Chapter 10 Summary: “Visiting Hours”

Jade is fired from her job as a janitor for carving the graffiti in the bathroom. She returns home, thinking that she has no future and will never be able to make it out of Proofrock without money. She tries to watch slasher movies to comfort herself but finds them strangely unsatisfying. When she wakes up, she goes to eat a sandwich in the kitchen, but her father comes home with his old high school friends, including Clate Rodgers, the former boyfriend of Melanie Hardy who was with her when she drowned. Jade escapes out of the backdoor and is forced to wear her work coveralls again. She decides to go back to the construction staging ground for Terra Nova to look around.

At the construction site, she meets Shooting Glasses again, still driving the abandoned car that was once Sven and Lotte’s. They talk and bond over Jade’s encyclopedic knowledge of horror. Shooting Glasses finally explains what happened to Greyson Brust. Greyson was a construction worker who was helping to lay the foundation for the Mondragon house, but he fell into a cave that was under the building site. When they pulled him out, he acted strange and animalistic, walking on all fours.
