It's been a while since we've heard from the narrator, but now he's back. He's still moping about how much he hates his sister, who always does the dishes. He tells her that she's too close to him, and that he smells like a girl. He also tells her to stop using the "smell too sweet" thing, which reminds him of the smell he used to have when he was younger. The narrator then goes on to tell her that if she keeps her grades up, she'll be able to get a full-tuition scholarship to a school of her choice. She's so excited, in fact, that she starts to cry. She tells the narrator that she fought with a friend, and her grades went down. She asks the narrator to help her, and the narrator promises to do so.
