[[Trish continues her narration, picking up with events following the time she passed out while listening to Ki's explanations. We see Ki describing Emperor Nicholas the Puissant shooting her own alternate self.]]
Trish: [narrating] "When I came to, Ki gave me what must have been an abbreviated version of her story: Rescuing her fiance from 'himself,' watching 'herself' be murdered, alien invasions..."

[[We see tiny, blocky nanobots attacking blood cells.]]
Trish: [narrating] "It seemed impossible to believe, but it actually fit with Doctor Aki's explanation of my injuries: Tiny robots rewriting my DNA and unraveling my body so there wouldn't be a trace..."

[[Trish remembers facing an apologetic Ki, who is reaching out to her with her hand on her shoulder.]]
Trish: [narrating] "Then Ki apologized to me. She felt responsible for what happened to me, leading me to that apartment to be shot. She said I was an innocent victim, and she owed me a chance to reclaim my life."

[[Trish remembers looking in the folder that Ki gave her as Ki points to a couple of items clipped to one of the pages.]]
Trish: [narrating] "I tried to say I couldn't blame her but she insisted, giving me my identity documents and a check for a sizable amount. She also wanted to make me an offer to get me back on my feet."
