;Summary
 
Holly enters the Jolly Racer nightclub, hoping to isolate one of the ICON members and get some answers. She wears a physical disguise that she printed at the hotel. She brushes against dancers to hear the music, allowing her to dance to the rhythm and blend in. She uses her dancing to disguise her search for ICON members. She spots Carl Newton and Zoba Moss, then accidentally bumps into another ICON member. Holly keeps dancing, and spots Frederique Gorski on the balcony. Holly goes to the bar and orders a drink, but Carl Newton sneaks up on her and puts a gun to her head. She attacks him, stealing his gun and shooting him with a paralyzing shot. Holly uses the crowd of dancers for cover, and both her and the fire team have trouble shooting accurately with all the dancers. She shoots an ICON member in the knee, then is attacked by Zoba. Both of them roll across the dancefloor as they fight, and Holly emerges victorious, pointing a gun at them and demanding answers. Zoba tells Holly that they have a voice recorder with a message from her original. A security guard comes over and pulls them apart, then zaps Holly with an energy gun when she tries to resist.
 
Holly wakes up in a room with a security guard, only having been asleep for a short time. The guard tells her that fighting is not allowed in the Jolly Racer. He tells her that her friends are already gone, and that they left a voice recorder for her. She takes it, and the man leaves. The voice recording is from her original. She tells Holly that she is going to save Holly a lot of pain by telling her that she was not framed, and that she killed Jonathan.

;Summary
Numb and in shock, Holly processes the news. She goes up to the roof of the nightclub, angry. She crosses from rooftop to rooftop, then stops atop a building to think. She wonders again why she would've killed Jonathan, and what he could've possibly done that would've made her so angry. She reasserts to herself that the only way she would get answers would be to talk to her original. She decides to hunt her original down carefully, then make her tell her what happened before killing her.

;Summary
Holly goes to a bar late at night and orders two drinks on the rocks. She gets some physical pencil and paper, and wonders what information her original put under a biolock. She realizes that her original mightve used dice to randomize where she went. Holly makes a list of eleven places her original might go, then puts them in an order that feels natural. Since seven is the most commonly rolled number, she looked at six and seven, which said to get a hotel room and to change her name. She writes down a list of possible fake names she might use, then sees that her nanites are depleting again. She heads to the renewal station, deciding that Skyler could look up some of the fake name ideas.

;Summary
The system places a call to Skyler when Holly enters the renewal station, and he is slow to reply due to the late hour. She gives him the list of fake names, and asks him to check hotel registries. He tells her that PR's that shift to working things out on paper statistically have a higher success rate. She realizes that her original could've looked up her name in the hotel registries too, and Skyler books her a room in a hotel with a fake name. The hotel is pubic property, so Skyler can keep an eye on her. After he hangs up, Holly looks up another one of Jonathan's speeches on the psychology of checkouts. He talks about rising suicide rates, saying that many people stop finding meaning and purpose in life. He shows an interview with an old woman named Jane Doe, and Holly recognizes her from the checkout slums. Jane says that she took up smoking because she liked the danger and risk of it. Holly wants to know how she knew Jonathan, and decides she needs to go to the checkout slums to meet with her.
