Chapter 10 Summary: “Eight a.m.”

Wren makes her father a pancake breakfast, and they banter after she sings “Happy Birthday.” She is nervous because she is going to the Center today to get birth control pills, as she discussed with her boyfriend, Ryan. She doesn’t want to tell her dad and thinks that this is part of her birthday gift for him—to let him think of her as a little girl for a while longer. Hugh wonders if this is the peak of his life now that he has hit 40. Bex calls and wishes him a happy birthday.

Janine wakes up, says a prayer for the child she never had, and then puts on a blonde wig. She hopes that she can make a difference in even one woman’s life.

Olive lies in bed, looking at Peg. She thinks about telling her about the cancer diagnosis but decides to let them live in happiness for a little longer.

Joy wakes up early after dreaming of holding a baby boy in a blue blanket. She had the same dream the night before she took her pregnancy test. She gets a rideshare to the Center and has him let her out a few blocks early.
