Chase goes to a Hiawassee Hurricanes football scrimmage as a representative of the video club since his concussion precludes him from playing. He feels out of place holding the camera and awkward about belonging to the video club. Though the crowd is small, Chase’s father is present with his stepsister. Hiawassee does poorly, and Frank complains constantly. Helene plays with a Barbie doll collection and asks when they can leave. Chase begins to understand what is happening on the field and appreciates it when his father agrees with him. When Frank criticizes Chase for not being on the field, Chase promises to play again as soon as the doctor releases him. Helene squeals with delight, and Chase suddenly remembers making her squeal in terror when he ripped the head off her teddy bear. Refocusing on the football game, he pushes the negative memory out of his mind.
After the scrimmage, Chase goes to the locker room and sees another video club member, Hugo, being bullied and denied entrance by the team. Hugo says their teacher sent him in case Chase forgot to take videos of the team. Chase takes Hugo in with him and interacts with the other players, who are glad to see him but demean Hugo.
