=== Chapter 28 ===
Morriumur asks Spensa if he's really worth training, as the current draft of himself might be wiped soon, to which Spensa responds yes, that he is improving rapidly as a pilot. The two continue discussing Morriumur's parents, and Morriumur tells Spensa he wants to show her a park in the city. On their way, Morriumur tells Spensa he overheard her and Hesho's conversation earlier aboard the Weights and Measures and argues that although their are flaws to the Superiority, just as their are in every government, it has provided good lives for millions of beings through the monopolization of cytonic hyperdrives. They finally arrive at the park, where Spensa sees globs of water floating in the air with smaller globs floating around the park, with hundreds of children splashing around and throwing water at each other. Once a clock on a nearby wall reaches a certain point, all the water in the park rains down on the children, leaving them squealing with delight. It is at this point that Spensa lets her guard down for the first time since arriving, realizing the Superiority isn't some grand façade, that its citizens truly are happy, they're just average everyday beings, just like her and the people of Detritus. Spensa tells Morriumur of the stories her grandmother told her from the cadamique, the UrDail holy book, stories of warriors who went off to war and succeeded, but came back different and unable to adapt to the society they had fought so hard to protect. Spensa tells Morriumur the Superiority needs different people like him and her. They head back to the embassy, and Morriumur sees Doomslug and immediately becomes aggressive, telling Spensa she needs to get rid of the taynix. Spensa tells him it is a very similar-looking species, and Morriumur tells her he won't report her. He leaves, and M-Bot tells Spensa she needs to see the news. She turns on a monitor on the wall to a news station that shows an image of Detritus and exclaims that the humans are close to escaping.
