One day, the Reestablishment, a government that has the world within its grasp, comes for Juliette. She shows Adam the ways of the asylum, such as not to eat the scalding food immediately, and when the asylum's occupants are allowed to shower. He reminds Juliette of someone, but she convinces herself that it is not possible that she ever knew him. Suddenly, for the first time ever, Juliette gets a cellmate who goes by the name of Adam Kent. She repeatedly dreams of a bird and writes in a small notebook.
