Aven is excited to have Connor and Zion visit on Saturday until Connor mentions that Amanda plays the piano. Aven half-heartedly suggests that Connor invite Amanda to Stagecoach Pass, but is not happy when Connor agrees, or happy that he plans to visit Amanda at her house after school next week. Aven asks if they know about “the Man” and Zion says his parents know all about him, which is why they opened their own comic shop. Aven plays some punk music and mentions that Trilby’s dad was in a punk band. Zion has a crush on Trilby. They visit the smoothie shop to say hi to Trilby, but Zion is too shy to speak to her. The three go to get ice cream instead but find Henry in a state of confusion. The boys stay with him while Aven gets her dad. Henry is improved when Aven returns, and shares a story from his youth, when he was in Angel Guardian, one of the many orphanages that he grew up in. The orphanages were okay, but not like having a family. Some of the nuns were nice to Henry, but others struck him.
