If the experiment with the chicken works, then it will be the turn of the entire human race to be dematerialised, and Chief Colby will become the all-powerful sovereign of the Web. Gino though, manages to escape from Colby's grasp and, reduced to a pile of digital dust, flees into the endless maze of the Web.
