Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Heather struggles to decide what to do with the Polaroids and how to prove she found them in Sheriff Nillson’s basement. At a loss, she realizes she hasn’t played drums in a long time. She decides to walk to Maureen’s to see how Gloria is doing and see if she’ll let her play in the garage. Worried about Junie, she plans to take her to Claude’s house because she doesn’t know whether her mother can take care of her. She packs some food for Gloria like she’s seen her neighbors do in times of trouble, and she makes her way to the Hansen house.
Before she gets there, Ed stops her while he’s driving by. He takes the food Heather made and asks about Maureen. He also asks if Junie wants to join him for a double date with her and Ant. This catches Heather off-guard, and she replies that her father is the DA. Ed tells her to think about it and drives off. When Heather gets to Mrs. Hansen’s, she notices the house is less cluttered. Gloria tells her that she’s moving and that she has to get out of Pantown. She then states that she really should have left town when she had an affair with Gary Cash.
