Shades of DALLAS, (and now AMC)...WHO SHOT CARLO???

Tuesday's episode had us watching some of the possible suspects try and
fabricate excuses as to why they COULDN'T be the one who shot Carlo--and
not so successfully in a few cases!

Gannon and Nichols are working with a blackboard listing suspects, motives,
and opportunity.  In rushes an hysterical Suspect #1, Alex, "A whole day has
gone by and you haven't arrested the murderer of my dearly departed husband!"
She tries to look at the list of suspects, but they don't let her.  She says
it couldn't be her, especially for monetary gain, since Carlo's money will be
split among Alex, Stephanie, and Charlotte.  (Of course, WE know this ain't
so thanks to Alex fast talking a sleazy lawyer).  Alex suggests Nichols and
Gannon question Renee, as Alex accuses Carlo and Renee of being in the midst
of an affair.

An upset    Renee  finds Asa's bloody shirt and gun in a cabinet.  Asa tells
her the shirt got bloody when he and Carlo had the fight at the restaurant.
After the fight, Asa claims he was driving around.  Renee takes the shirt and
gun, but before she can dispose if it, Gannon shows up to question her.  She
gives Gannon the same story, as Asa (Suspect #2), barrels into the study and
tells Gannon to test everything, he didn't do it!  He says he went driving,
then came home.  Renee lies for him, and says they spent the evening together.
Asa later thanks Renee for covering for him.  He also tells Gannon he thinks
Alex did it.  Renee identifies the "C" scarf as being Cain's.

Which brings us to Suspect # 3, Cain, who is trying to convince Tina to run
away to Rio with him.  He tells Tina Carlo is dead.  She asks him if he wants
to go Rio to avoid extradition, but he says it's only to have fun, fun, fun.
Cain denies killing Carlo to Tina.

Cain leaves.  Max comes over to Tina's and tells her he covered for Tina and
Cain and didn't tell the cops about the attic or the diamonds.  Max feels that
Cain could have done it, and Tina is covering for him.  She tells him that she
and Cain spent the night together - talking.  Tina tells Max that Cain is
taking care of everything.  Max tells Tina she should tell the cops everything,
but she disagrees.

Oh yeah, Gannon and Nichols had Max on their list as a possible suspect. (Renee
wasn't on the list, but Julia was).

Cain is questioned and denies everything to Gannon.  He says he won the scarf
from Carlo in a poker game.  (Hmm..the boys were playing strip poker, maybe??)

Off the more obvious suspects for the moment... Cassie comes to Blair's office
looking for her mother, and lamenting the fact that she will soon be out of
a job and tells Blair the story of how Bo so uncermoniously dumped her.  Blair
suggests she take a vacation...a cruise.  Cassie also questioned Blair as to
why the Intruder did not have Carlo's murder on the cover of the rag...Blair
then plays heavy and calls Dorian, telling her to come see her NOW.  Dorian
obliges when Blair tells her it is about Cassie.  When she arrives, Dorian too
asks Blair why there is no coverage of Carlo's murder, or the fight he had
with Asa.  Blair says she has her reasons.  Blair then tells Dorian how to
be a "good mother," and strongly suggests Dorian and Cassie both go on a cruise
together.

A little later Asa and Blair meet, and Asa thanks Blair for not plastering his
face on the cover of the Intruder.  Blair says she did it because she didn't
want to jeopardize their friendship.  Asa says if there is every ANYTHING you
need, let me know.  Blair is setting Asa up, for sure...

Sorry this is kind of disjointed today...in a hurry!!

Bye all.
