He strikes a deal with the Gibborim to exchange one innocent soul for Gert's life and eventually settles on sacrificing himself, viewing his life as worthless compared to Gert's. He only bids Nico farewell and promises to rid her of the Staff of One when he goes, but she gathers the runaways to follow him and intervene. The Gibborim ultimately tell Chase his self-sacrifice is unacceptable and try to consume Nico instead. Victor and Molly rescue Nico as the Gibborim die without a soul to consume.

[T]heir relationship was threatened when Gert learned that Nico had kissed Chase in a moment of passion. Though Chase rebuffed Nico's advances, Gert was still hurt that Chase had kept the interaction hidden from her. She revealed her insecurity about her appearance and fear that Chase would eventually leave her for a more conventionally pretty girl. She strongly implied that she was hurt beyond reconciliation, but still selflessly dashed into a burning building to save Chase from Geoffrey Wilder after their falling out. She bluffed some details about Chase's past to keep Geoffrey from sacrificing Chase and Geoffrey fell for the bluff, but plunged his dagger into Gert's stomach instead. As she lay dying, she transferred control of Old Lace to Chase and forgave Chase for Nico's kiss.
