While the events of lunch still remained fairly fresh on his mind, the Once-ler's stomach had chosen to let him know that he hadn't eaten much all day. Rapunzel's healing offer was something to look forward to, at least.
He honestly had not been paying much attention to what room he had awoken in that morning, so he had noticed no difference in which room the nurse led him back to for dinner. What was new was the presence of another man sitting with his head down. The Once-ler guessed the man was his roommate, as was mentioned on the intercom.
He sat down at his own desk and stared at the food in front of him. He was hungry, but at the same time he had no desire to eat at all. The smell of food proved to be too much, and his stomach gave a very audible growl. Hunger was winning out.
The Once-ler started cutting the chicken provided into very fine slices; if there was anything unpleasant in this food, he was going to find it before putting it into his mouth.
