mystery solved
Puzzle finally cracked
Mystery solved announces that a puzzling situation has been figured out.
The phrase works as a declaration when someone discovers an explanation: I found the missing sock behind the dryer—mystery solved.
It often carries a note of satisfaction or mild humor, especially for trivial matters that weren't really mysteries to begin with.
