be with Breckenridge again, to his dismay. Over the course of the week, being Breckenridge's buddy begins to exhaust Nate, who still feels like he remembers Breckenridge. The next day back at school, Nate and his friends learn from Nate's dramatic friend Dee Dee that PS. 38 is having a centennial, and it will have a large scavenger hunt. Nate shows Breckenridge the flyer for the celebration and scavenger hunt, and even though Breckenridge is initially uninterested, he decides to join Nate's team. Just as Nate is about to go to BBC, he thinks about leaving Breckenridge again, but a combination of guilt and Principal Nichols spying on him makes him change his mind.
