Three months have passed since Nemo's death, and Alek is back at the earthlight academy. He's still moping about his friends' deaths, and he's not happy about the fact that the school has decided that Alek and his friends need more structure and time to get away from it all. Alek tells Alek that he used to go to the school when he was five years old, and that's how he came to know the place. Alek says that the adults at the school are too busy with their own problems to take care of the school's needs. Alek points out that the guy who runs the school doesn't seem to have much of an interest in running the place, because he seems to be the one who owns it. Alek wants to know what's going on with the school, but Alek can't figure out how to ask his mom why she's so busy with the other kids. Alek asks Alek to change the statistics on how many kids are killed in the school to two percent, which would mean that only three kids have been killed since the school opened. Alek thinks that this is a good thing, because the school was very close to shutting down.
