As Yetta grows increasingly cold and distant, the girls confront her about avoiding them, insisting they care. When the class begins, their behavior draws the teacher Mrs. Felix's attention, who reprimands Yetta harshly. Hurt and confused, Yetta struggles with whether the harassment is merely childish teasing or something more painful, ending the episode with her questioning the cruelty she endures.
