2037: The Genesis group invites Zhen to join them as a pilot on their Mars adventure.
One evening, Zhen is contacted by a founding father from the Genesis meeting. He tells her that a secret mission to Mars is about to launch, and that she has been selected as a candidate pilot for the first Mars colony. Apparently they have been following her impressive career for a while, and her support for their belief in digital life is a strong point in her favor. She is incredibly excited by the proposal; it is beyond her wildest dreams! However, there is a big catch; Kurt is not invited. He is too old-fashioned and does not fit their criteria. She makes a tough decision and decides to leave the moon base for the Mars mission. She tells Kurt that she will be gone a while, that she still loves him, and that she hopes they will be reunited in the near future. She is sworn to secrecy and cannot tell him any more. There is a tearful goodbye.
