Plot[]

Following the events at the end of the previous chapter, the five are stunned by the news that Norman will be sent. Ray sees Emma's leg broken and asks Mama Isabella what happened, she replies that it broke it, but in a way that she can heal in 1 or 2 months, stating that she hopes it will heal by Ray's birthday, irritating the same, who calls her a bitch in thought. Isabella asks Norman for the bag with the ropes, he hands it over and everyone returns to the house , where the children worry and are scared when they see Emma's condition.

Outside, Don , Gilda and Ray talk about what happened. With the plan to investigate and escape impossible, Don asks what they are going to do, Ray says they have to make Emma heal fast, make new ropes and that they will escape, something he would do himself, but they would have to focus on Norman now. Gilda questions why Norman among them all was chosen, Don finds the situation strange, remembering that high grades result in quality, so Norman should be one of the last to be sent, Ray agrees. In thought, he sees as a possibility that Headquarters ordered Norman's death, recalling the conversation with Mama the day before , also recalling that she had eliminated Sister Krone, cut ties with him and broke Emma's leg, all for the sending to happen. Gilda can't believe that even Krone would be eliminated, Don remembers she was alive and smiling before lunch, but her living body no longer exists, wondering if that's what would happen to Norman.

Norman is dead in Emma's mind.

In the infirmary, Norman is at Emma's bedside. She, in thought, says she can't feel anything in her leg anymore, she looks at Norman and imagines him dead in the truck in front of her, making sure he's going to die. He tells Emma not to worry, as Mama just got her ropes and still didn't know the real plan, stating that Emma's leg would get better and her plan would be successfully carried out. She's not worried about running away, she's worried about Norman's life. He leaves the infirmary to get a glass of water for Emma, ​​so Thoma and Lani come in to see her. On the way, Norman recognizes how pathetic he was that he desperately wanted to live and drops to his knees in front of the drinking fountain, repeating over and over that he wants to stay alive with his brothers.

Outside, Don asks Ray what they are going to do and he replies fiercely that they will free Norman at all costs. Both Ray and Emma are planning to make Norman escape anyway and prevent his death. Ray tells Don and Gilda that they still have one day to make Norman escape, but considers the possibility that he refuses. Meanwhile, Norman thinks that if he escapes, chances are Emma and Ray will be sent and also security could be increased, not allowing a second escape. Determined to stay and accept his fate, Norman claims he will completely ruin Mama's plans before then. Returning to the infirmary, he finds Emma and Ray staring at him, they claim they won't let him die and that he will escape the next day.
