About

Fifty-eight. On days the week of terminal black. Rebuilt the compound's feed pump on the fifth day with two spanners, made Jasleen Kaur's splint out of cable tray, and spent the last four hours of the eight days working a bar on the wrong side of a bolted plate. He opens with a number and it is a reproach he aims at himself: "Two hundred and six. That's how many times we keyed that handset... Out of two hundred and six." He knew the wall amplifier was dead by the Sunday, said on the fourth day that they were shouting into a bucket, and states in front of a full vestibule that continuing was Sylva Haugen's and not his and that he would have stopped.

Knows why the wall amplifier is dead: somebody took its breaker for something in 2346 and he has been putting it on a list for three years.
