This chapter shows preparation for the mission and care for the family

The narrative begins months before the mission. At home, McMahon tends to his pet bird while being scolded by Maureen for supposedly doing nothing. He replies that he has already finished his chores and, upon receiving the lunch she prepared, heads off to work.

During work hours, his colleague Dominic notices the elaborate meal and comments on Maureen's culinary skills. Furthermore, the conversation also mentions other secondary characters in the story, such as Camilla and Millie Myers, who show jealousy over the attention McMahon receives.

Concern for home guides decisions before departure

Knowing that his wife wouldn't be able to feed the bird properly, McMahon anticipates the need by preparing Keekee's food before leaving. Maureen, though reluctant, accepts the task on the condition of receiving souvenirs from the trip. The agreement between the couple reveals a relationship marked by affection and negotiation, even amidst a routine of constant danger.

The character's concern with keeping his promise is so great that he spends the night thinking about souvenirs. This passage underscores the desire to survive not only for the mission itself, but also for the expectation of returning home and keeping his word.

The mission is skipped and the focus shifts to the couple's reunion

After a time jump, McMahon returns from work and declines a dinner invitation, preferring to go straight home. Maureen greets him with a bandage on his face and asks him to retire. The killer, however, states that he will continue as long as necessary, revealing a sense of duty that he balances with his married life.

However, even though she's reluctant, Maureen welcomes her husband with dinner. The couple shares a tender moment at the table, ending the chapter with McMahon praising the food and being reminded by his wife about the promised gifts.
