Bear Chapters 25-43 Summary & Analysis

Chapter 25 Summary

At home, the sisters try to wash the capsaicin (a key ingredient in bear spray) off their bodies and faces. Elena demands to know why Sam used the spray, and Sam insists that Elena stop luring the bear with food. Elena takes the car keys, saying that she plans to sleep at Kristine’s house. Sam counters that their mother needs her, so Elena says that she’ll return later in the night.

Chapter 26 Summary

Sam eats dinner alone, feeling unsettled. Later, she spots someone walking and runs outside: It’s Danny, walking his dog. She tells him that the bear was near their home again, and Danny offers to lend his dog to Sam to deter the bear. Their talk turns to Elena, and Sam confesses that she’s fearful of Elena walking to and from work. Danny reassures her that things will be okay.

Chapter 27 Summary

Just before three o’clock the next morning, Elena wakes Sam: Their mother has died.
