In our discussion of Chapters 10-15 of DADES, Coach Bart and Mr. Fernando discuss the continual forward momentum of the narrative toward the eventuality that is the conclusion of whether or not Androids dream of electric sheep, or to be more direct, whether Androids are human or just human-adjacent. We meet new characters that help us see the humanity in Rick and John, but also in characters like Pris and Rachel. We also learn about the importance of Officer Resch in Rick's character Arc, and Roy's contradictory existence with John in the apartment. Finally, we see Rick's connection to Mercerism and the eventuality of shared consciousness in empathy.
