Lain lies exhausted in her room to find herself all wrapped in electrical cord. After a really long and complicated memory flashback, seen throughout the series, Eiri appears to congratulate her for having succeeded in downloading her NAVI in her own brain to see and hear all that is happening, but warns her about her "hardware capacity" and that she is merely a sentient and autonomous software computer program with a physical human body. Lain later appears to Alice in her room to make things right with her again concerning the false rumors. Lain declares that anything is possible now, as devices are no longer needed anymore to enter the Wired. The next day, nobody seems to remember the rumored incidents and Lain smiles at Alice's complicity.
