Adrian, meanwhile, frees Milan Cathedral from its advertising coverage, triggering other acts of emulation in the rest of the country. Draghenstein takes advantage of the situation to unleash chaos and blame the Watchmaker for the disorders, while the High Commissioner offers Johnny Silver the chance to record a new album and recover his fame, if he agrees to kill Darian.
