Pierce had an illegitimate daughter with a woman named Alanis
we found a locket in Pierce’s study engraved “A.A.”
There’s someone named Taylor Acosta running around connected to both Nikolai and the Sterlings
Bryce was spying on Kate and stole her bra (ew)
theories:
Alanis is actually Alanis Acosta and Taylor is her and Pierce’s illegitimate daughter
Bryce killed his brother out of jealousy
Taylor and Nikolai are behind the stalker photos, the kidnapping, Bryce’s murder, etc (also Duffy? maybe?)
Nikolai wants revenge because he was in love with Margaret and Taylor wants the Sterling inheritance
Duffy killed/tried to kill Nikolai because he didn’t want him to give Duffy and Taylor away (the “still alive” could refer to one of the Acostas? Bryce?)
