Today it’s Sunday and A is Roger Wilson, who goes with his family to church. After church, they head to Roger’s grandmother’s house for Sunday dinner. A reflects on religion, noting that “religions have much, much more in common than they like to admit. The beliefs are almost always the same” (77). S/he also reflects on Roger’s mother, a single mother, “who is so tired, so taxed. I feel as much belief in her as I do in God—I find faith in human perseverance, even as the universe throws challenge after challenge our way” (78). A feels this may be one of the reasons s/he is so drawn to Rhiannon, because of her similar desire to persevere.

It’s a three-hour drive to the grandmother’s house, and it is not until the end of the day when A finally gets a chance to use the computer. A emails Rhiannon, pretending he is Nathan. But when he checks his personal email, he finds a warning from the real Nathan Daldry. A is shocked to get this email from Nathan, who somehow knows that he lost possession of his body and that A took over: “I will not let you possess me or destroy my life.
