Together they hatch a radical plan they believe will save the human race from the horrific ramifications of over-population. Fast forward to 1979 and Carvel is beginning to lose his mind, tormented by his love for his daughter Jessica and his guilt over what he has done to his son Pietre. He has made an adjustment to Janus and is refusing to release it to Milner.
