The doctor tells him that the inflammation of his wisdom teeth has gotten worse and that he must have them removed. He is relieved when he hears that his mother is calling his name. He believes that fate has a plan for him and that the two of them are like two floating ships in the vastness of the ocean. One day, a storm strikes, and their course diverges. He notices that she is not looking so good and that she has big boobs. She wants to know why he is eating so much, and he tells her that he eats in front of other boys. She tells him he looks like a "bright star" and that neither of them wants to end their ambiguity.
