When Susan comes in, she's left most of her gifts behind in varying spots about the Mansion, though she's retrieved the chess piece again, where it rests heavily in her pocket. Also - and this must not be underemphasized - there is one persistent balloon which she finds she cannot abandon. It bobbles along behind her, adhering in a variety of ways that spurn her attempts to leave it with the rest, and so she has ceased trying. Currently its ribbon is tangled in her bootlaces.
