In The Aerial, the Rat Man and his henchmen storm into the station, stopping short Tomás' transmission. Ana's father and the Rat Man fight over a gun and stumble into a secret room in the station that reveals The Aerial's director, a young girl fitted inside a glass orb that oversees the production of the drugged food that keeps citizens under Mr. TV's control. The gun goes off and kills The Aerial's director, who turns into an old woman after dying, and Ana knocks down the Rat Man. Back at the lab, Tomás' transmission sends Dr. Y into a choking fit and is finished off by Mr. TV.
