Vera has gone from being well-liked by all the girls at camp to being very unpopular. She attempts to get back into their good graces by completing her drawing of Alexei, but instead the Sashas tease her and insist that she’s in love with him. Vera decides that she no longer wants to work for their friendship and that she will spend the last week of camp entirely by herself. Natasha asks her how she’s doing when she notices Vera stomping off into the woods angrily and Vera replies that she doesn’t need anyone, including Natasha. That night, Vera is assigned to flag watch to protect it from the boys. Her fellow guard goes off to talk to some friends and Vera realizes that she urgently needs to use the bathroom. She doesn’t want to leave the flag unattended, so she brings it with her to the outhouse or “Hollywood.” Unfortunately, Alexei sneaks in while she is using the bathroom and steals the flag from her. Vera’s already low popularity among the girls continues to plummet.
Vera spends the next several days continuing to be ostracized.
