Content Warning: This section of the guide contains descriptions of sexual assault, rape, bullying, and substance abuse.

Inside, Kevin gives Maya two drinks. Ana stops drinking after one shot. She knows that she will never fit into this scene.

Benji walks across the lake into another neighborhood. He steals a moped and drives toward the town of Hed. His sister, Katia, is working in a bar called The Barn when the bouncer tells her that Benji is there. Katia knows that he only comes to see her when he is feeling “bruised” (166).

Amat and Bobo go into the garden and fire pucks at the goal. They know they are not good at parties. Bobo asks how Amat got so fast and apologizes for being a bully. He says that if he can’t improve his speed by autumn he won’t be able to make the team. Amat tells him that today, for the first time, hockey felt like work and he doesn’t know what to make of that.

Benji gets high with the bass player from the band that is playing at The Barn. He says that he will be back next Sunday and would like to get to know Benji better.
