Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Adam sleeps in Nattie’s room because Hunter’s music is too loud for him to sleep in his own room. He awakes to find Nattie lining up her stuffed animals. She’s organizing them but struggling to decide on an organizational system. She plans to sell them, arguing that she’s too old for them now even though she loves them. Adam longs to tell Nattie that the toys have real feelings or that they represent her life, but he doesn’t, given the family’s dire situation. Nattie gets rid of her stuffies, and Adam sketches a picture of the toys arranged alphabetically by their names.
Adam receives a notice that the vuvv are suing him for breach of contract because of his and Chloe’s failed reality show. Mrs. Costello says they need to find a charitable clinic to treat Adam, and she locates one that will be in Boston in a few days. They use almost all their funds for the long bus ride to the clinic, where crowds have been lined up for days; some individuals are freezing to death during their wait. Adam and Mrs. Costello stand in line for four hours before the clinic announces that they’re done taking patients but will return in one month.
