How is Alexandra tangled in Trubitsky’s murder?
When Trubitsky’s murder is investigated, Imogene and Rufus conclude that the murderer used a bar cart to enter Trubitsky’s room and kill him.
It turns out that the bar cart that delivered the killer was ordered from Tripp’s room.
Tripp doesn’t remember doing that because it was Alexandra who ordered the bar cart, as the two are having an affair and Alexandra was in his room that night.
After learning how she has gotten herself and Tripp involved in a murder, Alexandra realizes that her relationship with Tripp was a mistake. Alexandra ends things with Tripp to save herself.
Alexandra’s secret and her death
In the third episode of Death and Other Details, during a conversation with Father Toby, Alexandra reveals to him that she sent the bar cart to Trubitsky’s room.
She also confesses why she did that. Her staff got a call from SuperPAC. They asked her to make nice with Trubitsky and even suggested the champagne vintage.
They couldn’t tell her who the donor was. Even Alexandra didn’t think about it. She needs names. Hence, she tasks Father Toby to find out who made that request.
Alexandra suspects Lawrence Collier, who is the only donor on this cruise. Later in the show, she is blackmailed using intimate pictures of her and Tripp together.
Alexandra grows paranoid and eventually decides to use a case against the Colliers. She brings strong evidence against them to Hilde.
However, the file she has turns empty, and she dies on the spot because of the IV drip she had been taking.
