- It's weeks later, and Cassie and Evan have been preparing for their journey. They leave tonight.
- Cassie's packing Sammy's stuffed bear into her bag. Evan says he thought it was her bear at first, when he saw her in the woods.
- Cassie says, essentially: "Uh, when did you see me in the woods?" She doesn't believe his answer, and she says so.
- Now Cassie's in the bathroom having her G.I. Jane haircut moment. When Evan asks what she's doing, she says she's "symbolically cutting her hair." LOL.
- Cassie notices that she looks much younger with short hair. She hopes it'll be enough to get her on a school bus like the one that took Sammy.
- Meanwhile, Evan has decided to burn down his house to create a diversion. Okay.
