After school, Gabie asks Drew to drive her home in the Mini Cooper. They walk out to the parking lot, and Gabie notices people looking at her in a way that reminds her of a former classmate named Jordan, whose brother committed a mass shooting in downtown Portland the year prior. Gabie wishes she had said something comforting to Jordan before she transferred schools.

As Drew drives, Gabie notices his “cute” grin and endearing mannerisms. Drew explains that he was taught how to drive by his mom’s boyfriend, who forced him to get on I-5 during his first lesson. He admits that he doesn’t know who his father is. When they arrive at Gabie’s home, her parents are already there.

Mrs. Klug greets Drew kindly, but he suspects that she is noticing his worn clothing and writing him off as a bad kid. Gabie’s father, Steve, behaves more coldly toward Drew. Gabie takes Drew up to her room, which is lined with collages and band posters. They bond over their shared love of the band Flea Market Parade.

Gabie admits that she needs to talk to someone about Kayla. Though the authorities seem sure she is dead, Gabie still can’t quite believe it.
