Jules hurries back to her apartment. She berates herself for having been so relaxed about security and for having made so many mistakes. She feels she might be in over her head. However, she must focus and save her mom. She remembers what Adam said about the game being the most important thing to Margaux, so she decides to keep Lillian a secret. She will also use old-school methods to buy her some hope.
Margaux speaks with Wyatt. He feels that kidnapping Liz Roth was a bad idea. They have made a good amount of money so far, he adds, so they should lie low now. Margaux doesn’t care what he thinks and decides to send Liz to Correns, ordering Wyatt to watch over her. After hanging up with him, Margaux goes upstairs to speak to Liz. She asks her about Adam, why she and Jules went to Baden-Baden, and why they met with Bakker in Amsterdam afterward. Liz is defiant and refuses to say anything.
The scene from the Prologue finally plays out. Wyatt tries several times to call Margaux, but she won’t answer until after she has unveiled Woman on Fire. When she finally speaks to him, he tells her not to lose sight of Jules, because Jules knows the location of the real painting.
