Lost in the Sun

On Friday, Mr. Gorman asks Trent again if he’ll like the kid he meets, and Trent sits out again. At lunch, Trent jokes around and makes Fallon laugh. She invites Trent over to watch Field of Dreams again, and upon realizing that it will make him miss dinner with his dad again, he agrees.

Fallon’s dad is a police officer who leaves Fallon and Trent to watch their movie. Fallon excitedly shows Trent all the continuity errors, and he finds some of his own. She loves movies and wants to be a script supervisor. She can recite movie lines perfectly, which impresses Trent. Fallon wants to watch more movies together and start a club. Trent isn’t sure, but he admits that Fallon is nice company.

At home, Trent learns that his dad was mad that he missed dinner again. He also learns that Aaron won’t be going to their dad’s with Trent and Doug tomorrow morning because he has work. Trent wishes he had the same excuse. Aaron sneaks out later that evening to meet Clarisse, and when Trent asks him about it, he dodges the question.
