Chapter 75 Summary: “Clark Kent”

At the eye clinic, Patrice gets a pair of glasses. Wood Mountain says she looks like Clark Kent. On their way home, they flirt, which ends with them having sex. Exhilarated, she has a hard time coming down from the feeling, but she refuses to let him in the house.

Chapter 76 Summary: “Checks”

Millie and Grace are out shopping, and Millie is running out of patterned clothing. Ultimately, she finds a shirt she feels matches her whirling mind.

Chapter 77 Summary: “The Lamanites”

Thomas reads the Book of Mormon before going back to study the bill. Watkins is constantly on his mind; he recently refused funding for the Navajo. To Watkins, Mormonism meant that Mormons were owed all land they wanted and that Indigenous peoples were cursed. Ultimately, Thomas thinks about how crazy the book is, comparing it to others he was familiar with such as the Sky Woman and the Nanabozho stories.
