Chapter Summaries & Analyses
The day before Thanksgiving, Mav calls Lisa, who is putting off telling her family about the pregnancy. Mav tells her not to worry, as the whole thing will be over soon. There’s a long pause, and then Lisa tells Mav that she wants to keep the baby. She is determined not to let it ruin her life and will still go to college on an academic scholarship. Mav feels like his life is over. He’s silent for too long, and Lisa angrily hangs up on him.
Ma and Mav drive up to Evergreen Prison with Seven. Pops lights up when he sees his grandson. He holds Seven on his lap as the group makes conversation, which is lighthearted until Ma tells Pops that Mav has some news to share. Squaring his shoulders, Mav tells Pops that Lisa is pregnant. Unlike last time, Pops is angry. He blames Ma for not being home to supervise Mav, while she blames him for being absent. Ma takes Seven to the other side of the room, leaving Mav and Pops alone to talk.
Pops reminds Mav of the meaning of his name and asks why Mav wasn’t thinking when he impregnated Lisa. Mav counters that Pops was stupid to hide drugs in the family home.
