1
Valmont holds all the cards in this surprise meeting, holding the threat of both Sigrid and ANNIE over your heads. It seems he doesn't want you dead, instead just wants to show you something.
2
The thing that can't wait is a replica of the Battlestar Galactica bridge. Sam and Janine try to work out Valmont's angle, but he says he really does want to help you find Selma.
3
Valmont begins taking you to Jay-Jay Nation, where Sigrid keeps the possessions of immune people. For unknown reasons he needs Paula to appear out of breath when you arrive.
4
You run into a farmer who only lets you cross his land due to Valmont playing on his heart strings, and pretending Paula is having an asthma attack.
5
Sam wants to know how Valmont knew the farmer would be sympathetic. Through ANNIE, Valmont can get intel on anyone, although he's disappointed about no longer needing cold reading skills.
6
As you run from a zombie Valmont explains how he went from grifter to Xia-Hifa CEO. He also warns you're about to crash a gangland funeral, and mustn't be late.
7
At the funeral Valmont starts yelling untruths about the person being remembered, and promptly gets your group thrown into Jay-Jay Nation as a punishment.
8
Now inside the facility, Valmont uses a hair from Selma's brush to get a DNA sample, and ANNIE locates her in a Paradise Project biosphere. You hide when someone else enters - sounds like you're not the only ones after Selma...
