[The episode begins in a dream aboard a moving subway train. It is nighttime and the train lights are on, flickering on and off as though they are old and frail. As the train halts to a stop, the doors open to an unknown dark path towards the night sky filled with dim shooting stars. An unknown silhouette stands up and heads to the door, passing the strange lady that was sitting in the train the entire time.

???: Do realize. There is no clear path to survival, only expediting the inevitable end.
???: Yes. This is the tale of how to spend the last days at the end of life.

???: Before you depart at your stop, tell me... What will you do now?

[The passenger walks out and the train doors close. The figure disappears into the night as the train moves on to their next destination. Meanwhile, the lady from before moves to a different section of the train and sits down, sitting across from another person that sleeps soundly...]
