In the prison, Isaac and his cellmates learn that Ramin’s mother and Muhammad’s daughter have been executed. The mood is somber, but Ramin is still defiant, while Muhammad is fatalistic.

Mehdi’s foot has turned completely black, and he is clearly going to die without treatment. Isaac appeals to Hossein, the slightly more sympathetic guard, for help. The guard at first refuses, but then says he will see what he can do. Later, Isaac holds Ramin as he cries for his dead mother. Two guards come and lift Mehdi onto a stretcher as he cries for his father. A list of names is read out, including Isaac and Ramin. They are dragged downstairs to join a group of men, including Vartan. The group is divided; Isaac and two other men are left behind while the others are escorted out. Isaac is put into a solitary cell. He hears gunshots and knows that Ramin and Vartan are dead.
