Jonah and Violet arrive at Wendy’s home with few possessions. Wendy remembers being the first person to ever hold him and how she sang to him. She tells him that the guest room and bathroom are ready for him, and she is pleased that he is kinder to her than he is to Violet. Violet gets ready to leave, and Wendy suggests that Violet have dinner with Jonah, thinking that Violet is being let off too easy. Violet hesitates and says how busy she is. Jonah surmises from the expensive Chicago apartment that Wendy is rich, and Wendy points out that Violet is rich as well. He asks about her parents, and she tells him that they will love Jonah and are excited to meet him. She tells him that her husband died of renal cancer.

Jonah’s return has caused a strain on Violet’s marriage. She thinks about Wendy and Jonah and hopes they are not doing drugs or drinking together. Matt, Violet’s husband, asks Violet how the day went, and she notes how few possessions Jonah has, and how she realized that she knows barely anything about him. Matt reminds her that because they do not know him, he is a bit of a wild card.
