Kevin spoke about the payments to Jane, was this a surprise?

Yes, I thought he'd want to keep it quiet but then he told her it was for buying parcels of land. So that sounded legitimate. But I think it was really for a prostitute.

That was weird, but he had to tell her something and I don’t think he’s very imaginative.

Perhaps he was laying the groundwork for if Perez came to ask Jane if she knew what the money was for?

Sounds like Kevin was involved with the prostitutes too.

I believe they are going to find that people are involved that they would never suspect of doing something like this. Tom will probably give the excuse that he got involved because of the time that Jane was drinking...but she isn't drinking now...BUT...she might have reason soon to start again. He had bought some land so it was a half truth that he could say with a straight face.

I was surprised he was so honest with Jane. It also made me wonder if Jane could have killed Alis.

This changed my thinking totally. I don’t think Kevin would mention this if he was guilty. I have a theory here I think Andy was the one making payments for the prostitution...they both have the same name! But still something suspicious about Kevin!
