{{spoiler}}

On the night of joining the Crims, a [[clique]] for Pretties who played lots of tricks in their Ugly days, Tally sees Croy, a Smokey, who said he had something to give her. He said that he hid the package at "Valentino 317", which isn't a real room at Valentino Mansion. The next day, she meets Zane for breakfast, they talk but don't each much, and then they kissmake out. Then she tells him her encounter with Croy and where her "package" was supposed to be. He decides to come along with her to get the package, so they leave their interface rings behind. At Valentino Mansion, they go up to the roof, and climb a large antennae to get a key to open the door to Valentino 317, which they found.

She discovers that it is a note she wrote to herself back when she was an Ugly. The note was meant for her to read when she was a Pretty and explained that she had given her consent to test a cure for the lesions built into an Ugly during their surgery to become a Pretty. The lesions were meant for Pretties to be dumb. It also made them forget a lot of things about their past. The letter came with a cure which was two pills to take. Because the note said that the cure was "untested" and "brain-dead is bad", she is afraid and the Specials are coming. Zane rushes her to take the pills because if she doesn't the Specials might get them out of her. He says if she won't than he will. Then they take them together hoping for the best.
