The gardener was secretly having an affair with the maid, so she snuck out of the house to be with him in the garden, but the husband found out, and since the maid was also his mistress, he got furious and went out to confront them in the garden. While he was out in the garden, the butler snuck into the bedroom to be with his secret love, the wife, who was not sleeping.
The cook was the butler’s wife, and she suspected something was going on, so she watched the butler go into the bedroom. She decided to get revenge and plotted to have an affair with the husband, the master.
When the husband came back into the house, he was approached by the cook, who made strong advances and tried to seduce the husband. But he refused her advances and told her to “bug off, you old bag”, at which point the cook grabbed a knife and was about to stab him, when the maid walked in, and saw them together.
Figuring that he was also having an affair with the cook, she got furious and she grabbed another knife, which was lying on the table. Just then, the butler and the wife walked into the kitchen, and the wife, realizing that because the maid was angry, that the maid must have been having an affair with her husband, grabbed a knife and headed for her husband. The butler, who saw his chance at getting rid of the man who was married to the woman he loved, also grabbed a knife. Just then, the gardener came into the kitchen.
The gardener, who just recently had been fired for messing around with the husband’s mistress, was very angry at having lost his job and his mistress, so he grabbed a knife. Soon, the husband lay dead on the floor in a pool of blood.
But he had been shot, many times, along with being stabbed Only the butler had access to the closet where the guns were kept, so the police knew who had shot him, but what they couldn't prove was who had stabbed him, as he had forty two stab wounds also.
