Liz and Amanda begin to reconcile. They finally manage to speak when Liz spots Amanda in the parking lot of the mall where the music store is. Liz apologizes to Amanda for lying to her and admits that she needs the scholarship money to go to college. Liz comes clean, telling Amanda that she knew she wouldn’t have a chance of winning if it got out that they were together. Amanda apologizes as well, admitting that she was so upset that she wasn’t able to see where Liz might have been coming from. They both part on good terms. Though their friendship is not back to the way it was before, things between them are beginning to improve. 

Walking into school, Liz is delighted that she and Amanda have begun to text more often. Things between them are already beginning to feel more like the way they used to be. Before Liz can get far, she is sidelined by Britt and Robbie. They begin to warn her but not before she catches sight of a new campaign poster that says, “Liz Lighty is Only Queen of the Queers” (151). At that moment, Campbell Confidential lights up with recorded snippets of Liz’s private conversation with Amanda, where she says, “you like girls, so do I” (151).
