- Ann-KF asks if she can join Ann, who looks up and pulls her onto the bed, obviously happy to see 'Knave'.
- Ann-KF asks Ann what he looks like to her, the responce to which is "like Kitty me". Ann then explains that she's let out a lot, unlike the other 'guys' (Ann's personality fragments) so knows what's going on. This leads Ann-KF to ask Ann where he can find the "other guys".

- The orb reduces the wall to a piles of dust, revealing a small chamber full of many blue wisps. As this happens, the second group of guards arrive, pulling their guns on Sage and ordering him to stop.
- Turning on them, Sage disarms them with a wave of his hand, before requesting they don't force him to take this any further as he's doing this for Ann.
- The guards pull handcuffs from their belts. Most them move to surround Sage, while one cautiously approaches, saying they know what's best for Ann and he should leave her memories alone.
- Sage says he doubts they could know what's best, before freezing them all in a Stasis Field and entering the room with the wisps. Then, with a well practised spell, he releases all of Ann's repressed memories.
