don reacts against rogi's influence upon his children, but cannot overcome denis's attachment to his uncle. rogi leaves for a job as a hotel manager, where denis can visit during the holidays. rogi worries about denis's education, as his local school is not challenging, but don does not see education as something to invest in for his children - especially for denis. rogi learns of a jesuit monastic school and manages to get don to allow him to send denis there. this leads to denis attending dartmouth college due to a new program for "special students". he becomes prominent in many fields, particularly psychology and the understanding of "metapsychic" abilities, eventually becoming the "grandfather of metapsychology". subsequent research yields results in many places in the world and denis organizes yearly meetings within the secret metapsychic community.
