- The next morning, Mr. Avery lays down the law: Wren's moving to Omaha, whether she likes it or not.
- Wren freaks and says that everybody drinks, but her dad reminds her that Cath doesn't, and also tells her Cath has a "very polite" boyfriend.
- Wren asks whom Cath's dating.
- Cath says Levi.
- Their dad says that's not what they're talking about, lays down a little more of the law, goes into his room, and slams the door.
- The next morning, Cath writes—guess what?—fanfiction. Wren's been crying on the phone in the closet, talking to Jandro.
- When she comes out of the closet, Wren starts reading over Cath's shoulder.
- Cath tells Wren she thinks the Mage is going to kill Baz, and Wren says that can't happen. She takes the laptop away from Cath to write a little Simon Snow intervention.
- Wrenegade is back, at least momentarily.
- The next morning, over a disgusting bowl of new Cheese Gravioli, their dad delivers the verdict, a.k.a. compromise: Wren can go back to Lincoln, but she has to come home every weekend.
- They decide Gravioli is inedible, which we knew all along.
