After filling out a survey that gives the phone numbers of a person's best matches at school, Hannah is clearly upset when Clay isn't one of her matches. However, Marcus says she's his first match and asks her to the diner for milkshakes — but he shows up an hour late with half the basketball team. After attempting to take advantage of her in the booth because he 'thought she was easy,' he leaves, and Marcus's friend Zach Dempsey tries to comfort her. She's too far gone in feeling used though and mistakes his kindness for a trick, which causes her to push him away and him to steal from her 'compliment bag' in communications class. She confronts his hurtful actions with a letter explaining the dark place she's in and (thinks she) sees him throw it to the floor after reading.
ハンナの個人的な詩が全校に配布された雑誌に掲載されました。
Feeling lost, Hannah attends a poetry class, where she notices a classmate of hers, Ryan, who publishes a magazine. Hannah reads a deep poem to the group, which Ryan steals and publishes anonymously the next day. Although no one knows it's Hannah's poem, her spirit is crushed. She cuts off all her hair off symbolically at the end of the school year and attends a party at Jessica's house over the Summer, looking to see Clay, the only person who seems to make her feel better. They kiss in Jessica's room, but Hannah is so upset over the actions of the other boys she's dealt with through the last school year that she pushes him away.
