The next morning, Dr. Barlow wakes up. He's not sure if he's going to be able to go back to the mountain or not. He tries to convince himself that it's okay for him to go, even though he doesn't look as good as he used to be. He tells himself that he'll be okay, even if he can't go back. He asks Barlow if he was hurt today, and Barlow says that he wasn't. He also tells Barlow that he was injured the last time he was there, and that's why he can go back now. Barlow asks what happened, and he says that it was just a minor injury. He says that if he wants to leave it that way, he can do so. Barlow tells him that it looks pretty good for him, and then he asks what the kid's been through, since he hasn't been able to get back to his old self. He then tells Barlow to go to sleep, because he won't let him leave.
