Finally Seen

Mom excitedly tells Pete that the 99 Ranch will buy his strawberries and broccoli, but Pete is disappointed with the negotiated price. He revokes the salary advance. Back at home, Millie misspells a word when she and Lina try to email customers waiting for bath bombs, and Lina sees that even a student with spelling awards makes mistakes.

Lina and Finn meet up in the library to discuss the books they recommended to each other. Lina tells Finn in English about Lao Lao, and Finn has the idea for Lina to write and draw a graphic novel to send her. Finn asks Lina to go with him to recommend New Kid and Flea Shop to Mrs. Carter for read-aloud time. Lina is scared but goes along.

Lina tries to tell Mrs. Carter about Flea Shop and why she likes it so much; the words seem on the tip of her tongue in English, but other students enter the room, and she loses her nerve. Still, Lina is pleased with the number of people she is feeling more comfortable with speaking in English.
