Reine-Marie puts off watching the video of the accident after Armand warns her about it. Her friends Clara, Myrna, Gabri, Olivier, and Ruth see the video and go to visit Reine-Marie, supporting her as she watches it on the news.

After the accident, Armand and Jean-Guy head to Charles’s apartment. On the way, Chief Superintendent Toussaint calls Armand and says that he must attend a news conference. He agrees, but Armand isn’t sure if he can trust Toussaint. At Charles’s apartment building, one of his neighbors recognizes him from the news. She says that she has never seen Charles bring home visitors and gives them the landlord’s information. The apartment has been ransacked: There are no papers or a computer, just destroyed furniture. Armand can see the edges of a map that was torn off the wall. They also find a button with a symbol they can research. As they discuss the case, Isabelle texts and says that the driver of the SUV was shot and killed and that the vehicle is in the landfill. Armand warns her about the Sûreté being compromised.

Jean-Guy discovers that the button is from a “group called Action Quebec Bleu” (74).
