Chapter Summaries & Analyses

Chapter 20 Summary: “Professor Jerrod Malcolm, PhD”

Lemonade has been in Willow Creek for a month. Her room is starting to feel more like her own, but she misses the food in San Francisco. Lemonade and Tobin find three messages on their answering machine; one is from Mrs. Dickerson, another is from the boys who keep pranking them, and the third is from someone who claims to be a professor at Idaho State University. He wants to examine the footprint casts that Tobin and Lemonade took. He arrives a few days later and seems amazed by the casts, which contain a midtarsal break. Tobin and Lemonade briefly argue over who was truly responsible for finding the footprints, and the professor asks to take the casts back to his lab for further testing. Charlie and the kids are stunned at the thought of finding Bigfoot evidence.

Chapter 21 Summary: “Tobin’s Dad”

On a slow Sunday, Lemonade and Tobin don’t get any calls. Lemonade thinks about Miss Cotton, her teacher in San Francisco, and how she and her mother had the same infectious smile. Tobin invites Lemonade over to his house for the first time. They have ice cream, and Lemonade sees photographs of Tobin’s dad, Scotty.
