On Saturday, Trent returns to the basketball program. Noah has joined, so Annie can work with a different buddy, but both Annie and Trent agree to stay partners. They do well in the activities.

Doug meets up with them after the lesson, and the brothers go get food. Trent realizes that Doug is supposed to be at their dad’s but isn’t—he has his own issues with their dad. They talk about Annie, and Doug admits that he became close to her because he feels guilty about what happened with Jared. Doug was the one who encouraged Trent to play hockey that day. Trent is surprised that Doug feels guilty too and reassures him that it wasn’t his fault.

At home, Trent and Aaron talk about Aaron’s trigonometry test. Aaron doesn’t want to fail and go to summer school because that means he can’t work, and he needs to work to pay for college. Trent diffuses the tension by making a joke.

At lunch on Monday, Fallon is listless again. Trent tells her a joke, and she cracks a smile. Later, Trent tells Ms. Emerson that he’s worried that Fallon will be mad at him forever. Ms. Emerson advises him to “speak truths” when he speaks.
