The next morning, Dr. Rivers comes in to check on Henry, who's been having a rough time. He's not feeling well, and he's worried that he'll have to go home. Rivers asks Henry if he wants to talk to him, and Henry says he'd rather not, since he hasn't spoken to him in a few days. He also tells Rivers that he thinks Henry is having a hard time, and that he wishes he could be with someone else. The two talk about how much they've been hanging out with Henry lately, and how different he seems to be from the person they used to be. Rivers says that the professor isn't the social type, so it's hard for him to be friends with people who just want to hang out with him. He says that's because the professor is a "guy who sets boundaries" that are "difficult to cross" . Rivers then asks why she's suddenly so depressed, and she says that she feels embarrassed because she told Henry she liked him, even though he said she didn't like him. She also says that it seems like the professor wants to move "at a different pace" , but she keeps doing whatever she wants. She complains that he is treating her like a "child," but she can't blame her for being impatient. She says that at their age, they're unlikely to be scouted, so she won't push herself too hard, either.
