At Pike’s place, Jordan runs into Cole, who was clearly not expecting her to be there. Cole is having sex with Elena Barros, one of his friends. A shattered Jordan backs into the kitchen. Pike arrives and also sees Cole with Elena near the pool. He confronts Cole angrily. Elena leaves, and Jordan begins to cry. She feels abandoned by everybody, including her parents. She asks Pike to go inside so that she can talk to a sheepish Cole. Cole tells Jordan that he has been with Elena since the night of Jordan’s birthday party. He will move in with Elena until Jordan finds a place to stay. Jordan goes back inside and calls her father.

The next morning, Jordan packs her stuff so that she can move into her father’s trailer at Meadow Lakes Park. Pike insists on driving her there. He promises Jordan that he will get her car ready in a few days.

As Pike drives into the run-down Meadow Lakes, he realizes that compared with Jordan, Cole has actually led a privileged life. Jordan grew up in a trailer with a father and stepmother who ignored her. Her father Chip’s trailer is ramshackle; her stepbrother, Ryan, and his friends are hanging outside.
