The chapter opens with a description of the family's big brother, who is now living with them. The narrator explains that the big brother was his idol, and that he used to follow him around all the time. A few years later, however, the family got into an accident. The chairman saved only the oldest son, but the other son was born out of "love" . This explains the "heavy atmosphere" in the house, the narrator explains. He says that he's heard that reality is more dramatic than "tv shows" , so the second son has been the only "peculiarone" since the accident. He tells the story of a baby bird that fell over the roof. The cuckoo must have pushed it off, he says, because it's "just a natural instinct" for survival. He asks the narrator if she thinks she has the right to interpret that fact that she knows his beloved, even though she's just trying her best to understand him. She replies that she doesn't know him, but that she always wants to talk about things with her whenever she is with the family. She tells the narrator that it was good that they had dinner together, and the narrator is exaggerating. He's basically confirming it. This month's class assignment is to make a family photo album. The assignment deadline is two weeks, and they're supposed to present it to the class.
