An incensed Giovanni orders his son and the robots to move away from the android, and Victor explains how they found and repaired Hap. Hap promises not to hurt anyone, but Giovanni grows frightened and orders Victor and his friends to leave the lab when he inspects Hap’s designation plate. Hap flees into the forest with Giovanni in pursuit. Victor and his friends follow the androids’ trail north. Hap comes out of hiding to prevent Rambo from accidentally crushing a monarch butterfly, revealing his location to Giovanni and the others in the process. Hap mentions that his chest feels different now, prompting Giovanni to discover the heart that Victor built. When Victor confirms that he bled into the heart, his father whispers, “What have you done?” (102).

On their way home, Hap tells Rambo that he dislikes the robot vacuum, and Nurse Ratched threatens to shock the android if he hurts her friend. Giovanni sends Victor to bed. He promises not to harm Hap, but Hap is still reluctant to see Victor go. The next morning, Nurse Ratched tells Victor that she and Giovanni confirmed that Hap’s memory banks have been wiped.
