The backpack started falling the moment Naomi put it down. The gesture started the process, the result of which we saw. Current events are not sudden, they are the result of what preceded them. Even when the connection doesn't seem obvious. What happened in Albert's case and what decision will the man make when he stands over the dying bee a month and eleven days later?
