1931 Winter: The Time of the Oasis/Epilogue: The White Rabbits Return from the Tea Party

Synopsis
The situation by the river concludes with the police arriving on the scene and arresting the Lemures. While nobody was killed in the incident, Sarges sustained severe injuries that might take anywhere from several months to several years to recover from.

A few hours later, Carzelio Runorata sleeps in the front seat of a truck sent by the Runorata Family. Though he would have to return to the life he had desperately tried to escape from the day before, he feels far less torment than before, satisfied by the "oasis" of the outside world for the time being.

Much later in his life, Cazze would go on to be one of the most feared men among the underground of the east coast, becoming known as an innocent dictator who "tamed enormous monsters."

On their way away from the scene, Pamela and Lana bicker in their usual fashion about the situation that had unfolded back by the river, which Sonia quickly shuts down by telling the two of them that Nader would have come to save them if they'd been in any real danger. Lana protests that Nader hasn't helped the group once, but Sonia insists that he's probably just been assisting them from the shadows the whole time; unbeknownst to her, Nader would arrive at that very scene just hours after she, Pamela, and Lana left it.

Pamela finally relents and thanks Lana for trying to put herself in the line of fire in an attempt to save her and Sonia, which flusters the unsuspecting Lana. Pamela muses to herself that the two of them just might be her "life's biggest oasis," but says nothing aloud and steps harder on the gas. A few minutes later, the three of them come across a man with a sniper rifle lying in the road.

On the way to New York City, Melody and a select number of Jacuzzi's Gang get to know Chané Laforet, who had asked them to bring her with them to New York. On the way there, they express their frustration at not knowing what had really happened on the river, and Melody pipes up that they can just ask everyone else who'd been present the next time they see eachother, expressing confidence that they'll meet again. Chaini unexpectedly speaks up and reaffirms Melody's line of thinking.

Following their arrival in New York, the delinquents go on to take up residence in the Genoard Family's second home.
