It keeps happening
[After that horror show of an execution, Mordecai is still restless from the investigation and trial. He has too much pent-up energy, and plenty of others are sure to be upset, too. Ashley was loved by nearly all of them, the trial was mentally draining, and that execution was crueler than it should have been.
Two hours after everyone has returned to their rooms, they'll find a note slipped under their doors.]
We can't go on with empty stomachs. There's food in the kitchen, and the dining room is always open if you need someone to talk to.
Please keep anything outside of eating and civilized conversation away from the dining hall. That room is meant to be a peaceful place for those of us that need it.
-Mordecai Benmont Jiminy
[Today, there's cream of tomato soup warming up on the stove with a set of bowls besides it. It's a more mindless dish to prepare than mashed potatoes, as much as Mordecai wants to vent his frustrations on the potatoes.
He decides to follow Cabanela's tradition and lights one more candle, and after some consideration, lights a sixth. Let those who cared about either girl pay their respects.]

...There was something he said, way back when. That we couldn't end this without somebody dying. But... the way he talked, he made it sound like just one person had to die.
...We know that's not how the trials work, though. So what does that mean?
[ That there's something else. ]

...He could've been referrin' to how we need murder for a trial, but when I think about it, that one person could be him. Remember rule 5? Violence against the Conductor's only permitted with his permission, but it's still an option. If we can get rid of him, we'd be free.
When I asked, he said he wouldn't stop us if we found another way out, and he did mention it's possible for multiple people to leave at once. Whether it's due to more than one murderer or escapin', I'm not too sure, but it only means we need to take a better look at the rules and see what our available options are.
