Adam narrates this chapter and describes his school field trip to a museum. Adam tries to get Charlie to go with him to see an 800-year-old labyrinth modeled from a French cathedral with the most intricate labyrinth design ever created. Charlie whines that it’s cold and not even a real maze.

Charlie leaves the labyrinth, but Adam continues walking along its path. Soon, he hears footsteps behind him and turns around. Emerald walks past without looking at him. They come physically close to each other, but they don't talk. Finally, Adam stands in the center of the labyrinth and Emerald’s walk has ended in the same place where Adam is. She turns around to leave without saying anything, but Adam tells her not to leave. He tells Emerald that it feels like a divorce to him, when they don't talk, "'like we're all gonna be sent to different families’” (141). Emerald responds by bringing up Camila and saying she saw Adam and Camila doing more than kissing. Adam responds that it wasn’t what it looked like because Camila puked on the floor of his van five seconds after they were kissing. Emerald asks Adam if Camila and he are going out now.
