Question: Throughout the movie, we hear Wadsworth saying that the police are coming/have been called. Then, in one of the endings (I think it's the last one), Wadsworth says, "Why should the police come? Nobody's called them." And Mrs. Peacock says, "Oh my God, of course!" What does this mean?

Question: In the "Real Ending", if Mr. Green was actually an undercover FBI agent, who was the fake informant that gave fake info to Wadsworth to make him invite Mr.Green to the party in the first place? Wouldn't Wadsworth have thought it was strange that that was only informant that didn't show up to the mansion that night?
Answer: All the informants showed up. They were the murder victims. The Cook, Yvette the Maid, the Policeman, the Singing telegram girl, the Stranded Motorist and Mr. Boody. Each of them were the informants to the guests.
The questioner is asking why there isn't an informant for Mr. Green. The Cook informed on Peacock, Yvette on White, Policeman on Scarlet, Singing Telegram on Plum, Motorist on Mustard. "Mr. Body" wasn't an informant, he was the real Mr. Body's blackmailed butler.
Answer: She realised that no-one had called the police and that they wouldn't show up to an unreported crime.
