    True enough. But my read is that the guy opened up the flip phone to answer it: If he were just concerned that it was still in the drawer where he left it, he wouldn’t have had to pick it up. And if he wanted to move it to a safer place, he could have grabbed it without opening it.

    By the time Tracy gets to the scene, the phone(s) may be gone. The selfie may turn up in the cloud, but the person on the other end of the flip phone call is a potential witness. Unless it was the killer, of course.

    I like this analysis. My vote is that the “jingle” is the ringing flip phone — something the artist could have made clearer by having the sound effect “get louder” in the drawer-opening panel.

    Maybe I’ve seen too many episodes of Better Call Saul, but my first thought is that the flip phone is a “burner,” used exclusively for untraceable communication with a single client, perhaps one with a dangerous or unsavory reputation. Perhaps even the shooter himself?

    Deerfield was one of the inspirations for The Holdovers, the prep-school holiday tale that you might still be able to catch at the cineplex. (Two thumbs up from me.) Deerfield was also one of several real-life schools used as shooting locations for the movie, and the actor who plays the main student role in the story attended Deerfield and was “discovered” there by the filmmakers.

    She’s left more than the suspected murder weapon behind. Does MCU need a warrant to dust that locker for prints?
