Added DiffLines:

* TheReveal: [[spoiler: The double murder at the beginning was actually a MurderSuicide. After being pushed too far by her scumbag husband, [[SympatheticMurderer Flavia]] stabbed him to death with a pair of scissors and drowned herself in the canals. Flavia's paramour, Bruno, brought her ashore and tried to save her, but was too late. That's how her body ended up on land instead of floating in the canals.]]


Added DiffLines:

* ShearMenace: Fabio and the prostitute are both murdered with a pair of scissors.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Inspector Angelo has a thing for hard-boiled eggs. In almost every scene with him he can be seen peeling and eating one.
