Chapter 26 Summary

After school lets out, Frankie asks Marjolie about the summer program at the rec center. Marjolie breaks down and admits that she knew about Angelique’s friendship with Livia. The whole story spills out. Marjolie talked Angelique into enrolling in the class at the rec center. Marjolie had a crush on a boy at the center called DommyJ. Dommy was older, and he got Marjolie a fake ID so she could party with him. He asked her to bring a friend with her, and she asked Angelique to join them.

Angelique realized that Dommy was just using Marjolie. A few days later, Angelique confronted Dommy and loudly denounced his fake IDs as worthless. Livia joined in and went into detail regarding exactly what was wrong with Dommy’s fakes—they didn’t have the right hologram or laser printing or any of the other security features. The confrontation was broken up by the rec center director, Frederic Lagudu.

Marjolie shows Frankie and Lotham the ID Dommy gave her. It is nowhere near as good as the one Angelique dropped outside the phone store. After Angelique’s confrontation with Dommy, Marjolie had a fight with Angelique. She hadn’t wanted Angelique to confront Dommy; he was dangerous and had dangerous friends.
