“Fits, doesn't it?”
To expand this to the full sentence the word "fits" is expressing everything below that is in bold
All the information we have and everybody's actions all make sense, doesn't it?
I hope you do jigsaws as this analogy will work a lot better if you do :)
Imagine the story to be a jigsaw, all the clues are jigsaw pieces, one very important piece was missing so noneYou have lots of the other pieces fitted, some are together making a picture, but there are some gaps still. They have just found the last This new piece and everything now fits nicely into one of the gaps filling in more of the picture.
Thanks to @AC for reminding me of this.
