Yeah, I doubt Maeve was planning on standing around to be nuked by the island's failsafe.

Unless she didn't even _know_ the jailbreak would cause something on the order of a mid-size meteor strike. I suppose it's possible she was that reckless, and Nemesis might let her think she'd be fine to get her to go through with it.

The circle that Lily put up would have disappeared at sunrise, and everyone was mortal till then so they were clearly planning to be done before the mortality clause expired. Again it just comes back to the point that just because somthing unleashes insane amounts of devastation doesn't mean it can kill something even if said thing is mortal.

Mr. Death:
I'm pretty sure Bob or Kringle actually says that the actual explosion will happen the day after.

Lilly did not know and Maeve was infected. It could have been a suicidal mission anyway.

Jim defines Halloween differently than the calendar.  The calendar clicks over at midnight, Halloween ends at the first birdsong.  The island explodes on November 1.  Halloween ends at dawn, on November 1.
