Case

Conan, Ran, and Kogoro come to the villa after receiving a request. The case was quickly resolved and as he was returning home, he saw a Gunma Prefectural Police vehicle parked in front of a large villa. Inspector Yamamura, who was at the scene, said that the victim, who was drinking coffee on the balcony, was hit by a falling chimney and died.

Trivia

• The "Rube Goldberg machine" referred to in the title originates from the American cartoonist, Rube Goldberg's works. This term manifests mechanical combinations that are designed to be overly complex and complete simple actions in a circuitous manner.
• Just like other episodes written by Yamatoya, the characters' names come from certain horse racing-related terms:
  • Norihiro Shimada (島田 典弘) comes from Japanese jockey Norihiro Yokoyama (横山 典弘 ,Yokoyama Norihiro);
  • Fuma Tanaka (田中 風馬) comes from Japanese jockey Fuma Matsuwaka (松若 風馬 ,Matsuwaka Fūma);
  • Arata Kawamoto (河本 新) comes from Japanese jockey Arata Saito (斎藤 新 ,Saitō Arata);
  • Manami Teshima (手島 まなみ) comes from Japanese jockey Manami Nagashima (永島 まなみ ,Nagashima Manami);
  • Nanako Inoue (井上 奈々子) comes from Japanese jockey Nanako Fujita (藤田 菜七子 ,Fujita Nanako);
  • Kohei Inoue (井上 浩平) comes from Japanese jockey Kohei Matsuyama (松山 弘平 ,Matsuyama Kōhei).
• The children program mentioned by Conan refers to Wikipedia:PythagoraSwitch, an educational program produced by NHK. During the beginning and ending of each episode, and between each segment, there are Pythagorean Devices (ピタゴラ装置 ,Pitagora Sōchi). "Pythagorean device" is the equivalent Japanese colloquialism for the American "Rube Goldberg machine".

• In the joke card, Kogoro is about to say "Pythagorean device", but Conan stopped him.
