What to Say Next

Mandip sends Kit an email late at night about the five stages of grief. They conclude that the list should include food items and agree that they are both in the “depression” stage. Later, Kit struggles to smile pleasantly when she meets her friends at the Pizza Palace, an after-school ritual. Kit only attended to avoid being alone in her car, which causes her anxiety since her father’s accident.

Gabriel, whom Kit previously dated, flirts with her, which she dislikes. Annie has a crush on Gabriel, but Kit considers him not good enough for her friend. Jessica, Willow, and Abby, a trio of popular girls that Kit finds boring, join them. They further irritate Kit by interrogating her about her friendship with David before quickly discussing prom, another thing that Kit finds unimportant.

Later that night, Kit, exhausted, thinks about how she dwells on the crash instead of sleeping at night. When a key unlocks their front door, she and Mandip are both irritated to see that it’s Jack, as they had an instinctual but irrational hope that it was Robert. He confesses that he was worried when Mandip didn’t answer her cell phone. Jack casually talks about Kit’s prom, but when he tries to bring up the will, Mandip brushes him off and leaves the room.
