Dawn drives to Denny’s place to return his truck, but no one is home except for Mamaw’s sister, Aunt Ohio, who is drunk and lying flat on the carpet. Without anyone to take her home, she takes off in the truck again and heads back home. When she gets there, Albert, who had been in the hospital after the fight with Dawn left him injured, confronts her about stealing Hubert’s truck along with the beer. He tells her that Hubert is going to be angry with her when gets out of jail, where he has been since he got into a fight with the group of girls outside the liquor store.
Dawn enters Mamaw’s house, still upset with Albert for trying to fight her. She thinks about all the kind things Mamaw has done to care for her and that helps her to calm down. Dawn leaves again and walks out to her Papaw Houston’s house. He notices that she looks tired and tells her to go take a rest in the bedroom.
The next morning, Aunt Ohio is at Houston’s door with food. Dawn asks Papaw Houston if he loved Mamaw or Aunt Ohio more, but he won’t say anything, stating: “You are too young for us to drink enough for me to tell you of my courtship of your grandmother and her sister.
