Summary- John arrives at the Park Lain Hospital for the Dying to see his mom. He on the way to her bed he is confronted by a nurse who is confused by John saying Linda is his mom and proceeds to her bedside. After getting in to a good mood about his mom, a Bokanovskivfied group of children come in and start asking questions about Linda. He the pushed the kids away and the nurse then moved the kids back to the group after John threatened her. He then talked to his mom and she thought that it was Popè but realized it was John and began to choke. John ran to the Nurse and told he killed her. A mob of children began moving toward them but she defused the situation by offering chocolate to them. Three of the kids asked if Linda was dead but John ignored them and when they asked again he just pushed them over and left.


importance- John learns that like being born the civilized world, death in it is completely different from his world and is not a big deal in the civilized world.
