Mrs. White calls everyone to the dining room for dinner, Dr. Black reveals that he has been in a relationship with Mrs. Peacock and proposes to her. Just before dinner, everyone is given a photo of a man they recognize, Dr. Black reveals that the man is Lord Reginald Hugh, who several of the guests are familiar with. That night, Dr. Black is murdered. Mrs. White calls the police and Detective Arthur Gold comes to investigate.

Most of the suspects admit to their potential motives, Miss Peach admits that she met Dr. Black 2 years prior at a social gathering, she had fallen in love with him, but refused to have sex with him, as she didn't believe in sex before marriage, when she came to the party, she thought Black would ask her to marry him, but was angry when he asked Mrs. Peacock. Mrs. White had been the loyal housekeeper for the manor for 40 years, working for Black's father and even being the nanny to Dr. Orchid when she was younger, but Black had cut her from his will. Reverend Green admits that, before becoming a vicar, he had been a wanted con man, before he went straight and became a reverend, but he was worried that Black had known his secret, as Sir Hugh had been the only one to know about Green's secret. Miss Scarlett reveals that she and Black were childhood best friends, but their friendship had strained after she moved away, she had met Sir Hugh and had influenced his stock market investments. Colonel Mustard admits he had been making black market deals and was being blackmailed by someone, in exchange for their secrecy, Mustard had believed that Black was the blackmailer. Prince Azure admits that he had been called to the manor to discuss a business deal with Black, intending to sign over the deed to a diamond mine to Dr. Black, however, before dinner, Black told Azure that he had sent someone to check out the mine and discovered it to be a dud. Professor Plum admits that he had been a business partner to Sir Hugh, who had financed Plum's research, but, after they had a fight, Sir Hugh had ended the business relationship between the two, Plum had came to the manor hoping to convince Black to help finance his research, but Black refused.

Monsieur Brunette, Dr. Orchid, Mrs. Peacock, Inspector Grey and Madame Rose all deny having any motives to murder Dr. Black. Gold investigates every room in the house and finds out that, despite the body being found in the cellar, the body was moved from the actual murder room. Gold narrows down the potential rooms to 9, the kitchen, the ballroom, the conservatory, the billiard room, the library, the study, the hall, the lounge and the dining room. Gold inspects the body and discovers several various injuries and asks the guests to all reveal any potential weapons, Plum pulls out a revolver that he carries for self defense, Mustard reveals that he is carrying a military dagger, Green takes out a portable lamp that he uses to read in bed, Dr. Orchid goes to her room to bring back a bottle of poison that she uses to keep insects away from her plants, Mrs. White pulls out a kitchen knife that she had accidently left in her apron, Miss Peach hands over her parasol, Inspector Grey turns over an award he got for his loyal service to the police, Monsieur Brunette reveals he had tried to sneak a candlestick and Prince Azure hands over his scepter. Gold searches the house for any other weapons, finding a lead pipe, a rope, a wrench, a fireplace poker and a sword.

Gold narrows down the weapons to 7, Plum's revolver, Mustard's Dagger, Orchid's poison, Brunette's candlestick, the lead pipe, the rope and the wrench. Gold rules out the poison, as Mrs. White reveals that Dr. Black had not had anything to drink since that morning. Gold investigates more of the house while he instructs Grey and Mustard to make sure no one leaves the mansion. While investigating, he finds an art room with an empty display, Brunette reveals that he is an art thief and was trying to steal a priceless vase from the art room, but Black caught him and the two fought, causing the vase to be broken. Brunette also admits to his potential motive, when Black caught him stealing the vase, he threatened to turn him into the police. Gold gets confused as to why Inspector Grey never told this during questioning, but Grey says Black never told him anything about Brunette trying to steal the vase.

Gold's investigations allow him to come across Black's diary in his study, revealing the potential motive for Mrs. Peacock. Peacock is revealed as a black widow who had killed her 3 previous husbands, she was also engaged to Sir Hugh, before Hugh's death. Sir Hugh was only in his mid 30s when he died, leading Black to believe Peacock murdered him. Gold notices that Inspector Grey's page in the diary is ripped out, a body search reveals that Grey had found the diary and ripped out his page. The torn out page reveals that 2 years prior, Dr. Black had been involved in a tax evasion case, Grey had offered to pull some strings to get the charges dropped and had been blackmailing Black ever since, but Black had refused to continue paying. This also reveals that Black didn't tell Grey about Brunette because he didn't trust Grey to do anything about it.

The guests reveal that Rose had predicted that Black would die and begin to suspect she may have murdered him to make sure her prediction came true, but Rose denies it, saying she didn't need to kill him for her prediction to become true, as her predictions always come true. The suspects remember her other predictions, that Professor Plum will come face-to-face with the love of his life, Mrs. White will be betrayed, Inspector Grey will lose his job and Reverend Green will have 2 left feet. Plum admits that he had fallen in love with one of the female guests of the manor earlier that night, meaning that prediction had come true, Mrs. White also realizes that her prediction had come true, being betrayed by Black by cutting her from his will, and when Gold reveals Grey's blackmailing, Grey will definitely lose his job. Green says his prediction still hasn't come true.
