Mr. Lockwood,

I have great news! Franklin and Lowery arrived early this morning. The Jeeps hadn't even stopped before they were already rushing to work. I knew I could count on my boys. Both feel that they will have the program mastered and the nanobots in their control within the hour. Lord, I pray that they are right because time is certainly of the essence.

With the bots stalled, the doctors are treating the symptoms successfully. But nothing can be promised until the bots reverse some of the more serious damage. I've allowed Owen to visit with Wu again, if only to speed the process along. As I sit here beside Maisie, I'm trying not to think about what exactly he's doing. But I won't hold anything against him. Wu nearly killed both of his girls. And for that he deserves nothing but the worst agony. I still stand by what I said last night; Wu belongs in a prison cell with minds much crueler than his. But now I need only focus on positive things, for Maisie's sake above everything else.
