Steeply's B.S.S. dossier: the widow, "political sex," and the medical attaché

pivotal · 30 April – 1 May YDAU — separatist-ties crux

• When: 30 April YDAU, the desert interface with Marathe (per the archive's ruling, one night)
• What: B.S.S. is probing whether the auteur's widow links to the Saudi medical attaché who received the Entertainment. Steeply reports the file: "This wife herself a Québecer, Rémy, from L'Islet county — Chief Tine says three years spent on Ottawa's 'Personnes Qui On Doit' list. There's such a thing as political sex," and "the wife was fucking just about everything with a pulse.... Particularly a Canadian pulse." Marathe is unpersuaded of A.F.R. involvement. The dossier makes Avril a live intelligence question at the novel's geopolitical center — the surveillance list (event 4) reframed as possible operational significance. Cf. Notkin's contrary read (event 34). Left open.
