Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Miguel and Finn work on the fence and chat about Petey and Amber. After work, Finn rides over to Petey’s house and asks her out on a date. He wants them to be seen for who they are as a couple. Petey is a little hesitant. Finn is afraid Petey will vanish if he doesn’t spend a lot of time with her. Once again, Finn goes over to her house, but this time, he goes during daylight. He wants to interact with her mom, too. When he arrives, Petey and Mel, her mom, are with the bees. Something has disrupted the hive. They’re working on locating the queen bee, something Mel and Petey acknowledge is quite difficult.
Finn spots the queen bee right away because she walks differently than the other bees. Mel, Petey’s mom, seems to like Finn and teases him and Petey. Mel asks Finn to sign Petey’s yearbook, and even though Petey protests, he does. On his way home, the Rude boys mock Finn from their pickup truck. Finn is a little spooked but finds Charlie’s lost chicken. He returns her. When he arrives at Charlie’s house, he finds the lights out and a tall familiar man: Roza’s kidnapper.
