How did the fire safety keys get in the antiques store?
As you might remember, Brenda was in there interviewing Alexei, much to his outrage and little to her benefit. She must have dropped them there, since she's certainly the one who shut off the fire alarm.
I'm more interested in how Brenda got those keys in the first place. Did Toni give them to her? She's a city official, after all, so she'd have access to those keys -- and I wouldn't put it past her to be up to her tightly-wound little neck in any scheme to get rid of Nancy.
