In this chapter, Jim continues his argument with Nelly. He accuses her of being a liar and of digging up his past. He also accuses Nelly of being too mean to him and of not letting him just let the past go. He asks Nelly if she is asking him to marry her or something, and she replies that she may not be his type. Jim feels that Nelly is asking for too much of him and that he is not the type for her.
