Did the thing that she noticed make her realize that the clerk had stolen her idea?

Did stealing the idea hurt the woman financially?
Was the idea that the clerk stole a business model? a criminal scheme? a patent concept?

Was the clerk an employee of the shop?

Did she shoot the clerk? Did she kill him with a blunt object? Did she kill him with a sharp object?

Did the clerk plan to steal her idea, before he was aware of the details? Did the clerk become aware of the idea by accidentally overhearing or watching her?
