Still my winner -- or, more to the point, a steadfast belief that the real target was Gia.
I'm just coming up short on motive. Why would he want her dead?
I wanted to say, Why would he kill a bus full of kids just to off his daughter, but I guess that's the thing with hard-hearted killers -- to deflect attention, you would, conceivably, go with the method that doesn't lead back to you very obviously.
Still. What would he gain by her death? Money? It's a possibility, I guess, if there's some kind of trust fund issue there, but that hasn't been even hinted at. Pity? He won the election anyway.
What's been kept in focus all season? Real estate -- it's a running theme, all the way down to them giving us investment tutorials along the way and a nice example of how real estate fraud works.
Very true. But that leads me to believe that one of the PCHers is behind the bus crash. (On very little evidence, I'll grant you.)
I'm sticking by my theory that it's Backup, who is bitter over his lack of screen time this season, and didn't get credit for catching Echolls in Keith's book.
My suspicion is that any, well, suspicion we have now is a red herring. We're (surprisingly) nearly halfway through the season, but it's about time for the midseason change-up (TM Buffy).
Of course, lots of narratives focus on the real villian early, blow it up and then surprise us in the end. So it could turn out to be Woody, but we will have some reason to completely absolve him of suspicion between now and the end of the season. Aside from the fact that the washed-up 80s actor factor is too obvious.
This show rules.
She's blackmailing him?
Possible. Although she comes across as too self-absorbed and vapid to me to be a successful blackmailer.
It could explain why she gets priviledges and Little Brother is given the hairy eyeball for spilling water on the rug, though.

Heh. Also true.

Hey, it worked last season.
and please recall that KENDALL made the payoff. She was knee deep in Big Dick's affairs from the beginning
I'm not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing for poor Beaver.

I think it's more likely she's got some big ass trust fund (she was at private school previously, I think) from a grandmother or something, than that she's blackmailing him. Gia doesn't seem to have the teeth for blackmail, or at least, we haven't seen her teeth, yet.

Was it the payoff, or was she bringing the Auditor paperwork, or what? It would be interesting to see Kendall play the villain. Personality wise, I haven't seen it, yet.
She and Trina seemed to have a large hate-on going, considering they'd just met. Now, I know RT probably wanted to let Alyson and Charisma play. But their bitchery sounded more like bitchery of people who already know and have contempt for one another, than instant bitchery.
Maybe Gia's the killer. There's something really
off
about her. The motive may have something to do with the Cassavetes, or more specifically, Dick.

She did manage to come up and execute a somewhat complicated plan just to humiliate Veronica, so I think she is quite capable of a blackmail scheme.
