TEREZI: 4LL TH4T W1LL H4PP3N 1S TH4T YOU W1LL L34D H1M H3R3 4ND H3 W1LL K1LL US 4LL […] TEREZI: 1 H4V3 4LR34DY S33N TH1S CONS3QU3NC3 1N MY M1NDS 3Y3 VRISKA: Fascin8ting! Why don't you tell me your terms already??

VRISKA: […] I am the Thief of Light. VRISKA: You really expect me to lose a simple COIN FLIP? VRISKA: I've got AAAAAAAALLLLLLLL THE LUCK, remem8er? >:::)

Oh, Vriska. Haven't you forgotten?

Luck doesn't actually matter.

TEREZI: 1 D1D NOT FORG3T

Luck doesn't actually matter, because Terezi's the Seer of Mind, not of Light. She knows you can rig the coin - and, thus, she's letting you chose the outcome of this confrontation. The coin is an ultimatum.

She’s not reading your fortune, Vriska.

She’s judging your decision.

We don't get to see that decision - but do we really need to? We know she's not backing out now.

For all intents and purposes, Vriska's fate is sealed.

VRISKA: [...] So you've come for revenge, then. VRISKA: I thought we settled all this a long time ago? TEREZI: NO, NOT R3V3NG3. JUST1C3! >:] TEREZI: FOR TH3 D3SP1C4BL3 MURD3RS OF OUR 1NNOC3NT FR13NDS! VRISKA: Murders? Like, plural? TEREZI: VR1SK4, PL34S3. DO NOT TRY TO D3NY 1T. 1 FOUND TH3 3V1D3NC3 TEREZI: T4VROS, N3P3T4… 3V3N G4MZ33!!! 1 M34N R34LLY VR1SK4. G4MZ33?! TEREZI: >:o[ VRISKA: Gamzee isn't dead, you dope!

The instant Vriska tries to tell her about Gamzee, the game conveniently falls apart.

I'm onto you, Makara. We've already seen you screwing with the fourth wall, and now the game interface itself is keeping Terezi in the dark. It doesn't take a genius to figure out who's responsible.

At least these lines are uncorrupted - so at the very least, Terezi's now aware that there's more than one murderer in play.

I'm sure she'll still want to avenge Tavros, but we should probably table that discussion for now. Gamzee is right behind them!

See?

He places Cal's hand on Terezi's head, and a section of the conversation is immediately erased - from Terezi's awareness, I suspect, as well as ours.

What he's doing with Cal appears to be a random prank, but I actually think it's very purposeful. He's not letting Terezi get a handle on things, even for a second, because that's when she'll start to think - and if she starts thinking, he's probably screwed.
