Bilingual Bonus: True to his name, Jack can speak French. He demonstrates this ability in episode 3, reading the headlines of a French newspaper found in the apartment of one of the victims. That is if the fact that he speaks English with a thick accent didn't give it away.

Private Detective: Jack. He is actually closer to what Sherlock Holmes called a "consulting detective" - instead of individuals coming to him, he gets hired by the police force.

Fresh Clue: In the third game, there are some still-smoking cigarettes in the ashtray when Jack gets to a crime scene. This is used to show that the murderer was there minutes ago, and provides a clue to his identity — Vince, the police officer who alerted you about the murder.

Be as Unhelpful as Possible: In the second game, Lucy and Dr. German lie about their alibi, making them seem suspicious. When they come clean about it, you learn that it has nothing to do with the murder. The witnesses from the third game are all aggressive and reluctant to cooperate with Jack. Justified, as they know Vince, so they are aware they can't trust the police.

Film Noir: The game draws heavy influence from this genre. It has a Private Detective protagonist, shady nightclubs/cabarets, a general air of cynicism, and an organised crime spearheaded by a Dirty Cop.

Red Herring: In the first game, the ex-boyfriend. Anger at being jilted is suggested to be a possible motive since he denies that they ever broke up, but nothing comes of it. Elizabeth Marquis from the second game. It's implied that this was invoked by the killer planting the blonde wig and the bloody cane marks.
