- This chapter's poem is made up of dialogue between Lennie and Bailey, imagining where their mom must be while they are lying in bed.
- Bailey imagines that their mom is thinking of them, but Lennie doesn't believe it.
- In the prose world, Lennie heads downstairs in the morning, and apologizes to Gram that they never got to do Gram's ritual the night before.
- Gram asks Lennie if everything is okay between her and Toby. Gulp.
- Luckily for Lennie, they are interrupted when Joe and Uncle Big come in for breakfast.
- Lennie mentions that she has to go to work early because they're catering a party. Gram is doing flower arrangements for the same party, which leads Lennie to think about how one of Gram's main rules is never to prune or cut her flowers.
- Joe walks Lennie to work. On their walk, he talks about how the two of them should go to Paris—he's really working the whole France thing.
- The idea of leaving her sad life and adventuring with Joe makes Lennie so excited that she tells Joe she feels like she could catapult into the air.
- The duo shares a very cute eye-locking moment, and then an even more momentous kiss.
