After killing Holly and Robin, Millicent and the narrator started looking up potential women to kill online, then describing potential murder methods as an “aphrodisiac.”

The narrator takes Jenna to taekwondo, which she decides she does not like. He takes her to Krav Maga. She hits a boy with a rock. Some parents call the police, who do not arrest anyone, but Jenna is not allowed to come back to Krav Maga class. She tells the narrator she just wanted to see if she could do it. She did hit him, but she barely cut his lip, which the narrator secretly thinks would not be that helpful if she were facing a real serial killer.

Due to Jenna’s condition, the narrator wants to stop the Owen scheme. Millicent agrees to kill Naomi while the narrator writes a letter from “Owen” to Josh, claiming to have left town.

The narrator says that after he killed Holly, Millicent cleaned up the body before the kids got home, seeming instantly to know what to do. The same thing happened after Millicent killed Robin.
