Stolen Sections 101-105 Summary

Section Break 101

Reporters are now involved with this whole thing, which makes Gemma sick. Luckily, her parents have volunteered to referee the news media.
While her parents are at a press conference one day, Gemma wanders through the hospital, disturbed by the fact that people are staring at her and seem to know who she is.
She tries to go outside, but a nurse takes her by the arm and tells her she hasn't been discharged yet.

Gemma's mom returns later with a pile of news clippings about Gemma's disappearance. Looking at them is surreal, but Gemma seems most concerned with the fact that she doesn't like the photo her parents gave the media.
One of the articles is about Ty's arraignment. There's a courtroom drawing of him, and the article says he entered a plea of not guilty.
Gemma's mom says that the plea clearly indicates that Ty is mentally unstable; there's a mountain of evidence against him proving that he took Gemma.
Her mom asks if she wants to go back to London before the trial to see her friends and regroup, but Gemma says she just wants it to be over.

The plan is for Gemma and her parents to go back to London to prepare for Ty's trial.
They change planes in Perth, where Ty is being held. On the way home, Gemma looks down from the air at the Australian landscape and realizes it's identical to Ty's paintings.
She realizes that this has been the purpose of all his art—to show what the land looks like from a bird's eye view.

Apparently, someone leaked to the press that the family had to switch from the domestic to international terminal, and reporters are waiting. Gemma freaks out, and her mom ends up putting her coat over Gemma's head to shield her from the cameras.
Gemma thinks about how Ty has turned her into an international celebrity—someone she never wanted to be.
As they head into the terminal, Gemma panics at the thought of being taken out of Australia, from the same place where Ty is being held. She breaks from her parents and runs to hide in a bathroom and cry.
Gemma tells her mom she can't go back. Her mom tells her she doesn't have to do anything she doesn't want to do.
What's funny about this is that her mom doesn't sound like the person Ty described, the one who was going to send her away to school and abandon her. Could the doctors be right about him manipulating her to think a certain way?

Gemma's family gets a temporary apartment in the city. When they arrive, Gemma has a fit and starts smashing everything, including a lamp and a vase.
She asks her parents if they were ever going to move away and send her to school. Her parents say that was never part of their plan, and in that moment, Gemma hates Ty for telling her that, for filling her head with confusing things.
But, there's something else that doesn't make sense: All Gemma really wants is for Ty to be there with her. She wants his smell and his body. She knows she isn't supposed to, but she does.
Her mother tries to tell her it's okay, but Gemma refuses to listen to her. She throws a fan against the wall.
