Peter is eager to begin playing in the snow on the class’s free day, but Mr. Terupt reminds him that they’re spending the morning on indoor games before heading outside. The boys play Scattergories with Mr. Terupt, and Peter confuses Luke when he refers to girls as “babes.” Peter’s narrative ends with, “Mr. T’s the best, I thought. That was the last time I got to hang out with him” (122). Before more detail is offered, Luke’s furious train of thought takes over the narrative: “Peter thought he was so smart all of a sudden. He won a homework pass off a lucky guess and he confused me in Scattergories. Big deal. I resolved (dollar word) to get him” (123). The narrative shifts quickly to Jeffrey’s voice as he reflects on the Scattergories game. Jeffrey is increasingly annoyed with Peter and reveals that he has a surprise for him once they’re outside. Jeffrey’s narrative also ends with a warning: “It woulda been better if I never got involved. If I just stayed hating school, none of this woulda happened” (124).
