Days later, when a quad of the former prisoners sneaks into the main base, the couple hide among them. Their plan is to enter HQ as an advance scout team, win over their fellow prisoners, and free them once and for all.
Inside the base, the couple search for escape routes. They realize this is the first time they have moved freely about the facility, and wonder why they had been so obedient back then. But as they search, the commander arrives once again to answer their questions. He tells them how humanity died out long ago, and how the prisoners are all clones implanted with false memories that motivate them to fight against the Flowers. He then informs the woman that she must face her final test, causing pain to shoot through her head once more.
