Why wouldn't the lawyer, (Dinesh), notify Trent about the inheritance? After all Katie (or Kate as I named her), is supposed to get married by the end of the summer cruise, and she is already engaged to Trent (or Dick as I named him).

When Trent pulls the fake visa scam and effectively becomes married to her all she has to do to claim her share of the inheritance was go through with the ceremony. Nobody was aware that Katie and Trent had broken up before joining the cruise.

Also, as Katie and Trent have been engaged for years, then Nana's instructions to Dinesh would probably have named Trent as the significant other to whom Nana thought Katie would be marrying.

As for why Dinesh didn't invite Elena (me thinking ahead here to cover potential questions), it's relatively simple. No-one knew who Elena was. They had a given name, but that's all. And Alex isn't exactly coming forward with any details or correcting any mistaken perceptions.

Everybody else's tasks are effectively solo efforts, in that they don't need another person to be involved.
