The most critical point to generate this idea is how well nurse Marta can distinguish between painkillers and good things. We analyze based on the clips of the film, as shown below
Then Marta walked over to the two labeled medicine bottles, picked up the left one and put it down, picked up the right one and handed it to the detective, as shown below
At this time, detective 007 asked her
Her answer was "I just know", and then no vomiting occurred (Mata's setting is that she will vomit if she lied), here we can confirm that Marta is very good at distinguishing between the two drugs, just take a look will know. At this time, let's go back to the scene of injecting the old man. First, the old man knocked over the chessboard, and the medicine fell on the ground. It was picked up by Marta, as shown in the picture.
Then Marta didn't read the label to give the old man the injection. Based on the previous analysis, she didn't need to read the label at all. Then Marta asked the old man if he wanted some happiness medicine. It was an action of picking up the medicine bottle and shaking it at the old man, as follows picture
After this period, it was found that the wrong medicine was used and the following things happened, but we can know that with this level of medicine, Marta can completely distinguish which bottle is which bottle. So at this time, Marta got a piece of information and concealed a piece of information. The information obtained was that Marta knew that someone had changed the medicine in her bag at this time, and that someone wanted to harm the old man. The concealed information is that the medicine she injected into the old man is fine. Some people here will have a question. Isn’t Marta unable to lie about her constitution? She will definitely vomit when she hides the old man. Let’s look at the next picture. Marta did not say that the old man was injected wrongly, but took the replaced medicine. The bottle said, I injected you 100mg of this (pictured below)
So she's not lying, so it doesn't trigger vomiting.
So the question is, is this event planned by Marta? After I watched it again, I don’t think so, and the movie also explained why this event happened, which is the following sentence (pictured below)
Let's take a look at the mistakes of these people
1. The old man and the US team, as shown below
I have to say here that I think the old man himself knows that there is nothing wrong with the injection. First, it is out of trust in the nurse as a friend (Marta is actually the old man's long-term friend, from the old man who told her many secrets of his children and her daily chat with the old man. It can be seen from the equality and relaxation state that they are not the relationship between the employer and the nurse, as evidenced by the picture below)
The second is that the old man himself, as a mystery novelist, thinks carefully, he did not have the reaction after the overdose that Marta said, or he knows these things himself, he can judge that he is fine.
And the old man's mistake is, what he said himself - self-confidence, he feels that he has the ability to use this thing to fulfill his wish, as shown in the picture below, or that he is confident that he can make himself a perfect ending, so he stopped Marta from calling, Knowing that he would not die, he chose to commit suicide. (As shown below)
Putting the old man and the US team together is because the US team is really what the old man said. After knowing that he could not get the inheritance, he planned this series of activities with confidence. He also foolishly confessed to the crime himself.
2. Marta’s mistake must be that she didn’t tell the old man the truth first. When she got someone to replace the medicine bottle and wanted to kill the old man, she chose to hide it. Played it. Secondly, I believed in the US team, and for a while I really acted to cover up my behavior.
3. The maid's mistake, because of the maid's intervention, the US team set fire to the testing center, designed to extort Mata, etc.
All this by accident, making a simple incident complicated and confusing.
At this time, let's see if Detective 007 knows the whole truth. Let's first see how he evaluates this case, which is the title's doughnut theory, as shown below
That is, the 007 detective knew that this small hole was. Marta knew at the time that she had not injected the wrong drug, but she did not tell the old man. The movie uses a very obscure method to express that the detective already knew the truth. At the beginning of the movie, when the police separate and interrogate family members, this knife holder is in the background, and it looks like a giant donut (pictured)
And when the detective finished talking about the donut theory and took off his coat to solve the puzzle, it was his head that blocked the last hole (pictured below)
The case is complete in the detective's head, and the detective knows everything.
So the new question, why did the detective choose to help Marta? Let's look at the very beginning, the first conversation between the detective and Marta, as shown below
The detective thinks that Marta is kind, but in the process of handling the case later, the detective saw the blood on Marta's shoes at the beginning, but still asked her to play Watson, and during the process of handling the case, he kept observing whether Marta was Not a good person, when Marta finally rescued the servant, was willing to confess everything, and helped the police to get Captain America to confess his guilt, the detective determined that she did not plan this case, this case is a tragedy caused by a series of mistakes, she is a good man, so in the end the detective said to Marta, as shown below
So the detective is willing to help her hide the last little hole in the doughnut. And the last sentence of the dialogue between the two also shows the detective's stance on the old man's family
Detective 007 believes that the whole case is a tragedy caused by a series of mistakes, so the father's sons and daughters, who care about the father's money like a vampire, are the most fundamental reasons for the whole tragedy. So the detective finally chooses to help the kind Marta, not the sick family.
