| − | Stubbs is waiting with [[Theresa Cullen]] when [[Bernard Lowe]] arrives, summoned by her, in the [[Control Room]]. She tells Stubbs to check on some unscheduled activity in [[Sub-Level B83]], "Cold Storage", and he says he'll take a security detail. Bernard's a little condescending about Stubbs' plans for and armed details and he's a little condescending in return, but there doesn't seem to be any bad feeling between the men. He and Bernard accompany an armed security detail to the sub-level. It's partially flooded. They walk through the level, down the silent escalators and enter the Cold Storage Hall, a large, damp, area full of [[Hosts]], standing quietly in rows. At the back of the hall they find someone in a room, and Bernard stops Ashley when he goes to draw his weapon. He points out that one of the people in the back room is [[Robert Ford]], the Park Director. Ashley hangs back while Bernard goes to speak to him |

While he's questioning her, Dolores tells him that she's terrified - without showing any emotion. He tells her that there's nothing to be frightened of and asks if her father has ever questioned the nature of his reality. Dolores makes excuses for her father, saying that he was scared, not thinking right. He asks her about the picture, she says that it didn't look like anything to her. |

A group of [[Ghost Nation]] Hosts appear from the trees, and Stubbs tells them to cease all motor functions. They ignore the command and continue advancing on him.

After Grace breaks free from their captors, Stubbs is subdued and a knife is placed on his throat. The wielder, [[Akecheta]], whispers in his ear (in English, whereas they had previously only spoke in Lakota), "You live only as long as the last person who remembers you."
