The whole family, including Bel, Carter, Rachel, Grandma Susan, Dad, Bel, Sherry, Yordan (Grandpa’s carer), and Grandpa have dinner together. The event is filmed by the documentary crew, and the dinner is emotionally charged and awkward. Sherry makes an inappropriate comment to the effect that being kept in a basement is a great diet technique. Sherry also tries to control Carter’s eating, while Rachel, contradicting Sherry, gives Carter more food. Rachel continues to struggle to remember that her daughter now goes by Bel, not Anna. Rachel also mentions that Charlie dated another woman while she was gone, Ellen. Sherry insinuates that Rachel had an affair before she disappeared. Rachel learns that her mother, Susan, believed that Charlie was guilty of her murder and therefore avoided both him and Bel; she is angry with her mother for abandoning Bel. Bel raises her glass in a toast to “the most fucked up family in America” (147).

Outside, Ash and Bel discuss the events of the dinner. Bel tells Ash about the baby sock, but Ash insists that it is not strong enough evidence of wrongdoing. Bel is interested in Sherry’s comment about Rachel’s potential affair and vows to find out more.
