Daunis tells her mother that she is going to a geology seminar at Michigan Tech. She then tells her aunt that she’s going on a weekend trip with Jamie. Both are lies, and Daunis feels conflicted, but she also knows this is what she has to do in order to be helpful. Amid the lies, Daunis struggles with the idea of going to Lake State without Lily. On the Saturday drive up to Marquette, Jamie tells Daunis that Levi and all the hockey guys know about their romantic weekend, and that Levi is happy for them. Jamie then tells Daunis about the history of meth and its legal use to treat asthma. During WWII, soldiers were given meth to help them stay awake longer and sharpen their senses. While Jamie informs Daunis, she is having her own internal monologue about how meth is destroying her community.
Daunis is grateful to be in the lab, even if it is to make meth, as science is a world that is both comforting and familiar to her. Daunis questions Jamie about the group hallucination that the hockey team from Minnesota had in which they all experienced little men coming after them.
