Stay with F. Alexander

Alex, injured and desperate, stumbles to the cottage HOME, where F. Alexander, the writer he and his gang attacked, now lives alone. F. Alexander does not recognize Alex and takes him in, offering him food, a bath, and shelter. Alex tells him about the Ludovico Technique, and F. Alexander is horrified. He sees Alex as a victim of the state and decides to use him as a symbol in his political campaign against the government. Alex is grateful for the kindness but is also aware of the danger: F. Alexander is the man whose wife he raped and whose manuscript he destroyed. The stay is a temporary refuge, but it is built on a lie.
