As Beauvoir listens to Tessie’s briefing for the next drug raid, he struggles to focus through his fear. At the raid, Beauvoir waits in the van, wishing that it had windows so he could see where he was. An hour and a half later, he waits behind a brick wall, staring at a pill bottle in his hand. After already swallowing two OxyContin, he takes more. He is torn, “afraid to take the pill and afraid not to” (97).
At Sûreté headquarters, Gamache meets with Thérèse, who says that she and Jérôme think Gamache is out of control with paranoia.

She insists that the room is not bugged and demands that he drop the case, threatening to turn him in to Francoeur.
