I have carefully gone over the text and have a theory that covers all of the major plot points in "Kevin Malone" -- I think.

There is no way to explain it without divulging parts of the plot, so be warned!

Well, it all fits. Anyone buying it?
Nope! Far too complicated. Tony's theory, which I worked out independently following his original posting and even extended a little, is much simpler, scarier, and fits the story perfectly without requiring so many Malones to work at the same house.
SBear.
Will someone post/put on the web this second theory? Mark it with spoiler warnings if necessary. I'd really like to see it.
