All the Little Raindrops

Evan and Noelle understand that they need the codes for their cage locks and hope to be able to see them when the henchman types them in; he always wears a silver tie pin that might reflect the codes. When she returns, Noelle sings another children’s song, conveying that she stole part of a pencil while she was away, as well as the words “Plug” and “Fire.” Eventually, Evan understands that she is proposing that they start a fire with the electrical outlet and the pencil piece. That night, they link fingers again.

Days pass, and they continue to work out a plan. The next time the henchman enters, Evan begs for release, and the man threatens to tase him. Evan continues the “performance” and braces for the jolt. When the man tases him, Evan keeps his eyes open, watching as the man types in his code on the keypad.

The Collector doesn’t typically drink, but he toasts Noelle with a shot of $6,000 bourbon and then smashes the remainder of the bottle. He pulls out the envelope containing her note, hoping that she stole a large enough piece of graphite for his plan to work. He knows that he must blend in with the other players if he’s to help her and Evan escape, and revealing his accent to Noelle was a small risk.
