Cady and Granddad take a trip to Edgartown. They run into the family lawyer, Richard Thatcher. Granddad tells Cady he has taken care of her in his will.
Cady has another memory of summer fifteen. She gets into an argument with Granddad over the ivory goods he had gotten Tipper in China. She objects because ivory is illegal. She sees her grandfather as privileged, as someone "who didn't care who got hurt, so long as his wife had the cute statues she wanted to display in her summerhouses" (111). Cady urges Granddad to sell the ivory and give the money to charity. He gets angry.
Cady hangs out with the Liars at Cuddledown. Gat suggests they "act like friends and forget what happened" (114). But Cady wants to remember. She wants to hold Gat and never let go. She convinces herself to be normal for now and not make a fuss. She gives Gat some fudge and is joyful when he loves it.
