Albertine breaks into Chardalot's room and calls Toby to warn him that they have to leave as she believes that Peri has been killed, unwittingly allowing the hidden Chardalot to learn which room Toby is in. She stabs Chardalot several times when he reveals himself and cuts the line with his [[tooth|teeth]], but he is unharmed and manages to tie her up before going to Toby's room where he threatens the life of Miss Bultitude. Toby promises to give him anything that he wants in return for help restoring the world to one run by pigs as he has seen in a [[film]], something which Chardalot dismisses as a [[fantasy]]. He tells Toby that he grew him in a [[bell jar]] in [[Vienna]] as part of an experiment to augment an [[animal]]'s intellect to the level of a human, but Toby escaped to England in a [[cattle truck]]. | Albertine breaks into Chardalot's room and calls Toby to warn him that they have to leave as she believes that Peri has been killed, unwittingly allowing the hidden Chardalot to learn which room Toby is in.

They are too late to stop Chardalot from taking Toby and Miss Bultitude, but Albertine uses an advanced [[telescope]] in Toby's possession to spot them heading for the [[train]] to [[Brussels]]. As they drive after the train, Peri reads in Chardalot's diary about experiments on pigs named Toby and Charlie, the latter of whom is described as more [[violence|violent]], and notices that the dates are from fifty years ago despite Chardalot looking like he is in his forties. A screen lights up on the [[bookmark]] and shows the presence of a time machine in Brussels. | ||
