Part 3, Chapter 46 Summary

At Alan’s urging, Eddie is preparing for his first Tinder date. It’s his mother’s birthday, so they have lunch together and see a couple that makes her stop eating and who he recognizes vaguely. Realizing that it’s Sarah’s parents, he again wonders who died when he saw the funeral procession if not one of them. Sarah’s mother takes a phone call, and they both leave hurriedly. Carole is disgusted, and they leave the restaurant with her claiming that her birthday has been ruined and refusing to eat even when they arrive back to her home. As Eddie moves to leave, Carole begins to admit something. Haltingly, she finally tells him that Sarah has been back in England for six months and is pregnant, which she learned from Hannah. Eddie begs for details and learns that Sarah has been depressed and unwilling to share the identity of the child’s father. Carole at first refuses to give the due date but finally reveals that it was six days previous, making Eddie the father. She reluctantly tells Eddie where to find the Harringtons’ number, which he takes as a very small but significant gesture. When they aren’t home, he obtains Hannah’s number from Alan but finds that her phone is turned off.
