if it's terrorist cells, then we're probably talking 2 mafia in each cell with one head honcho who controls the cells. They will probably have the ability to demand a cell send a suicide attack or something of that nature..
That's from day one. Seems like he told us the structure of the mafia. If it's him giving an order to somebody else, then maybe that's why there's this bizarre period of confusion. Waiting for the person to do it. If he's been ordered to do it, who by? And why? He didn't seem under too much pressure himself, so it seems a bit bizarre.
What is also bizarre is that bluestars and wes both didn't reference this directly afterwards. It's a very confusing event, that should have warranted everyone's attention. But it seemed to be completely passed over by bluestars in particular. Expecting it? Maybe there was something in Steven's defense of her (that i thought seemed reasonable at the time) for being absent after all.
It's hard to know whether to vote for steve, because obviously they might already be dead and it could be a waste. But we can't not really, in case there is a way to stop it, or in case it's an order to someone else or whatever. Too big a risk to take to just assume they're dead.
