Ship Cabin

Adjacent Cabin

This cabin sits next door to Indy's quarters on the ship, linked by a simple interior door that allows Marion to slip through during their nighttime reunion. The space implies cramped maritime confines—wood-paneled walls, a narrow bunk, and the gentle rock of ocean waves outside. Marion emerges from here in her prim white nightgown, carrying the quiet intimacy of shared passage amid the vessel's nocturnal hush, bridging their cabins into a single emotional territory.

Functional Role

Staging area for Marion's reveal; source of wardrobe and background life aboard the ship.
