Deborah tells Furii another secret. Deborah admits that she was a captured Japanese soldier during World War II. That was an explanation for her otherness at the time because Deborah was the enemy, and although she was Japanese, no one ever recognized her.

That night Deborah feels a breakdown coming on and asks for help. When she wakes up in the pack, Sylvia is in the room with her. They stay in the pack for so long that Deborah is in pain, and Sylvia talks to her until the attendants come to unwrap them.
