Two people came out again into the courtyard, where Michael stood motionless, his body still.
Naturally, he couldn't move because his power had been shut off.
Ellen removed the chip to check it again, which would take time, mostly in another small room of hers.
She had repurposed a room to serve as a mini laboratory, and seeing her get busy again, Ruffy couldn't stay long.

It wouldn't be long before Lucy and the others returned, and the cameras would be there no matter what.
No matter how they tried to avoid it, Ruffy would inadvertently be caught on camera.
Ruffy didn't make it difficult for them and simply left the courtyard.
It wasn't long before the figures of Lucy and Clyde appeared on the hillside.
It was almost noon, and they were coming home for lunch.
