If Rufus knew that Stephen made a habit of spiking drinks he would have been more careful.

Oh Wait...................

That's a very good point - so obvious that I missed it completely.

No doubt following on from her success getting Damon acquitted, Dee Dee will spot this flaw when she represents Stephen in court at some point in the far distant future, and get him off, claiming Rufus didn't take adequate precautions when drinking with a mass murderer.

Do I get the job as a scriptwriter?

Double D will claim that it was Rufus's fault because he supplied the drug

Double D will claim that it was Rufus's fault because he supplied the drug

and therefore...suicide.

[Perdita]

She wasn't wearing a wig was she ?

No, the prosecution lawyer did but Dee-Dee did not

[Perdita]

Is Dee-Dee Adam's employee or partner in the law firm? Adam will find out about her knowing about Sarah's fling with Damon and that will cause problems, could she lose her job as employee? We have never been told where she qualified as lawyer, might have been in UK, she might have been working in LA for an international company advising on English law, she was in Brussels on a conference when she was expected to come to Ed's 55th birthday a couple of years ago so that could explain that she is qualified to work in UK.

Post Mortem ?

Post Mortem ?

That will show he died of an LSD overdose surely?
Seeing as he bought the drugs and passed them on to Stephen, there will be no one to volunteer having sold them to Rufus, and no one knows Rufus gave them to Stephen either.

They will know about the LSD but he died because he drowned.

[RogerOver]

They will know about the LSD but he died because he drowned.

I wonder if they might conclude Rufus drowned due to the LSD overdose?

I'm only saying that because the symptoms Carla had (and Stephen too when he accidentality drank Carla's laced drink), seemed to render them unable to function normally.
Could it be concluded Rufus fell in the pool and was unable to climb out, being incapable? It's purely a question, as I don't know.
