And didn't Ivanova's voice over mention that it's been a week since President Santiago's assassination?

"Points of Departure" is explicitly set January 8, so a week after the assassination - "Chrysalis" was set on New Year's Eve. But there's nothing that ties "Revelations" to a specific date... I understand that officially, it's meant to take place soon after "Departure", but it just feels to me like more time has passed between the two than passed between "Chrysalis" and "Departure".
