Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? (Video Game) / int_154aa477	type	Big, Screwed-Up Family
Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? (Video Game) / int_154aa477	comment	Big, Screwed-Up Family: Quite literally everyone in the family, aside from Abby, is some degree of awful. Aside from Nan's attempt on Marcus's life and successful murder of her husband, each member of the family have their own secrets that are uncovered with each of their respective accusations. Felicity is an uncaring mother and have put her reputation and image before the happiness of her daughters. June is an example of what staying in the toxic environment of the family would do to someone, it's very clear that she is just a tired and hollow shell of a woman, trying to drink away her depression. Toby is revealed to actually have been living out of a van in London, and not in Africa due to a greedy investment that went south. Bradley does some pretty disturbing and dangerous things, with the fact he has access to illegal poisons just the tip of the iceberg. Lottie confesses that along with her career as a social media influencer, she is also selling cocaine on the side. Even Uncle Marcus is revealed to have had bouts of paranoia a couple years prior.

He notes that he bragged about his collection to Lottie, that Toby would've had access to his stuff...and then he pauses, gasps "it couldn't be", and adds that Nan was snooping in his room the morning the poisons went missing.

More blatantly, if Abby accuses her without evidence, Nan calls her "a stupid girl" and warns her that "she knows what happens next". The implication is clear.

Marcus trying to uncover the truth while writing an autobiography, which would ruin the entire family's lives if the truth got out, is what motivates Nan to try killing him too.

Aunty June also gives one to Abby in her ending, telling her that one day she'll be just like her, another bitter old drunk mourning her lost potential.

Midway through the game, Nan will inform Abby about how Marcus was prone to acute paranoia a few years back, to the point of accusing the family of things they didn't do and becoming a shut in. This sows seeds of doubt within Abby and puts into question whether or not she wants to believe Marcus, who, after confronting him about it, confirms that Nan was telling the truth, but swears that this time he is not being paranoid. If you, as Abby, choose to no longer trust Marcus, she will end the call with him and log off. Time then moves forward a few days later, during Marcus's Virtual Funeral service. All other family members are in attendance but after exchanging condolences to each other they log off one by one until the now distraught Abby is the only one left in the call, silently sobbing, utterly beside herself, and feeling nothing but regret.

In Round 1, Mum, Nan, and Aunt Jane all share about Uncle Marcus catching fire and who did what in response, but Nan leaves out that she applied a first aid kit, which is how the poison was applied. Immediately after Round 1, Nan turns her camera off, giving her time to send the threatening messages to Abby. After Round 3 when she shares about Uncle Marcus' previous paranoid delusions, she talks about anonymous e-mails despite her saying in Round 1 that she neither has an e-mail nor really understands how the internet works. And if you pair with Nan on Round 4, she suggests that Abby call it an early evening.

Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? (Video Game) / int_c868a42a	type	Freudian Excuse
Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? (Video Game) / int_c868a42a	comment	Freudian Excuse: June is the most openly unpleasant of the family by some margin, viciously insulting everyone at every opportunity, but if you manage to get her to open up? Abby can learn her alcoholism and subsequent decline is an attempt to soothe the grief of her father's death, and she fears being sober because then she'll remember what she lost. Felicity can give a shorter but similar statement, offhandedly noting that since her father died, she always wants to cry.

Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? (Video Game) / int_c94f1109	comment	Artistic License â€“ Chemistry: Uncle Marcus' has several of the symptoms of being poisoned by means of thallium, but he lacks hair loss. Hallucinations are not a symptom (although in the ending where he lives and Bradley accidentally kills June, Uncle Marcus suggests the medicine is making him hallucinate).

Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? (Video Game) / int_d52d28b6	comment	Hypocrite: Toby's life revolves around charitable causes (well, mainly how he can seem like a better person for supporting them), and he uses his round of the quiz to guilt-trip his relatives into caring more about global crises like climate change and supporting third-world countries. He also invested all of his money in a diamond mine that was shut down by Amnesty International for exploiting slave labor.

She's innocent, of course, she's just a massive asshole.

Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? (Video Game) / int_eb8ec7c8	comment	Jerkass: All of the family, besides Abby, in one way or another. Felicity's a raging egoist incapable of caring about anyone but herself, Toby's a holier-then-though Soapbox Sadie who's constantly dismissing others, Lottie's a shallow and self-obsessed social media celebrity, Bradley's a deeply creepy murder-obsessed weirdo, and June is a bitter drunk who openly hates everyone. Even Marcus is a hate-filled paranoiac. Nan is at least better at hiding it, but it soon becomes clear she's just as messed up as the rest of them.

He then panics and jumps out of his bedroom window...on the third floor of the house.
