Chapter 19 Summary: “The Kitchen I”

At the pickleball courts, Leslee insists on partnering with Phoebe even though Delilah and Phoebe usually pair up. Leslee consistently cheats by volleying from the kitchen—the no-go zone next to the net—which is against the rules. When Delilah calls her out on it, Leslee denies it. Delilah is incensed that no one else says anything.

Chapter 20 Summary: “Thursday, August 22, 9:30 PM”

The narrative returns to the present.

Zara and Ed speak to Kacy, assuming she might know something about Coco’s background. However, everything Kacy knows is from Coco’s screenplay. When Zara asks about Coco’s romantic life, Kacy hesitates to answer.

Chapter 21 Summary: “Firecracker”

The narrative flashes back to the past.

The Richardsons throw a Fourth of July party aboard Hedonism, inviting fewer than half the guests from their first one. Delilah makes the cut, to her relief. Sharon and Romeo are also both invited, but Sharon is declined a plus-one when she asks if she can bring her sister Heather. Heather is happy to stay home so Sharon can attend. Eric and Avalon decline.

The Richardsons’ names sound familiar to Heather. She looks them up and realizes that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)—a regulatory body in charge of all companies that offer stock—did a preliminary investigation into Sweetwater Distribution, the company Bull owns.
