Finch
- Finch is in the gym talking to his pal Charlie. Charlie wants to know if he's "hit that," meaning had sex with Violet. What a charmer.
- Back in the locker room, Roamer confronts Finch. He's still mad about that almost-drowning thing.
- Roamer beats on Finch a lot. Finch doesn't fight back. He doesn't want to get expelled.
- The coach interrupts and marches off with Roamer, who's in trouble.
- Back at his locker, Finch finds his rock—the one he gave to Violet earlier. She picked the lock and left it for him, it seems.
- The chapter concludes as he walks away chatting with Brenda. He's thinking about Violet the whole time.
