Perfect Chapter 19 Summary

Sean

  • Sean tells us he's been masturbating since he was eleven, he used to do it every morning, and it was easy before steroids. Thanks for the TMI, Sean.
  • He's been thinking about testing the Viagra solo, but he doesn't want to waste a pill—he wants to save it for Cara.
  • Cara's got a lot going on, what with homework and prom committee and the spring musical and all. She did promise to come to his baseball game today, though.
  • When he gets to the field, he notices that there are scouts in the bleachers, who have radar guns to test pitching speed.
  • Also in the bleachers: Cara and Dani. He's got a lot of people to impress today.
  • When he gets up to bat, he gets a strike on the first pitch, but hits a short fly on the second; he gets to first base on an error.
  • Bobby's up next. He hits a triple, and Sean scores the second run of the game for the Grizzlies.
  • It's not his best game, and he's distracted by Cara and Dani, but when Cara smiles at him, he hits a grand slam.
  • They win the game, and everyone congratulates him for being a hero. Cara, however, leaves as soon as the game is over, and the scouts do, too.
  • Uncle Jeff finds him and says one of the scouts is an old friend from Louisville, and they're very interested, although he knows Sean has his heart set on Stanford.
  • Sean says he'll talk to them, although he knows he'll get into Stanford, too.
  • He calls Cara, and she picks up right away. He's surprised when she agrees to meet him.
