In this chapter, we learn that the young man has been bullied since he was a child. He tells us that his grandfather looked healthier than he did, and that he has been teased for being so inferior. He compares his grandfather to a "weirdo" and says that he and his father will look "abnormal" together at a party tonight. The young man says that if only he were his father, he would be as good as his father. He says that his father is the greatest scientist in the world, and he will "atone for sins" and "destroy them all" . He promises to bring his father justice, no matter what the "crimson loop" or "black dwarf" is. He will use his hands to continue the experiment until it "blossoms" , and then he will give his father what he wants when he has done his revenge. He explains that killing his father and supporting him was the "most valuable investment" he ever made. He also says that the old man trusted him too much, and now he looks more like his father than he is. It is time for him to wake up, he says.
