The chapter opens with a conversation between the two girls, who are planning to go to the class reunion that weekend. The girls discuss the fact that their boyfriend is handsome, but they decide that it would be awkward for them to show him off at the reunion. They decide that they will pretend to be together at the party so that they can get to know one another better. The two girls decide that doing housework at home is a better way to spend their time than staying at the school.
