Part 8/9:
Determined and filled with a sense of purpose, Darwin sets off toward his mother's bunker. He cleverly avoids detection by the drones, reaching the familiar iron door that has long separated them. In a tense moment of deception, he convinces the authorities that he has been inside the bunker all along, securing permission to see his mother.
Inside, Darwin's reunion is bittersweet as he discovers the depths of his mother’s seclusion. A haunting silence fills the air as she stares at the son she thought she had lost. After hearing about his exploits in the years apart, he abruptly announces his intention to leave. Yet he softens the parting bits by sharing that he has reached the 'paradise level' in a game he once played, leaving her with lingering thoughts of hope for a brighter future.
