damn!!! did ya check out the pictures from week three? thats a lot of boxes alister had... the question is why would he be stupid enough to put it in the basement at the book cafe? of course the employees would go down there to get something atleast...you can also see that piloma found something important in the newspaper... oh yeah if you save the pictures and zoom in the 2nd picture from week three look on your right side and it look exactly to same picture from the previous picture #5.. dont you think? well, there's another clue with the picture from week three picture # 4, save the picture and zoom it in and you will see one of the painting # 2 on the newspaper.. the newspaper quote "PRICELESS PAINTINGS STOLEN"... im thinking that about all the boxes alister's owned is nothing, but people's secrets in there... from old newspapers to new newspapers... One of the newspaper says CHURCH UPROAR do you think it was the time when the church was blown up??? Discuss my Passions Fans!!!

I really don't think those boxes were just accidentally found! I think Alister has something going on and this is all one of his big schemes! Alister is not a dumb man and by far not easily broken! I think even the FBI man is somehow involved with Alister. I am even wondering if his being stabbed wasn't part of this. I don't think he is the monk, but I do think everything is rolling just the way he has planned. Everyone is playing right into his little plot the way he wants!

I've been wondering why those boxes were stored in that basement instead of the mansion or at the office vault.

i agree about the boxes...

Well Paloma and Simone accidently found the trap door at the bood cafe that goes down to that room, so maybe Al didn't think anyone would find it.

Alistair owns the book cafe and Beth is his daughter, so maybe he had them moved there for safe keeping.

i really like your train of thought, heathercole.

Didn't any of you think it was strange that there was a TV CAMERA down there with all those boxes? In one of the photos, Paloma and Jessica, I think, are talking and on the far right of the photo, you see the front half of a TV camera. That was either a mistake, which I doubt, or really strange. There's no logical reason to have a TV camera in the basement of the book cafe or even hide one there.

The picture is one of them filming the show. (Behind the scenes kind of thing)

Thanks it's just an idea! But it makes sense.

The pictures they give us aren't always clues. Some of them are behind-the-scenes photos.

I didn't think about a behind the scenes photo. Oh well, it would be an interesting twist somehow maybe...
