When they get back to their hotel, they hear voices and footsteps. They see a man in a black mask and a woman in a sour face. The man in the mask says that once they change the gate frequency, they'll be stranded in the snow for the rest of their lives. The woman in the black mask asks if she can hurt her, but the woman says no. She wants to look at the woman, but she's afraid that monkeys will fly out of her butt. She runs to get the commissars, but they won't let her in. She decides to hide under her bed. The commissars laugh at her and tease her about how old she is. She asks if they can hide in the room under the bed, and they agree. They decide to tie the cat up and tie him up to get on with their mission.
