Chapter 16 Summary: “016”

Content Warning: This section of the guide includes discussion of sexual content, graphic violence, and death.

Mickey7 wakes up with Cat in her bed, though nothing sexual happened between them. She thanks Mickey for staying with her as she adjusts to life without Gillian. Cat has a delayed start for her security duties that day, and Mickey8 is covering Mickey’s gardening duties, so Cat and Mickey7 go to the cafeteria and share a meal. 

Cat asks Mickey7 why he became an Expendable; Mickey7 does not tell her about his debt to Blank but corrects her assumption that he is a conscripted criminal. She leaves for work, telling Mickey7 to ping her later to hang out. Mickey7 stays in the cafeteria, researching the history of Expendables and the ethical debate around them. 

He goes back to his room and rests until Mickey8 gets back. Mickey8, who ran into Cat, asks Mickey7 if he’s cheating on Nasha. Mickey7 says he’s not. He tells Mickey7 that Cat is suspicious now because his wrist wasn’t bruised like Mickey7’s. Mickey7 is annoyed that he has to deal with Cat’s suspicion now.
