Back at school, Gulliver is trying to figure out how to get along with his new friends. He's worried that they're going to call him a "friend" instead of a "brother" or a "sister" , and he's also worried about what they'll think of him if they call him "friendless" . But he doesn't care, because he wants to be friends again. He wants to know more about them, so that he can kill his "sixth-grade self" if he needs to.
