Well, another rerun, but I thought I'd type in the narration in for
people who didn't get to see it, and in case it contains clues!  So:

Lauren-Marie Taylor is pretending to powder her nose with the
Powder Puff of Death.  "Just kidding.  Hi, I'm Lauren-Marie Taylor
and I USED to be Stacey on Loving, well, that is, before Stacey
became the serial killer's first victim.  Now, Alex and Tony are
getting closer to unmasking my murderer, but we're going to give
you a second chance to look for some clues.  See if you can figure
out whodunnit by watching this encore presentation of "The Loving
Murders."

[What happens:  Curtis leaves Gwyn's apartment, and someone
approaches the door and opens it with a key; it's Alex... Charles
comes to the hospital to visit Angie, and asks Angie to dinner, but
she's too busy... Jacob meets Lorraine for the first time (at the
agency) and she's drunk... Tess goes to the mansion to have a
business meeting with Clay, but she's dressed all slinky; Clay's
all business, but Tess is flirty... Clay signs the contract, and
asks Tess if she would like a drink...]

LMT is carrying the Brandy Bottle of Death.  "Did you see how Clay
kept staring at this brandy bottle?  Well, you better keep your eye
on it, because this brandy's a major clue to figuring out the murderer."

[What happens: Charles and Angie have a picnic in the hospital, and
talk about Angie overworking herself to keep her mind off Stacey;
she apologizes, and they get all mushy... Jacob sits Lorraine down
in his office when she's stumbling around, and offers her some
coffee; they talk about Bree, then his sad eyes about losing his lady,
then about music and sad songs, and then she spills the coffee in her
lap, and Jacob takes her to the hospital... Alex searches Curtis'
bureau drawers, finds a note pad, and does the pencil-rub trick to
uncovers Curtis' fake Buck Houston signatures... Curtis goes to the
funeral home to say goodbye to Stacey, and tells her that Buck killed
any chance they had at happiness and he must be punished... Tess is
surprised Clay signed the contract without reading it, and Clay tells
her to leave it alone; Tess is suspicious about why, but Clay says he
has no agenda, and she should take advantage of that, and offers her
a drink again; Tess says "Name your poison" (*heh*) and goes to the
bar...]

LMT puts down the bottle and says "Did you hear what Tess said? 
She asked Clay to name his poison.  Poison!  I'm keeping my eye on
her."

[What happens: Charles says Angie should drown herself in him, not
work, but his beeper goes off... it's Alex, telling him to come to
Corinth Towers and see what Curtis has been up to... Jacob brings
Lorraine to Angie, who says she should get treatment... Tess pours
tequila for herself and the Brandy of Death for Clay; she asks him
why he's down, and Clay says he's lonely and deserves it because
of the game he's always played, and that it's because of him that
Curtis and Trisha are lost to him, he's a lousy father because it was
always too hard; she discoves they're in the Alden house all alone,
and they go upstairs to go for it... a shadow moves downstairs...]

[Lorraine thanks Jacob for helping her and gives him a kiss, which 
Angie sees... Alex shows Charles the rubbing of Buck's signature,
and Alex says they can get Curtis if they match the signature to
the plane ticket purchase, but Charles says they can't because it's
an illegal search and Charles has to go by the book now; Alex wants
to try to force a confession out of Curtis, Charles doesn't want to
let him, and Alex gives him grief; Charles eventually lets him go
ahead... Clay and Tess are going for it, and Curtis peeks into the
room; Clay is laying on top of Tess, and she says he's crushing her,
but she realizes he's dead and freaks... clicking sound is heard
downstairs, and the photo fragments is dropped...]

LMT is looking at the photo fragment and says "I know this picture
piece is a major clue to figuring out the killer... I just wish I knew
what it was a picture of!  Anyway, keep watching, we'll get to the
bottom of this, I promise."

My comments; they're pointing hard at Curtis in these two episodes.
Yesterday was the episode where he talked about eliminating his
problems one by one, and his obsession with Stacey, and today
they were hitting hard on the importance of the brandy.  Plus, we
now know the picture is of Curtis and Trisha.  Hmm...
Also, the clicking sound sounds to me like the rhythm someone's
feet make when they limp.  Can't think of who has a limp, but that
cli-click sound sounds like it to me.
