Who was involved in the supposed incest?


I heard no mention about that.

I just finished watching it. Bruno says that "the children" are the products of incest. Interestingly, their mother is never mentioned directly - only "Daddy", Uncle Ned, Aunt Clara and Aunt Martha. The attorney specifies that Ned, Clara and Martha are Mr. Merrye's siblings and inquires as to their
whereabouts. My theory is that the mother died young(ish) and received a proper burial, which is why Schlocker didn't ask about her.
I just can't figure out how "Daddy" seemingly wasn't as severely afflicted - he extracted many promises from Bruno, figured out that meat would quicken the *illness*, and left behind a fortune (although it was probably amassed by his less-mad ancestors a few generations back).
