It would be quite a big shock wouldn’t it? What if you found out that you had not died of natural causes, but you had been murdered? Wouldn't you just die? The fall play, Who Dunit?”, by C. B. Gilford, told the story of Alexander Arlington, a famous mystery writer, who died and went to Heaven. There he found out that he had been murdered. He demanded to know who had killed him, only to be told by the Archangel Michael, that they didn't keep records of things like that in Heaven. Michael and two other angels, Muriel and Isabelle, decided to let Alexander go back and live the last 24 hours of his life to try to solve his own murder.

They performed in front of enthusiastic crowds to such songs as Back In Time” by Huey Lewis, “Step That Step by Sawyer Brown, Hungry Eyes by Sheena Easton, and Party All The Time by Eddie Murphy. When the Indianettes marched in Peoria's annual Santa Claus Parade, they were awarded the Outstanding Novelty Unit trophy. The girls diligently practiced after school two days a week, and occasionally on weekends. Frequently, the girls were ousted from the gym because of basketball practices. This situation, however, never distressed the Indianettes (or their sponsor, Holly Furlong). Each member of the squad gave their full potential to every performance.
