Mary and Adam chatted through most of the night, for neither one had met another artificially created human before. Adam was very selective about which information he chose to share with her. The woman's benevolent spirit caused Adam to feel more ashamed of his sins, but also to have new hope. He abstained from committing suicide, because she was his Eve. He would now live a better life, but would not risk losing her by telling her of his previous atrocities.

Adam's affection was recprocated. She always felt out of place, even with her family, but this man was one of her race. Adam was a wonderful person. He chopped wood to help a poverty-stricken family. He saved a girl from drowning. He even tried to reconcile with Victor Frankenstein. Her capabilities usually far exceeded those around her,but this man may be her equal.

They planned to travel to Mary's home. Her family's reception of Adam would be much more pleasant than what Adam usually experienced. Her father's work exposed the Reams to many of the anomalies of the world, including herself. Maybe George could help the creature to appear more human, which would create limitless oppurtunties for the being so used to rejection.
