In EP2, Yasu almost certainly just gives one to Rosa from upstairs somewhere.
In EP3, they're somewhere Kratsuhi can direct the adults to easily enough.

I can't remember... do they get the key of the study in Ep 3?

And as someone suggested much earlier, there will be a P.S from Kinzo about how he's skipped town and plans to never return.

Probably she would deliver it in an Ep 5 fashion but yes, she might have one already ready.

Well, I've only read the summary but didn't the 'she can do anything she wants as long as it can be loosely justified as "tearing apart the two who are close."' refers to how she deals with the parting part, not with the murdering part?

I would expect Beato to keep the 'killing' the same as in the other cases... as when at the end of the game Battler will find Shannon's body she'll have a stake near her.
