Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Three years ago, Mother went to Sydney, Australia, in search of his wife and children after his wife was spotted at the airport there. After the long flight and change of seasons, he found himself exhausted after checking several schools for his daughter. He arrived at a boarding school where he pretended to be a police officer in search of missing children. During a conversation with the headmistress, a statue on the school grounds exploded. A girl named Olivia was brought into the office, and the headmistress professed to all the trouble Olivia caused. The headmistress asked Mother to arrest Olivia, and Mother had no choice but to play along. He took Olivia, and she immediately admitted to knowing that he was not a real officer. Mother found himself already liking Olivia for her honesty and cleverness. She told him about her misdeeds and the reasons for them, citing systemic injustice at the school and a history of racial intolerance. When Olivia talked about justice and knowing that it is the responsibility of everyone to uphold, Mother realized he found his next spy.
