And that's the big reveal, thus answering the question that many of you have been asking for all this time, for pretty much the entire chapter.  Raise your hand if you saw that coming!

(Put your hands down, you liars.)

By the way, major kudos to Joan for that horrifying image which I'll never be able to wash out of my eyes.

We're going to start wrapping up this chapter soon . . . and who knows where things will go from there!  (We do, actually.  It's going to be fun.)
