departs
Exits the scene
Departs means to leave or go away from a place: The train departs at noon, She departs for London tomorrow.
To depart from something is to deviate from it: The film departs from the novel in significant ways.
The departed is a euphemism for the dead, especially the recently deceased: We gather to remember the departed.
