She tells them how the young Ainu girl who was taken from her family, served the army of Japan during the war by performing Kabuki plays, how she was raped and bore a child, and how that child was killed on her grave. Kabuki tells the doctor how she met her mother that day she died, but her mother told her to go back as a ghost, and that she did. she haunted the airwaves as Kabuki. They continue to pay the ink blot game until they come across a defective card that looks like a face with scars down the left side, and then Kabuki stops cooperating. The guards bring her back to her cell, and one takes it upon himself to try and take advantage of Kabuki. She does not react kindly to this and took the guard by surpass, as they did not know she had been working out and over came the drugs that they had been giving her in her food.
