A) I'm also a fan of option A because it would be interesting to see how Racheli gets herself out of such a predicament at the beginning of season 2. I also prefer it because *hint hint* I've got some plans for Marie at the beginning of season 2 and I plan for something to happen to Joseph in this arc that will set some things into motion with her own arc in season 2, and the villains winning this one is a great segway into that.
