Ed and Mabel’s secret life aboard the ship required careful planning. They developed routines that mimicked the habits of other passengers to avoid suspicion. They ate at different restaurants, attended shows sporadically, and even made friends with other travelers—only to say goodbye as if they were leaving too.
