While secreted away in her lab, Bonesaw would grow several clones of Gramme for the express purpose of remaking Mannequin. They had none of the original's memories, their personalities were expressly sculpted to recreate the monster that he became. One version was [[Trigger Event|created with his powers]] at a presumably much younger than Alan Gramme originally had been and as such was not a accurate representation of Alan's personality.<ref name="I25 e3">He was muttering to himself, “Wall them in.  Wall myself in.  Wall them in.  Wall myself in.”<br/><br/>“Come on, A.G.,” Bonesaw said.  She reached through the structure and took his hand.  “Out through the door.”<br/><br/>“Not a door.  Trap.  Safest way to ward off attackers.  Used my hair, made a tripwire, tying ends together.  Maximum devastation if intruder breaks perimeter.”<br/><br/>“Through the window, then.  I’ll wall you in.  Promise.”<br/><br/>He nodded.  With excessive care, he climbed on top of the jars that were precariously balanced on one another and slipped out through another aperture in the arrangement, higher up.  He stumbled as he landed.<br/><br/>“This way.  We’ll wall you in.”<br/><br/>He followed obediently.  “Where’s my Catherine?  She’s my…”<br/><br/>“Your mom, silly billy.”  Cognitive dissonance would be bad.  He could lash out.  Not that he was that dangerous, like this.<br/><br/>“I was going to say wife.  And I have two children.  They’re seven and five.  Except I’m…”<br/><br/>“You’re seven.  You’re thinking of your sisters.”<br/><br/>“I’m confused,” he almost mewled the words.  “It hurts, so much of it hurts to think about.  I- I let a lot of people down.  I can feel their disappointment like… like it’s pressing in on me from all sides.  I can’t hide from it and I can’t stop myself from caring.  I-“<br/><br/>“Hush,” she said.  “It all gets better when you wall yourself in, doesn’t it?”<br/><br/>He nodded mutely.<br/><br/>“Walling you in,” she said, as she put him on top of the stand.  A press of the button raised the glass enclosure.  She could see him relax a fraction at that.<br/><br/>A bit of a problem, Bonesaw mused, as the container filled with the nutrient fluid. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/07/16/interlude-25/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 25]]</ref>
