potential meal? Endtown is truly screwed. God machine time.

Check for Carnivorous Rabbits. Or a Pig on that list.

It’s a background detail but I love the graphics on the screens representing Mavis’ indexed memories. Nice touch.

Okay, how about a candlestick maker? or a Baker?
Or in line with this whole scene, including the weird visuals on the wall: Who is Number One? 8^)

All supermarkets have a butcher… sometimes they might be in the bakery when the deli gets too cold…

Simple answer, they’re all cannibals, let God sort em out! It you recorded Mavis’s confession then you’re golden.
