"Perjured Parrot" Questions


SPOILERS AHEAD for one on the most confounding,discombobulated episodes...even without considering Mason had to deal with a parrot impostor.

--What was the motive for the murder?

--the defendant's hubbie thought dead shows up during the climactic courtroom scene. Why did he leave his wife in the first place without notice?

Also, the murderer leaves the courtroom before being named without being seen for the rest of the episode. (Was the actor suddenly unavailable at the time?)

A real cheat is that the intricate murder plan wasn't formulated and implemented by the murderer (including training a substitute bird) but by someone else.
