In this chapter, the crew discovers the body of Jenni Sonders, who has apparently committed suicide by strangulation with a tie-down cord in the cargo bay. Rory conducts a preliminary forensic examination confirming the cause of death as self-inflicted strangulation, while the narrator struggles with feelings of anger and grief over Jenni's death. Subsequent conversations reveal Jenni's depressive state and the difficulty in predicting such tragic outcomes despite outward appearances.
