Olive goes to the restaurant where Harvard’s biology department took Adam for dinner. She plans to surreptitiously get Adam’s attention and motion for him to check his phone before leaving, but he sees her immediately and leaves his dinner meeting to talk to her. Tom interrupts them, and Adam orders him to leave, his “voice low and cold” (324). Tom refuses to go, and Olive starts playing the recording of Tom’s insults.
Adam explodes with anger, threatening to kill Tom if he says anything else about “the woman [he] love[s]” and throwing him against the wall (326). Olive begs him to stop. He does and goes to her, comforting her before answering to the confused and angry Harvard professors. Adam says he will take care of everything with Harvard. When he’s done, he’ll find Olive and “take care of [her]” (327).
At the San Francisco airport, Olive and Malcolm wait for Adam and Holden’s flight to land. Olive checks her email and finds four messages from researchers who’d love to have Olive in their labs, one of which is local. Shortly after, Adam and Holden arrive, and Holden proposes the four of them have dinner together. Adam doesn’t want to go, but Olive talks him into it.
