Family Games - Get a Clue!

Sarah had been playing with our edition of Clue most of the afternoon so we played it as our activity for family night. Jonathan was not in a good mood so we had a hard time convincing him to play, but he grudgingly agreed finally. He loves Xbox and computer games, so of course a boardgame is much more tedious for him and he rarely has the patience though he does have good gaming skills. So we began and most of us were into it except for Jonathan but he made a few notes. We went around on the first turn and some got to make some accusations to narrow it down, but on my turn (going last) I only rolled enough to move but not enter a room to make a guess. Jonathan was still not into the game, but on his second turn he put in a guess for the room, suspect and weapon. And he nailed it! HE WON BEFORE I GOT MY SECOND TURN OR WAS EVEN ABLE TO ENTER A ROOM! Hannah was stunned with mouth open as Jonathan just got up and walked away. I think he gleefully enjoyed that, but was even more happy that he didn't havce to play that long.
(As a side note, that is probably a reason why I don't like that game as much, but will still play it. I prefer and recommend Mystery Express for a murder mystery deduction game.)
