This chapter opens with a description of a doghouse, which is described as being "clean and hygienic." The dog, named Snow, is a stray that the hostel took in. The dog's name is Lin-Horan, and the hostel's owner tells him that he will be sent to a rescue center in the next few days. When the dog is gone, the other dogs in the room complain about the smell of the doghouse. They think it must be a fake, but the owner assures them that it is a clean and hygienic place. The fourth dog in the group arrives, and they wonder what will happen after the previous night's game.
