On his way home from school, Miah hears Carlton calling him. Catching up to him, Carlton asks Miah about his new school and makes a comment about the ill-fitting Percy uniform. The boys discuss the weak Percy basketball team, with Carlton reminding Miah he has had bad days too. Carlton asks about Jeremiah’s family situation and feels sorry that Miah is going through all of this. They finish with a discussion about being from a mixed-race family and how liking a girl who is white is not the worst thing that could happen.
