Dayrl has been locked up on DHS island for 2 months now. he has been tortured, abused, and malnourished. For his close friends Jolu and Marcus hope is beginning to fade and they may have to deal with the fact that their friend died because of their cowardly inability to act. Dayrls parents have completely given up hope and begin their new life without him. Back on DHS island Dayrl overhears a prison guard talking about how the national government is about to crack down on DHS island and that all of the prisoners will be killed in an attempt to destroy evidence. Dayrl has many flashbacks to the "good old days" with his father and mother at the parks looking out at DHS island not knowing that in a few short years he would be facing a sense of impending doom. Dayrl figured it out. He must escape.
He begins to acquire small ketchup packets. He then takes ketchup packets, puts them together into a jar and begins concentration them in the sun by adding his own source of urea , a nitrogeous base from urine, and stomach acid. he ends up making a batch so acidic that it eats through the metal bars that hold him captive. At night he makes his escape. in traditional San Francisco escape fasion he makes a boat from inflated rain coats. Word gets out that a prisoner has escaped and the alarm is sounded. Lights from the watch towers are franticly looking around the ocean. they finally fixate on Dayrl. the head DHS agent starts freaking out about what the implications if a prisoner leaked to San Francisco, their whole jig is off. She orders a sharpshooter to take him out. the sharp shooter takes aim, takes the shot and Dayrl is hit, only wounded but hit in the leg. He begins to bleed into the ocean. The salt stings his gushing wound. He begins to notice that his improvided raft is begining to fail. Slowly his raft starts to sink. Fatigued, hypovolimic, and discouraged, he slowly sinks to the bottom of the ocean, his efforts to escape have failed.
