- Back at Evergreen, Mr. Hooft is getting an oxygen treatment while Reese is just sitting there silently, trying to keep him company.
- He thinks about a letter he received that morning, from his friend K-Man. He hasn't read it yet.
- Mr. Hooft finishes his treatment. As Nancy takes his vitals, he complains, which endears him somewhat to Reese.
- Nancy tells Reese he reminds her of the Hausa people in Africa, where she's from, and then she leaves.
- Mr. Hooft jokes around with Reese, albeit somewhat racist-ly (not a word, but totally should be). They bond while talking about their bullies (King Kong and the guy who died in Mr. Hooft's children's camp) some more.
- Mr. Hooft tries to explain what it's like to lose yourself when you've been in the camp too long, but Reese doesn't get it.
- Reese cleans the room and they talk about King Kong a bit more. Mr. Hooft seems amused that Reese's jail is called Progress.
- The conversation shifts back to Mr. Hooft's camp. He says that after he was released, he became a hero back home; then he moved to America for a successful career.
- Mr. Hooft says that when he gets out of Evergreen, Reese can visit him. Reese starts to say that Mr. Hooft is never getting out, but he thinks better of it.
- Reese leaves after Mr. Hooft falls asleep. Mr. Pugh is a bit late picking him up, and when he performs the strip search, he confiscates the letter from K-Man.
- On the way back to Progress, Reese reflects on the similarities between him and Mr. Hooft: They're both in "lockdown" situations.
