Freddy leaves the Seek-Her feeling frustrated and dismissive. Doodle, who was waiting outside, invites Freddy to stay for coffee, but Freddy declines and leaves. Doodle catches the eye of a man reading at another table on the patio and decides to stay behind to do homework.

Freddy arrives home, and to her surprise, Laura is waiting on the steps of Freddy’s house. They greet each other, and Laura flirtatiously hints at hanging out. Freddy agrees.

In an email to Anna Vice, Freddy’s thoughts are juxtaposed with a panel depicting childish toys and Beanie Baby parts. At school, Laura openly flirts with Freddy, much to the annoyance of Freddy’s friends, particularly Doodle, who appears sad.

Later, Freddy and Laura have sex in Freddy’s room. Laura notices one of Freddy’s unique toy creations, a teddy bear with various toy parts sewn onto it, and dismissively says, “Bye, creepy bear;” the bear responds in a pink speech bubble, unheard by Laura, “Yeah, same to you toots” (88). Laura asks Freddy why Doodle does not have a cell phone, and Freddy remarks drily that Doodle thinks they’re radioactive. The two girls head to the kitchen, where they encounter Freddy’s parents, who are hugging one another.
