Quote #10

"Perhaps Arthur had better drive her back to the city. Arthur could see that she gets there safely."

"Gets where?" Eleanor shook her head at them, feeling her lovely heavy hair around her face.

"Gets where?" she asked happily. (9.67-68)

Eleanor is crushed by dissatisfaction here. She has no home amongst her friends and family, and now she's getting the boot from the only physical home she has. Eleanor's come full circle in dissatisfaction (check out our "What's Up With the Ending?" section for more on that).
