Things are coming to a head. A graduation party turns scandalous — and produces some much needed evidence. Margaret finally loses her patience with Walt, and what follows between them is a long time coming. Loss has a way of changing people, and these pages don't let anyone off easy. To top it all off, Charlotte and Margaret have their first major friendship fight, and it doesn't end well for either of them.

We discuss the cost of speaking up, whether women — and men — can really “have it all,” and what happens when best friends tell each other the truth, even when it hurts.
