1935-A Deep Marble/Chapter 5: The Girl in Black Regrets Nothing

Synopsis
In an apartment previously used by the Lemures, Chané Laforet contemplates killing Ladd Russo. However, Chané's resolve to kill the man who threatened her father Huey Laforet is hampered by self-doubt.

Chané goes to the shower and reflects on the increasing amount of emotion encroaching on her actions. She believes this to be a liability to her loyalty towards Huey, and that Claire Stanfield is the greatest source of her inner turmoil. While Chané admits she loves Claire and trusts him, she fears depending on him too much. Chané decides that killing Nader Schasschule will allow her to go back to being the person she once was.

As she leaves the shower, she hears someone enter the apartment. She kicks off the floor and prepares to dispatch the intruder with her knife, but aborts the attack at the last moment upon realizing the intruder is her father. Dispassionate in the face of his daughter's state of undress, Huey asks Chané for her aid in his latest experiment.

That same day, on a transport ship on the Atlantic, two members of Rhythm survey the many armed seaplanes and flying boats around them and discuss the scale of Huey’s upcoming operation.
