Pages 76-104 Summary

Amanda wakes Nina up and helps her pack her things, reluctant to be separated from her daughter for even a moment. However, as she packs, Amanda starts to think that her fear validates Carla’s crazy story. Instead of leaving immediately, she decides to apologize to the woman and convince her that nothing is wrong with David. In the hospital bed, David tells Amanda that this is “a mistake”; it is the moment where everything will start to go wrong.

Amanda drives to the farm where Carla works. She tells the other woman that her husband needs her back in the city, but Carla insists on showing Amanda Omar’s stables before she leaves. Amanda agrees, and she and Nina go outside, waiting for Carla to finish her work. In the driveway, a group of men unload large plastic drums from the back of a truck. They wear plastic gloves for protection, and Nina sits in the grass, fascinated by the activity.

David interrupts to tell Amanda that they have arrived at the important moment. He presses her to describe the details of the scene, but Amanda insists that there is nothing else.
