Chapter 28 Summary

Grant goes through his workday, trying to focus on his responsibilities to close out the writing stage of the show. He is distracted by thoughts of Helen, who continues her work on set and shepherds her father around. She tries to tell herself that the pain and awkwardness of avoiding Grant might somehow have artistic value and inspire her to write something authentic, full of pain and drama. Helen drops her father off, and while thinking about what she can have for dinner, she is in a sudden and disorienting car accident.

Chapter 29 Summary

Helen wakes up in a hospital and is surprised to see Suraya. The doctor tells Helen she has multiple broken bones. Suraya tells her, kindly but firmly, that it was awkward that Helen listed her as an emergency contact without her knowledge. Suraya goes on to say that it is important for creative people to remember that personal drama is actually a distraction from work, as is unresolved family tension. Helen promises to keep this in mind and asks to see Nicole and Saskia before Grant or her parents. Grant, in the waiting room, feels very awkward when Suraya tells him to take time off in light of Helen’s accident.
