At school, Stef apologizes to Arthur, who also forgives her. Julia still fumes that people think Stef knows Viviana Vega, but otherwise, preparations for the dance are nearly complete. Stef reveals the poster she drew of hands holding up art supplies. The class is blown away, and Stef feels smug that “even Julia and Maddie look impressed” (123).
Stef’s dad attends the city council meeting that night. He asks if Stef will come read his speech for him, but scared and unwilling, Stef refuses, saying, “I just want to go home” (127). Stef calls Amanda to discuss the Viviana Vega situation, but before they can make a plan, Stef’s mom calls her away to watch the meeting on TV.
The meeting starts with people complaining about how food trucks are unsanitary and stealing other food jobs. Hearing the complaints makes Stef angry people are tearing down Tía Perla, and she thinks, “I can’t believe I’m not there to stick up for her” (131). She insists she and her mom need to go to the meeting to support her dad.
