Judy and her husband, Francis, take Lily to the Morrison Planetarium. The driveway in front of the California Academy of the Sciences reminds her of coming out of her dormitory in China and seeing military vehicles rolling down the streets.

The planetarium is the most advanced in the country, and Francis explains that American scientists built everything; nothing had come from the Germans in Europe. They take their seats, and the show begins with stars moving across the “sky” (the underside of the planetarium dome) above them. Lily’s in awe, and Judy’s still trying to ground herself in the US, where things are different than they are in China.

When Lily meets Kath to go the Telegraph Club on Friday, Jean is with her, and though they went to the same high school, Jean comments that she doesn’t remember Lily, who refrains from making the same remark. Both Kath and Jean are in pants, and Lily feels somewhat self-conscious in a skirt.

The bouncer remembers Jean and welcomes the trio in. Lily tries to pay Kath back for the beers the time before, but Kath refuses. The show starts, and Lily tries to immerse herself in Tommy’s singing. Eventually, two others who know Jean join them.
