On July 2, 2021, Bon­nie awak­ens in a cell with­in the base­ment of the seem­ing­ly respectable Pro­fes­sors Har­ris’s Vic­to­ri­an home, grap­pling with thirst and a headache but unaware of the grim exper­i­ments con­duct­ed by her cap­tors, Rod­ney and Emi­ly Har­ris. Unlike pre­vi­ous vic­tims, Jorge Cas­tro, Cary Dressler, Ellen, and Pete, who suf­fered from ket­a­mine and Val­i­um-induced hang­overs, Bon­nie is obliv­i­ous to the Har­ris’s sin­is­ter uti­liza­tion of their cap­tives, aimed at pro­long­ing their vital­i­ty through the con­sump­tion of human liv­ers. The Har­ris’s metic­u­lous yet macabre prac­tices include avoid­ing pigs’ liv­er due to pri­on risks and opt­ing for calf’s liv­er to mim­ic human liv­er ben­e­fits.

Bon­nie, impris­oned and mon­i­tored, con­tem­plates her ear­ring as a poten­tial tool for escape, reflect­ing on the com­fort it pro­vides amidst her dire sit­u­a­tion. As a pris­on­er antic­i­pat­ed to endure, she dis­cov­ers sub­tle changes in her cap­tiv­i­ty con­di­tions, such as the brand of water allo­cat­ed to her, insights into her cap­tors’ pref­er­ences and pecu­liar­i­ties.

Attempt­ing to ratio­nal­ize her abduc­tion, Bon­nie dis­sects pos­si­ble motives, rul­ing out sex­u­al­i­ty due to the Har­ris’s age, and leans towards bizarre exper­i­men­ta­tion, some­thing Rod­ney has a rep­u­ta­tion for in aca­d­e­m­ic cir­cles. Her thoughts shift to who might notice her absence, but doubts sur­face due to cur­rent per­son­al estrange­ments and soci­etal dis­rup­tions caused by COVID-19.

When Rod­ney Har­ris enters the base­ment to deliv­er food, reflect­ing his and Emi­ly’s declin­ing health and the decreas­ing effi­ca­cy of their can­ni­bal­is­tic reg­i­men, Bon­nie con­fronts him seek­ing answers but receives none, as Rod­ney adheres to Emi­ly’s advice of silence towards their ‘live­stock.’ The sight of her cap­tor’s bruise, a result of their strug­gle dur­ing her cap­ture, ignites a mix of emo­tions in Bon­nie, from tri­umph to anger.

Endur­ing her grim sit­u­a­tion, Bon­nie finds solace in the small acts of rebel­lion and moments of joy, such as chal­leng­ing Rod­ney or savor­ing Ka’Chava despite the lack of a spoon. Her resilience shines as she clings to her iden­ti­ty and human­i­ty amidst the hor­rors of her cap­tiv­i­ty, sig­nal­ing her unwa­ver­ing spir­it and deter­mi­na­tion to sur­vive.
