Zinzi arrives home to wolf whistles from D’Nice and his friends. She realizes why when she finds a printout tacked to her door: It’s a post by Gio on the Mach blog, entitled “Was It Good for Zoo?” Gio’s post claims that he’s having sex with Zinzi; he has attached revenge porn photos of her from five years ago along with some photos that Dave took at Biko Bar. He claims that Sloth shivers and yowls nearby when Zinzi climaxes during sex, calling their relationship a “pseudo-bestiality threesome” (263).

Enraged, Zinzi heads to Benoît’s apartment. When she finds him upset, she offers to give him money to help with his trip. She realizes that he hasn’t seen Gio’s post, but he has found her phishing emails. Zinzi says she has debts to pay, and Benôit responds, “We all have debts to pay! […] All of us here” (265). He tells Zinzi that Felipe, the boy Zinzi created for the Eloria phishing email, reminds him of someone.

When Benoît was a child in the Congo, the Lord’s Resistance Army kidnapped him and made him a child soldier. Benôit was forced to kill his friend, a boy much like Felipe. He didn’t receive his Mongoose until 11 years later, when the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FLDR) attacked his wife and children en route to his father-in-law’s funeral.
