Mystery Episode

Jake: [in German accent] Well, well, well. What do we have here? It appears a crime has been committed and no-one will confess.
Amy: Doing a German accent?
Jake: I was going for Belgian, like in Murder on the Orient Express.

— Brooklyn Nine-Nine, "Dillman"

I hereby welcome you to the accusing parlor to discuss... the Mystery Episode.

The Mystery Episode is an episode where the characters attempt to solve a mystery. The mystery in question can be something as mundane as a stolen item to something as serious as murder. The characters will look for clues, make deductions, and finally finger a culprit. The consequences may be suitable for the crime, but not always.

As you'd expect, this only applies if the characters don't solve mysteries on a regular basis, so Detective Dramas and Police Procedurals will not be accepted. Sister trope to Noir Episode and Heist Episode. Thriller on the Express occurs when this happens on a train. And no, this does not refer to episodes that are so ambiguous you can't tell what show they're from.

Examples:

Anime & Manga

• One episode of Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic sees Sinbad being accused of raping Princess Kougyoku, but he has no memory of the night before, and thus the cast must determine what happened. It later turns out that Kougyoku's attendant put her and Sinbad together in Sinbad's bed, hoping to pressure Sinbad into marrying Kougyoku.
• A filler episode of One-Punch Man has the S-class heroes having to solve the murder of fellow S-Class ZombieMan while staying at a hot spring. Bonus points for Child Emperor, who is doing the sleuthing here, being voiced by the same actor who did Conan Edogawa.
• In one episode of Super Sonico The Animation, Sonico is found unconscious in a locked dressing room with her guitar missing. Her bandmates, unable to practice without her, team up with an amateur sleuth to try and track down the culprit. However, the sleuth's increasingly bizarre theories mean that by the time Sonico wakes up, they're no closer to solving the mystery and they've run out of time to practice, though they do at least find her guitar. The Stinger reveals that the sleuth knew all along who knocked Sonico out and why, and was Obfuscating Stupidity to stall for time so they wouldn't get in trouble.
• Parodied in Heaven's Design Team. While the titular design team are having a vacation, they discover Mercury's body lying in a pool of blood with an ashtray on his head. Jupiter quickly takes it upon himself to investigate the "crime scene", even though Mercury is not dead. He wasn't even attacked by anyone—he simply collapsed from a hangover, and Shimoda put an ashtray on his head to protect it from being bitten by animals. Jupiter invokes the whole sleuthing act to distract the crew until the Angels have finished building the vacation villa they were preparing for the team (it's supposed to be a surprise).
• Haruhi Suzumiya: The chapter "Remote Island Syndrome" sees the SOS Brigade stay overnight at an island villa belonging to Itsuki's distant relative, when their host is suddenly murdered in the middle of a storm and they scramble to find the killer. It all turns out to be a hoax, designed to keep them (and Haruhi in particular) entertained.
• The My Hero Academia filler anime episode "Save the World With Love". The episode goes to a training exercise for the Superhero School students to defuse a Hostage Situation, before the situation changes to a locked-room murder mystery that they now have to solve...and then it turns out that the villain set that up so he could escape.
• Parodied in "Spy X Family": Mission 94 is a classic Ten Little Murder Victims plot in a ski lodge isolated by a blizzard... but with the Forgers involved, it's quickly wrapped up after the attempted murder of the first victim, courtesy of Anya's telepathy, Bond's precognition, and Loid's sheer competence.

Literature

• "A Murder Case in the Area", one of the stories from the eighth volume of the Sword Art Online light novel, has Kirito and Asuna investigate two mysterious in-game murders. The murders seem impossible, because the victims have been killed with a safe zone where the game mechanics prevent player-killing.

When a postman delivers a letter with postage due, he's deducted the money from his salary. Unfortunately, the postman has retired and apparently disappeared.

• Brooklyn Nine-Nine does this in "Dillman". Although the show is a sitcom about cops who solve crimes on a regular basis, not a lot of time is devoted to crime deductions. In this episode, however, many homages to the murder mystery genre abound when a prank gone wrong contaminates evidence on Jake's desk and nobody in the precinct admits to it, so Holt brings in a supposed Great Detective to solve the case. It's lampshaded as a Whodunnit multiple times, Jake tries to imitate Hercule Poirot's accent, and Boyle gets to do The Summation.
• Downplayed for an episode of Bumble. Half the episode is about Peek playing detective trying to figure out who tore the page from a cookbook, the other half is about how to deal with the situation once it's revealed that it was Boo.

Also a Parody Episode, this one of Zodiac. The culprit is never revealed, although a later episode implies that it's Annie.

Hawkeye then arranges a Summation Gathering where he tricks the thief into revealing himself using a form of Bluffing the Murderer.
• Modern Family episode "Wine Weekend". After Haley's boss' tiara is damaged, clueless Manny fancies himself quite the detective.
