In the novel "From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler" by E.L. Konigsburg, Otis Amber's phrase "the turtle has lost it all" symbolizes the idea that the turtle had carried valuable possessions on its back but had lost them in the end, similar to how the characters in the story sought something precious but realized it was within themselves all along. It reflects the theme of self-discovery and the journey of finding one's worth and identity.
In "The Westing Game," Otis Amber is making a reference to the character Turtle Wexler, whose nickname is "Turtle." The phrase "the turtle lost its tail" is a playful way of saying that Turtle is feeling incomplete or unsettled about something. It hints at Turtle's curiosity and problem-solving nature in the story.
Turtle lies to Julian about Mr. Hoo, Crow, and Otis Amber in the Westing Game in order to protect her friend Angela, who is Mr. Westing's long-lost daughter. Turtle knows the truth about the characters' identities and their connection to the Westing family mystery, but she keeps this information hidden to prevent Angela from being exposed and targeted by the other heirs seeking the Westing inheritance.
