Zara,The surgeon reacts to this confession in a nonplussed fashion, sputtering wordlessly, obviously taken by surprise. Lota, on the other hand, seems to be enraged, snarling and slashing at you with her nails, which now do really seem to be claws.

It is fortunate that her anger causes her to strike out wildly, not coming anywhere hear you. In response, the surgeon takes a small whip from the pocket of his long white coat and brandishes it at her.
"No, Lota, no! Do you wish to go back to the House of Pain?"
The two men speak simultaneously, obviously words they have recited many times before.
"Not to spill blood. That is the Law. Are we not Men?"
Having gotten the enraged woman under control for the moment, the surgeon wipes sweat from his brow.
"Dear, dear. What to do, what to do. I shall have to take you to the Doctor. He will not be pleased, not pleased at all." He seems as distressed at this possibility as you might be.
You are taken out of the operating room, and directed forward, to who-knows-where.
Tony and Liz,Having elected to go the long way around, you must pass by the large four way intersection. The tracker reveals that Zara has left the room in the upper right, and is headed in the same direction. You might intercept her at the intersection itself, wait to see where she goes from there, or catch her before she reaches it, by passing through and beyond the intersection.
