Note: Original published in Návrat na planetu Zemi anth 1985 ed Ivo Železný, who thus would have had the manuscript early enough for his German anth the same year. Reprinted only in Novotný's 2018 collected stories.

Synopsis: Amnesiac Robert is chased through countryside by gunmen, gradually recalling that this situation keeps on repeating. Cornered, he realizes the truth and jumps off a bridge: he was a domestic robot made to play laser-tag by bored, uncomprehending children. Two teenagers are impressed by human dignity he managed to reclaim in selfdestruction.
