In this chapter, Dr. Manette explains how she's been able to use the scriptures to unlock all the positions in her body. She's also able to take advantage of a hormonal storm in her kidneys to do the same. She wonders if it's because of the gray qi she saw in the hospital the day before. She also wonders if the rune in the scriptures is connected to the wisps of gray qi that she saw during the day at the hospital. She asks the rich man if he's worried about his mom's new university job. The rich man says he doesn't worry about it now, since he quit his job a year ago. The man asks if he can scratch the paint on his new car, since it'll cost him a lot of money to repair it. He also asks if the mirrors on the car are supposed to be toys, since they're supposed to look like toys. He says he can take off all of the mirrors at will. He's on the news that a mechanic at an auto shop has stolen a luxury car and driven it off a mountain road. The driver of the car has also died, and the man who took the car off the road is the same man who stole the car in the first place. The narrator says that the man was messing with him on purpose, and that the very first thing he did was take the steering wheel off the car.
