In Chapter Twenty, Liz announces that she's seeing someone else and McCall says that it's the first time he's been hurt by a woman. He says he doesn't blame her and admits that he wouldn't have stayed around as long as she did, but he is depressed afterward. In chapter twenty-one, McCall writes about the sexual frustrations, including an incident in which an openly gay man who looks like a woman and calls himself Pauline is the object of jealousy between two rival gangs. McCall says he battles the sexual tension daily, hates a teacher because she keeps the hormones of every man in the place in turmoil simply by being near, and vows that when he's out of prison he'll never again hurt any woman.
