In the beginning Jenny told herself that Cutter was crazy. They were all crazy, really, working where they did and seeing and doing what they did, but Cutter had always maintained loudly - and often - that she used to be somebody else.
In the end, seeing the photograph from Cutter's lab, the one of him and somebody who couldn't exist, Jenny forces herself to hold it together, not to cry. She resists the urge to flee home to her parents after she resigns, to re-establish communication with old friends, to hide in her past.
Anything to convince herself that she's real.
