SYNOPSIS: The Schnitzel Brothers Circus has entertained children of all ages for generations, but the last Schnitzel brother has passed on to the Big Top in the sky.  He did not leave a will, and unless an heir can be found, the circus’ assets will be turned over to the state and it will be sold. As if this weren’t tragic enough, a murder has been committed on the circus midway.  Is this the end of the Most Mediocre Show on Earth?
