Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Teemu finds Ramona after her passing, having driven through the storm to check on her when she did not answer his phone call. He weeps beside her bed, then carries her to the car. He surprises himself by calling Peter. Despite their long-standing hate for each other, they both were raised by and loved Ramona. Peter goes to where Teemu has parked his car while, across Beartown and Hed, news spreads about her death. Maya texts Leo to tell him that she is coming home, but to keep it a secret so she will not burden her parents with her travel plans. Leo plays first-person-shooter games on his computer when the electricity comes back, not knowing that the player who always kills him is Matteo. Matteo’s religious parents frown upon video games, so his computer is made from old parts he scavenged.
Peter reaches Teemu and helps move Ramona to the back seat; then Peter calls the undertaker. The two men wait outside his office for hours and watch firefighters try to clear the road. They comfort each other and bond over their love for Ramona. They almost talk about more emotional things, but instead hide their feelings behind discussions of hockey.
