Jerked back to reality by a nasty patch of ice, Tina curses as she picks her groceries up. Continuing her walk home, she again is plagued by what happened at work today. The implant is causing George’s brain to swell and led to violent outbursts. Mike had to use the stun gun twice today on him. The look on George’s face just before he lost consciousness is imprinted in her memory. She was too stunned at the time to discern the exact look he gave her, but it was eating away at her slowly.
She unceremoniously drops her bags inside the door, checks her mail, and waves at the neighbors. One message on the machine from her colleague and boyfriend Mike, “Call me as soon as you get home! George is awake and there is something in his eyes

Thank you,
