This hasn't been brought up yet, but I want to point out the clock in the background.

To me, it's significant. Otherwise it would have been present in the library the first time. But it wasn't. And now it's here for 11 minutes straight. Quietly counting down to....?

Not only do we then hear about how Saul wears his heart on his sleeve, but you also can hear CJ's heart breaking as Saul continues to plan on leaving her for Lizzy.

Not only that, but how did the chapter end? With the clock ticking on in the silence. And it did not end on the "tock" it ended up the "tick." I like the absolute lack of resolution. It's sort of like that frustrating thing when you're listening to a song and you hear the everything resolving down to that final chord to complete the phrase but someone changes the station. It drives me crazy I know that.

Anyone else have thoughts on the clock and what it might mean to Saul, Cj, and the rest of our survivors?
