    Yes she was.

    Repeating the clue for the new page:

    m_cable's Puzzle #5

    After blowing his brains out, she snuck a peek into his wallet. Then she blew her own brains out.


    Status: Solved
    The woman was a hooker and the man was her "client". After doing the deed, she looked though his wallet, in order to swipe some cash, while he showered. And she found a torn off photograph of the guy as a young boy with his father. The cut off photograph matched up with her own photo of her as a young girl with her mother. So she realized that she just had sex with her long-lost brother, who she'd been out of touch with since their parents split up many years ago. Then she committed suicide.

    Were they unknowingly related?

    She killed him for his money, realized he was her brother (I guess they had an unusual surname), and killed herself because of it.

    OK just a guess, but the guy hit her up for sex, he realized after they got it on that she kissed like his wife. Then he realized she was his daughter that had been put up for adoption or was lost or something. he rcouldn't deal with the guilt so he killed himself. She looked at his wallet recognized who he was and offed herself for the same reasons.

    edit: oops misread it and thought he killed himself.

    Not quite.

    Edit: Half your guess is wrong. And another part is a bit off.

    She saw a picture of herself as a little girl in the wallet and realized he was her dad. And he was blind, so he couldn't recognize her. And she never met him face-to-face prior to that.

    I'm gonna say that she had sex with him, he told her he wasn't going to pay, she caps him, looks in his wallet and discovers it's her father that abandoned her when she was a child, then shot herself...

    There are parts of both of these that work. And a couple parts that are totally wrong.

    Try narrowing down with yes/no questions, instead of blind guesses. :)

    Did she realize they were related after she killed him?

    Your question makes an assumption that isn't true.

    Come on! My guess made sense... You said she was a prostitute, she was looking for money, and the guy was unknowingly related to her...wouldn't you shoot yourself if you found out that you just had sex with your father that you just killed? :D
