>Have a chapter containing a small mystery that needs to be solved
>Evidence is all there and set
>Write like 7 pages worth (I know that isn't a unit of measurement, fuck you)
>Get this far and find out I'm unsure how to resolve the mystery
>Like none of the evidence really amounts to anything or can amount to anything
>Characters are about to watch a video as part of the clues
>If crucial evidence that I don't know isn't presented during this stage, everything is fucked unless I deus ex the whole fucking mystery
