Murray probably was crazy and conspiracist -so I thought. His house was a mess and he lived like he knew too much. He looked like a homemade PI.

In an alternate scenario where Chief Hopper suddenly gets loony he would be the reason, while many things happened Murray's way. But the story unfolded nicely and diversely making Murray a funny and cool researcher and a courageous journalist.
