More theories... good good. Although nobody seems to have picked up on one of my last hints.
Guess I can throw another bone on the pile, but this is the last!

There is a very high possibility of me speculating just the finest bullshit here. But if not, I guess you're talking about the condition that Greg mentioned at the end of ep19, saying that if any inheritor share his/her conditions with other beneficiary then their rights over the inheritance become null and void. Later, in ep22 if you invite Bella to the BH she tells MC that Elaine told her explicitly about her conditions, in addition to MC's conditions, the latter a bait which MC buys and says "yea correct", which worries me that it can be considered as the MC accusing his own conditions and therefore at risk of losing everything (if Bella is the third one, and specially if she's the viper). But on this last point, it would make no sense that Cheeky wants MC to blow away his money so easily (should have at least given the option to choose actions and the yellow "big decision" warning) so maybe this was not big deal. Or maybe it really is, and part of the plot soon to come is an adventure of its own to reverse this dumb move.

Anyway, if I understood this correctly, then there are two options:
a) Elaine is the one aware of the conditions from the start, thus the cheater, but if according to Greg the sub-clause was not to reveal her conditions then she practically gave up every and each right of hers over the inheritance consciously, which not only is in detriment of her own interests, but also contradicts the story told by Bella who mentions a lot of treacherous actions which would have no logic (also controverting how Greg and the fortune teller depicted this "third" person, i.e. the "viper"). Unless, remembering Greg's words, this condition was put upon *some* of the beneficiaries, not mentioning whom specifically, so maybe Donald excluded Elaine from the sub-clause, hence she can comfortably speak about it. But even then, as the bomb dropped by Ace says, if the conditions put upon Elaine were vindictive, then it's very unlikely to let her speak so freely about her conditions, something that she was always reluctant to do precisely because of the clauses (if not for other hidden reason). So that leaves us with a second option which is:
b) Bella just made up this story mentioning the conditions of everyone else, practically revealing herself as the one who knew all the conditions beforehand, thus confirming she's definitely the viper.

If this analysis is correct and we do Occam's Razor then the identity of the viper is evident.

Remember the time Donald mentioning in his messages to mc something about Elaine's gonna flip her tits out if she finds out who the third person is. I think from Elaine's knowing Donald has interactions with only 2 girls of all the girls in the game, Bella and Monica, but if that isn't the case Elaine shouldn't be so fucking pissed knowing that the third person was a stranger to her. Normal pissed is what would have got at that moment.
Now coming back to Monica and Bella, if Monica was indeed the 3rd one i think Elaine should be rather surprised and a little hurt of getting lied at by Donald instead of getting pissed given how dad had her convinced that he absolutely hated her since Monica was the reason that caused Donald and MC's mom relation to fall apart. And now that leads us to the last person left to be the viper. I mean what more reason should one need to get fucking pissed at than finding out that the man one married was fucking her own sister for God knows how long and was fucking important enough to him to actually get included in the will. Pretty sure this could be the only scenario that could get enough rise out of Elaine that Donald was talking about in his messages.

This may be a dumb couple of questions....
In Ep 17, at the start of scene 8 (walk in the park/cosplay dress-up with Jenna), the conversation goes:
  • Jenna (entering room): Hey there lazybones!
  • MC: Lazy? I'll have you know I'm in the midst of some very deep thought.
You're then immediately given the choice between
  • (Joke) Funny stuff. Do you write your own material?
  • (Insult) Not quite there with the quick comebacks. Are you trying to be more like Katie?
This kind of feels like there's a line missing from Jenna, (or at least a "..." to show she's trying to think of something to say) - or is MC supposed to be responding to the "lazybones" comment?

They then continue:
  • Jenna: You're kind of an easy mark. Katie can even run circles around you and she is not exactly known for her witty repartee.
  • MC: True, but maybe I just want you to think I'm an easy mark.
  • Jenna: ***giggle*** You're not that good of an actor.
  • MC: We'll just have to agree to disagree here.
  • MC (thinks): Especially when it comes to omissions regarding immediate family.
What's this last thought referring to?
(I'm also a bit surprised at Jenna's comment about Katie).

You only get that if you're in a relationship with both Katie and Jenna, you dirty dog you.

And yeah, I don't get that Katie comment from Jenna either, Katie's the only one who can kind of keep up with the MC when it comes to bantering. And the MC is an S tier banterer.

Thanks for pretty much confirming it at this point.

Does this mean that Dizzy's identity will be revealed in the next episode?
Of course, it's Katie! It all makes sense now. :WeSmart:

As for the reveal, not sure if we are gonna get an actual reveal, but we're supposed to get the full story from Elaine herself. And if that goes how most people are expecting it to go, I think we'll have Dizzy's identity by the process of elimination.

I'm still betting on Zarah. I just can't get away from the `dizzy in name, not in action' comment.

It may not actually be in the game, but having a beach house with a private beach has got to be worth a significant amount of money. Perhaps not as much as the almost 6 million from the will, but MC won't be destitute. (This is even with giving the house to Elaine.)

It was said that the total number of episodes would be 14
Even thinking that the 14th chapter will be a big epilogue sequence dedicated to say the goodbies to the vast cast and setting the future with the final LI(s) it feels more like the reveal will be in chapter 13 at least.
But it also could be chapter 12, maybe to the end, and the 13th is pure total war.

Confirming what? That particular comment was a question. As for next episode confirming the gold digger.

I thought you were giving a huge hint as to what her identity could be when you asked that question.
Nope. I wouldn't spoil that outright. :p

Not to mention, if I outright said who it is, would anyone believe me? :D
