The Sun is Also a Star Chapter 121: Daniel Summary

How It All Goes Down

  • Natasha asks Daniel what his most embarrassing moment was, and he says it's obviously the scene with Charlie and his dad that Natasha witnessed earlier. 
  • Daniel thinks everyone should get a family Do-Over card that allows you to evaluate your current family when you're 16 and decide if you want to try again. 
  • NOTE: It might be tough to convince any teenager to stay with their current family. 
  • Daniel doesn't think a lot of people would switch, and Natasha asks if she could give her card to somebody else. He knows she's talking about her dad. 
  • Daniel wonders if he could kick Charlie out of the family instead, and they agree that a family Do-Over card would give people too much power over each other's lives. 
  • "But of course, this is the problem. We already have that power over each other" (316).
