About
At Joseph Sullivan's funeral, Samuel throws a compass into his brother's grave.
Noah takes a key from Danko's belly and uses it to open a safety deposit box at the New York Federal Bank. Inside the box, Noah finds a compass that doesn't seem to work. Outside Mercy Heights Hospital, Peter holds the compass, and it spins wildly. Later, when Peter rushes to help a reported stabbing victim, he finds it is Noah who has been stabbed by Edgar who then took the compass. Edgar gives the compass to Samuel.
Samuel tells Edgar to retrieve the compass. He watches Noah and Peter outside of a hospital with the compass, then tracks down Noah, slashes through him with one of his knives, and takes the compass.
Noah collects pictures of compasses in his apartment. He reads an article in The Journal about a compass that "changed the world".
At the carnival, Samuel gives Tracy a compass and tells her to use it if she accepts his invitation to join the family. After leaving Noah, she contemplates the spinning compass, and it stops, points her north.
Noah finds an compass in Becky's apartment, later asks to Samuel where the compass is used for, Samuel says that it's used to hide the carnival for people like Noah.
