Three Times Lucky Chapters 22-29 Summary & Analysis

Chapter 22 Summary: “A Town Full of Nobodies”

Content Warning: This section of the guide includes discussion of death, physical abuse, and addiction.

Dale wakes Mo up with a tomato sandwich and tells her that his mother is on her way to see a lawyer about getting his father out of the house. Deputy Marla arrives unannounced, claiming to be there to supervise the kids. She asks Mo if she knows where the Colonel may have hidden money, but Mo has no knowledge of it. Marla also seems overly sympathetic toward Mo. Mo and Dale head outside to work on chores, and Dale mentions how he found it strange that Marla was playing on Mo’s painful backstory; he says he doesn’t trust her. Mo doesn’t see Marla as a threat and tells Dale so. Later, Skeeter arrives to tell Mo that she checked the serial number on Mr. Jesse’s donation and found out that it was money involved in a heist committed by Slate. Skeeter also secretly checked Mo’s own $5 bill that the Colonel gave her, which turned out to be fine.

Dale gets upset with Mo for not telling him that she suspected that the Colonel might have been in on the heist, and Mo apologizes for not filling him in.
