After he succeeds in evading his pursuers, he comes upon a town where the people appear to be frozen and he thinks this is due to his wish, until he hears a plane. He goes outside to look at the plane and notices a sign reading 'atom city' and recalls reading an article in the paper about a mock city constructed by scientists in order to gauge the devastation of the atom bomb and realizes that the people he saw must be dummies. He looks up at the plane, and sees a small object drop from the bombbay doors.
