The next day Hannah and Jerome are curious about the harbor. Jerome wears a suit and black leather slippers. Under the suit jacket he wears a white shirt and suspenders. Hannah a simple black dress with red pumps. Satisfied, she looks at Jerome, she runs her hand over his jacket and says seductively:

"Although you look so good in this suit, I would like to tear it off from your body."

Jerome laughs softly and turns to her. He gently holds her chin in his white-gloved hands and was about to kiss her, but at that moment the boat goes to the two to take them to the yacht. Jerome snorts angrily and Hannah looks annoyed at the boat. He lets her go and returns to normal. An African-American man in a black suit gets off the boat and goes to the two.

"Hannah Black and Jerome Valeska?", he asks both.

"Of course.", grins Jerome.

The man nods to the captain and all three go to the boat. In freezing wind they drive over the sea. Hannah's hair is flying in the wind and she starts to feel cold. Jerome whistles in a relaxed mood, putting one arm around Hannah and the other along the seat back. From a distance Hannah can see a bright light the light is coming closer, it comes from the gigantic, ice-white yacht. After a few minutes, they get up and carefully jump over to the yacht. Hannah and Jerome go ahead and behind the two the man. Hannah looks suspicious, because it is very quiet. They go to the other end and can discover all the blood and corpses on the ground. They are his watchmen, all in black suits, just like the black man. He immediately pulls his weapon and proceeds cautiously. Jerome his revolver and Hannah has now a pistol always with her. Jerome gave it to her a few days ago. It is black with red engraving. It says:

~ Mr. J - H + J ~

Carefully they go over the corpses to a seat circle. Hannah sees Rick Blanco sitting on the sofa from behind. He sits there completely normal and wondering she goes around him to see him from the front. He is dead with a bullet in his head and his cigar still in his mouth. Hannah hears a small beeping and she looks at him a little bit. A lot of explosives are laced around his stomach and in between a counter that shows the rest of the time on a screen. 06-05-04 ....
Hannah opens her eyes wide and screams loudly:

"BOMB!!!"

Then she takes Jerome by the hand as fast as she can and both run as fast as they can to the edge of the yacht and jump. Exactly at that moment the bomb goes up and the whole yacht goes up in the air. The man is out of time and he is completely torn apart by the explosion. Hannah and Jerome are underwater, holding their hands over their heads and chewing as they hold their breath. A loud bang can be heard and suddenly it gets light. Because the burning parts sink to the ground next to the two and the parts of the yacht, which are still floating on the water, burn brightly. The light of the flames shines into the water and around the two are only broken parts of the yacht and soot particles. As it calms down, they both appear and take a deep breath. Hannah and Jerome look shocked at the burning parts. Hannah's make-up is complete destroyed and her eyelashes make her face black, but that does not matter to Hannah, she's just glad Jerome and she are still alive. Without a word she hugs him as hard as she can.

"I can not keep both of us afloat- arghhhh...", he complains as he then swallows water.

Hannah lets go of him and after a bit of coughing he comes back to himself. Both grab two parts that float on the water to hold on to it. The situation seems hopeless because the small boat has been destroyed too and they are too far away from the mainland to swim. Worried, she looks at Jerome and gets sad. But suddenly Hannah hears the sound of a motorboat. She turns and sees Jervis in a speedboat on the two drive. Relieved, the two grin, Jervis reaches out to Hannah to pull her onto the boat, then Jerome. Puffing, both sit down.

"Where to now?", asks the captain.

"To the port please.", Jervis answers politely.

Jervis sits down and looks at both. Soaking wet, Hannah and Jerome sit side by side and say nothing.

"Well, that shouldn't have happened.", he breathes.

"How could you find us so fast?",Jerome asks him, still panting heavily.

"So I never let you out of my sight. I was always there.", he grins.

"And why didn't you do it yourself?!", Hannah grunts.

"If something had gone wrong, as it ultimately was, I'm not the right person for that kind of thing. Problem Situations are more for you.", Jervis smiles.

Jerome laughs briefly, but his grin disappears quickly.
