Initially, Nora's attempts at Facebook stalking aren't especially productive. The last few days, Roger's wall has been flooded with well-wishers, gawkers, and shit-stirrers all attempting to talk to him about the incident but relatively little activity from Roger himself. As things start to quiet down, though, he does post again. On Thursday, he makes a joke about how it's Waldoboro's turn to risk an away meet and later posts a set of photographs of the bay. On Friday, he posts a set of photographs of the lighthouse, earning some curiosity and complaints from his friends, though he insists the location was already on his list. For real, guys!!

Eventually, though, he does make plans with a couple of friends (none of which Nora knows) to go to the movies on Saturday and see Bohemian Rhapsody. Perfect! Nora, Liam, and Mason show up at the theatre early hoping to see the boy in his natural habitat. He's the third to arrive and goes to meet his friends without noticing the Finchwood trio. The exchange between them seems normal enough and Roger himself seems normal enough too. Soon, they go into the small arcade built into the lobby of the theatre to kill some time before the show and the Finchwood students follow. Roger ends up being the odd man out when his two friends start playing a fighting game, so he heads to an odd, outdated shooter with two plastic guns and starts the play. Seeing her opportunity, Nora goes to join him. He offers her a grin, seeming to recognize her from the store, and engages her in small talk while they shoot ghosts. They actually make quite a duo! When they eventually are killed, he keeps talking to her and when she shrieks about a spider he just looks around for it and asks if she's scared of spiders?

Before they can have a conversation about it, his friends appear to pull him away. He tells her it was an honor trying to save the town from a witch with her and heads off with his friends.
