Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Early the next morning, Daniel gets a call from one of his neighbors saying that another neighbor hasn’t come in to work yet and that he is worried that it might be a medical concern, as the missing neighbor, Popeye, is in his nineties. Alexis comes with him, and when they get to Popeye’s house, she reveals that she is a doctor and helps Popeye, who had fallen and could not get up. While Popeye gets ready for the day, Daniel tells Alexis that because they cannot get many medical services in their small rural town, the residents have to take care of each other. Daniel notices that Alexis must have put on makeup before he woke up and tells her she doesn’t have to do that for him, but Alexis doesn’t seem to believe him. When he offers to take her out for breakfast, Alexis declines, and she gives a noncommittal response when Daniel asks when he can see her again. At the local diner, Popeye tells Daniel that he knows Alexis will come back because their town is magic, and it always brings back people who belong there. When Daniel gets home, he notices that another of his hoodies is missing.
