Hammerdasher seems about as angry as Marrin/Marta has seen so far.
"Of course it's bloody still there," he says mostly to himself. "We should have realized she couldn't have just moved it right under our noses. Damn it all."
Ula places a hand on his arm to try and calm him.
Ethel is quiet and contemplative for a moment but finally nods and turns to Marrin/Marta, leaning on her cane as she does.
"We'd be giving her leverage over her competition and their families. She could hurt innocents because of what's in those ledgers," she says but then she takes a deep breath. "But given what we've seen so far and what Geffroi has seen, I think letting the Hargroves into that catacomb vault could end up meaning a lot more innocent people could be killed."
Her had runs absently over her own scars.
"And I can't say there wouldn't be some personal satisfaction in seeing the Hargrove's faces when they find out what we've done."
