Plot[]
Summary[]
A flashback shows Hal waking up to witness Karen being dragged away by Ben and another harnessed kid. Later, Karen wakes up in a locked room with a group of other captured kids, the group discussing their situation until Megan arrives and shows off the power of being harnessed before taking two of the kids as Karen helplessly watches. While Megan is away, Karen tries to think of a plan for them to escape but can only manage to help some of the kids find a way out of the room, leaving Karen and the remaining ones to make a distraction for them to escape. When Megan returns, Karen distracts her by asking about her before they attempt to make an escape, only to be blocked by one of the captured kids that had been taken before. Now captured, Karen helplessly watches as her two fellows captured are harnessed, one being killed in the process and the other, Beth, gives in to being harnessed so she will live. As the last one to harness, Megan takes Karen to be harnessed, informing her that the other kids did indeed escape which gives Karen some comfort while she thoughtfully pleads for Tom or Hal to come to her rescue until she realizes they won't, her final thought being that she loves Hal before she is harnessed. Once harnessed, Karen is brought to the overlord and Karen thinks that she understands now.
