How It All Goes Down
26 January 1998
- Alex is furious about this last chapter. (We thought they weren't discussing their writing anymore, but oh well.)
- He then says he decided not to give Grandfather the money, because he would never have found what he was looking for.
- It turns out that Grandfather killed himself four days ago, cutting his wrists in the bathtub.
- Alex found him and tried to revive him by punching him in the face, so hard that his Mother though she'd killed him.
- In closing, he says, "I told my father exactly what I thought" (28.20) and that he will not tell Jonathan exactly what he thinks.
- Welp, that was awful.
- On to the next chapter!
