Maybe they want to express their preferences a little bit more openly to the world...

A double cliff hanger--what's the story with the gun and hanging on getting fancy, too. All we got was a passionate kiss!

Well that last one (INtruder) certainly gave me the creeps!! I don't like him, and I don't think he is as innocent as he seems to pretend to be.

Sevigny is like one of those too-clever suspect/witness people that used to show up in Columbo episodes... having some clever inside angle and sidling up to the investigating detective all the time.  As to what it means to the big picture... right now, your guess is as good as mine.

But poor Stills has some work to do on his surveillance... he thought the intruder was 30 to 35 years old.  He's only off by 10 years.

It seems that Ellery is the center of this maelstrom! When are he and Ennis going to get a break from all this and have a chance to talk about their relationship? They need another camping trip!

I don't know that I want them to anywhere till they get this all wrapped up and find the real killer.
and find out what Brad's angle in this is.
