  • The Interrogator bids to get a chance to question Ga about the murder of Sun Moon and her children.
  • The Interrogator figures out that Ga had been a prisoner. He strikes a deal with Ga: tell the story, and he and the interns will answer one question for him.
  • The Interrogator has to fight to get Ga back after he frightens the Pubyok with a revelation. He takes his crew into the sump to retrieve Ga, but they find that he's in a bed, suffering from electrical shocks applied to the brain.
  • The Interrogator gets Ga to tell him his oldest memory, which turns out to be a story all orphans know.

  • The Interrogator goes to the night market and barters his ID badge for a cell-phone battery to charge Ga's phone.
  • The Interrogator's press-ganged into hauling soil and goats to a roof somewhere. He wishes to write his own biography but thinks his life is unworthy of one.

  • Sarge invites the Interrogator to join the Pubyok as well, but he wants nothing to do with it.
  • The Interrogator takes his crew to the site where the artificial Texas ranch had been, but the flooding makes it impossible to find anything. No Sun Moon.
  • The Interrogator tries to save Jujack when Q-Kee denounces him for withholding information—but he fails.
  • The Interrogator wanders around Pyongyang but can't remember what he's been doing or for how long. At Division 42, he finds Ga—but with his tattoo carved off of his chest.
  • The Interrogator learns that Ga will be branded in the soccer stadium. He goes back home to execute his "plan" and feeds his parents the tainted peaches.
