Charles George Drexler was the manager of a rock band called Mirabilis as well as the killer of music mogul Freddie Major. Drexler learned a Midwestern conglomerate was talking to Freddie about acquiring his company, Rojam Records, and Drexler faced losing a lot of money in the stock market if the buyout was successful. While Mirabilis were shooting their new music video, Drexler called Holly Chase on her walkie-talkie, knowing she wouldn't be able to identify his voice over the din, and asked her to tell Freddie Major to meet him in the VIP lounge. When he arrived, Drexler shot Major dead, but as he dropped to the floor, Major was able to press three keys on the electronic keyboard, and those three notes, C, G, and D, later helped Jessica Fletcher to identify Drexler as the killer. Drexler placed Major's body on a conveyer belt and placed the bullet casing on the ground to establish a phoney murder site, and later planted the murder weapon in Paul Atkins' car to frame him. When Drexler realized Jessica Fletcher had worked out he killed Freddie, he pulled a gun on her, but Jessica told him to play the song on the keyboard before he killed her, and Drexler discovered the three notes Major had put in, and Lieutenant Alan Terwilliger burst in and arrested him.
