Daunis goes on a trip to the United States Attorney’s office in Marquette with Ron and Jamie. Daunis is still ignoring Jamie for his betrayal of her, so she only interacts with Ron on the car ride. Ron explains Daunis’s role as a confidential informant. Daunis feels like they’re asking her to spy on her community and family members, and while she wants to use her position and her knowledge of both science and the cultural teachings to help with the investigation, she thinks to herself, after being asked to look through trash from the hockey players’ homes, “I’m helping to investigate Travis and the other meth heads in the Sault. I won’t be snooping on Levi or any of my friends. The FBI won’t change who I am, I vow silently” (127). Ron informs Daunis that she will be learning how to make meth in order to help figure out how Travis was making his. Ron also wants Daunis and Jamie to pose as boyfriend and girlfriend so no one grows suspicious of the increased amount of time they will be spending together. Ron ends the conversation by telling Daunis that she can apply for membership in her tribe before she turns 19 in a few weeks.
