In several scenes, kentuki dwellers decide to disconnect from the kentukis they have been controlling. Once a kentuki is disconnected, whether by choice or because its battery runs out, the connection can never be made again.
I am entering these as one scene, as the actions taken (and thus the verbs logged) are the same, although the feelings and circumstances are quite different.
Grigor did not give the tablet connected to the kidnapped girl to the police, because he worried that it would incriminate him. Instead he gave the police a disconnected tablet and said the battery had run out. The girl took the kentuki that Grigor and Nikolina have used home to her family in Venezuela, and when Grigor connects to the kentuki and sees her with her family, at first he is happy. However, he soon learns that the girl's father plans to sell her again, and he realises she is not safe. He feels that the situation is too challenging, and disconnects the kentuki.
Emilia, an elderly woman living in Lima, has had a close relationship to Eva, a young woman living in Erfurt. However, Emilia is concerned about Eva's relationship to Klaus, a football player she has managed to identify and called on the phone. When Emilia herself gets a kentuki, the dweller in her kentuki calls Klaus and sends him photos of Emilia in her underwear. He shows Eva, and Eva calls Emilia, making fun of her "puritan" disapproval of Klaus, and of Emilia's underwear. Emilia, who has been very emotionally invested in her relationship with Eva, feels so betrayed that she disconnects from the kentuki at Eva's house, and puts the kentuki in her own house under running water so as to destroy it.
In a short vignette, a mother buys a kentuki for her young children, but when they activate it, it screams and screams and tries to attack the children. The mother destroys it.
In another short vignette, a dweller connects to a kentuki that is being thrown around a crowd of ravers at a nightclub in Hong Kong. The dweller feels ecstatic, until the kentuki falls to the floor and is crushed, severing the connection.
