Olivia Benford and her daughter Charlie Benford attend a school carnival. Dyson Frost drives there, with an unconscious Demetri Noh in the back seat. ("Let No Man Put Asunder")
When Charlie is out of Olivia's sight, Frost makes contact with her. Frost discusses Dr. Seuss with her and hands her a nude painting with a message on the back for her to give to Mark Benford. ("Let No Man Put Asunder") ("The Garden of Forking Paths")
The word "CARNIVAL" appears in white on Dyson Frost's wall. ("The Garden of Forking Paths")
