Danny sleeps well, but has a thought in the back of his head that makes him wake up: his mother telling him "Meet your sisters... they will learn how to make you happiest". He wakes up next to Sandy and decides to shower. After he's done, he descends into the courtyard and sees Maria watching over the sleeping Julie. They exchange glances and smile at one another. He notices empty beds, so heads out to search for other sisters. He goes to the balcony and meets Sheila, who looks like a famous star. Sheila tells him that Mommy saved her from the world obsessed with appearances, then takes him inside to show him a special trick she can do - she can control his mind by controlling his heartbeat. Sheila treats Danny like a musical instrument, drawing out sounds of pleasure through her movements.
