Grand Frederiks is where Kurt surprised her the other day on her return from the "conference".

Presumably his unwitting covering up for her or whatever was maintaining her alibi?

I think it was known all along really, just proved now, LOL

Breaks loose indeed!

So, questions:

-How'd she get the drug from a double-blind test?
-Does Kurt think she killed him based on any evidence other than her being the one to steal the drug (she may have sold it... though her working with Cymbalisty makes it more likely that she did it)
-How did she know that he knows?
-How did he help cover up for her?
-Why did she do it (assuming that he's correct, which seems probable)?

I assume the covering up refers to the little trip they took that weekend, leaving early the day Cymbalisty may have taken the overdose. Thus giving her an alibi (though certainly not air-tight).

OK, so presumably the identity of 'HG' led Kurt directly - and possibly even immediately - to Miranda's involvement in Cymbalisty's death. Was she HG? Was she the one that administered the fatal dose of C6 to Cymbalisty? If so, how did she know it would be lethal? And most importantly, who was she directly working for? V?

Fantastic! She's outed at last. And Kurt called us all paranoid and accused us of starting a witchhunt.

Plus, a text from Kurt - how cool is that?

Excuse my low-content post - I'm all excited.

Why is Kurt's life so much more exciting than anyone else's? I certainly havn't found that a degree in Natural sciences puts me in a position for mad hunts around cities for missing persons, or deep involved schemes to rob compounds of vital technology or any of that stuff.

And Grr. if she got on a tube at GF's station before the missing persons went up, she could be anywhere in the city by now. It's a central hub for transport both above and below ground. Talk about the best possible place to drop your key.

My guess is that we're going to be finding Miranda's body by the end of the day.

She knows too much if she was sent to spy on Kurt and the CRT, as well as kill Cymbalisty.

She's a liability to 3P (assuming) if she got found out by Kurt.
