How It All Goes Down
- As Lena and Alex trek through the Wilds, Lena is afraid that Alex will regret bringing her.
- They finally make it to a ramshackle little camp in the woods, where Alex has a trailer that he used to live in.
- Inside, they get comfortable with some candles and some Shakespearean sonnets. It's the first time Lena has ever heard poetry, and it "makes [her] feel exhilarated and sad at the same time" (18.75).
- His trailer has a nifty convertible roof, so he peels it back like a sardine can and they watch the stars.
- Shortly before dawn, they sneak back to Portland and Lena returns safely to her own bed.
