In this chapter, Ari wakes up to find her Minder alarm going off and learns that Nelly, her usual caretaker, is in the hospital receiving tape.

Ari struggles with the seriousness of her new role as their Supervisor, navigating her feelings of responsibility, fear, and uncertainty while trying to integrate the two new azi into her daily life.
